Daily Essential Moisturiser 50+ Reviews

I have huge bottle of this 100mL so using it up on my body (shoulders, chest, arms, legs). It is rich, moisturizing, leaves my (in summer oily, normal otherwise, huge pores) skin extra shiny accentuating my big pores. Also since it leaves my skin with shiny gloss, it darkens/accentuates visually my splotchy (now very faint otherwise, only noticeable by me) melasma bits.

Since this spf has only chemical filters I need to apply it often trough the day since it (filters) degrades. Big no no for those with melasma.

Now. This is my big issue with this formula: Burns eyes! Adn even though I avoid applying it close to my mouth (just around the lips), the bitter chemical intense taste in my mouth persists for hours after even taking the sunscreen off. My back of throat gets red too and is slightly sore/irritated. Never understood why, then realized that when my eyes were burning and watering badly, tear ducts would carry the chemical components trough the lacrimal sac of the eye , via the nasal cavity, then back of the throat. And the taste was so bad on my tongue.

The watering was so unbearable and the burn. Had to take the spf off. Taste persisted for coule of hours after. Eyes calmed down. Redness gone within an hourish after. Very unbearable sunscreen!

Have used and still using a few AlphaH goodies and love them. Shame they do not have a good sunscreen.

I really enjoy the texture and finish of this product in that it is quite mattifying which I like with my oily combo skin. My friend with dry skin tried it though and found it wasn’t hydrating enough for her taste.
The main issue I have with it, which I can deal with while I use this tube but probably won’t repurchase based on my own preferences, is that it has a tint. The tint disappears on your face completely, BUT, when you wash your hands (if you’ve applied with your hands) or face, the tint then ends up on your towels. I have light towels normally so I can’t use them when I use this product. Otherwise it’s a really nice product.

I have been searching for a moisturiser that contains SPF 30+ that is suitable for my oil-prone skin. I think I have finally found it. My skin usually gets quite congested and shiny when using a facial lotion with sunscreen in it which is quite frustrating. I realised my last moisturiser was causing my skin to become heavily congested. I switched to Alpha-H a couple of months ago and my skin has mostly cleared up.

This moisturiser is great for anyone who has oily skin and hates the greasy feeling some lotions have. It absorbs really quickly and leaves a matte look upon my face. My makeup sits nicely on top of this product and it's a great primer. My skin stays mostly matte throughout the day which is rare for me when I use a product with sunscreen in it.

My skin can be quite sensitive and it's had no issues with this product. I'm really happy I discovered this moisturiser. I have been a fan of this brand for awhile now and really like this product! Definitely recommend it :)

I have enjoyed a lot of Alpha-H products to date but this moisturiser was disappointing.

The texture is fairly lightweight but I experience unpleasant tingling for a few minutes every time. I haven't been able to figure out why or what the source is judging by the ingredients. The SPF in this formulation also often leaves my face with a slight white cast and there is a discernible sunscreen scent. While it does keep my face minimally moisturised throughout the day, when I first use it, it leaves my face shiny and a bit slick, and by the end of the day my face is oily when I am normally prone to dry skin.

I also have problems with extracting the moisturiser from the tube. The design doesn't allow me sufficient control over the amount I want to use and I often find myself squeezing too much or too little. I think a pump design would probably be preferable.

The SPF level is also too low for daily use and I usually prefer and recommend SPF50+. There are other dual-moisturisers with SPF50+ on the market. Having said that, I believe the improved version of this product has since been reformulated to SPF50+.

I was looking very hard for a daily spf and moisturiser when I stumbled upon this one- and I'm glad I did!
I find when applying moisturiser and then spf on top, there is too much product on the skin and it begins rolling/piling. I often find spfs leave my face greasy and makeup doesn't apply nicely on top.
With this daily moisturiser my issues have been resolved. It pleasant to apply and sinks in easily, doesn't leave my skin greasy and makeup goes on top easily.
Why 4 stars and not 5?: I haven't noticed difference in my skin and it is a pricey product for how much you get.

I love my Alpha H products and this is one of the best moistures on the market with SPF, it won't leave that 'white pates' on your face and absorbs well. I also don't break out from this product

I've been using this moisturiser for three weeks now and am loving it so far! I bought it because I was buying the Liquid Gold on Beauty Bay and figured I would need a good moisturiser to go with it and it just so happened that BB had a deal where both could be bought together so a fair bit cheaper so it worked out really well!

I love the packaging of this moisturiser - it comes in a tube so there'll be very little waste when you start finishing the product and it comes with a pump too so you don't need to fuss with lids or getting your nails in a jar etc. So ten out of ten for packaging - I haven't used a product before that comes in a squeezy tube and had a pump dispenser as well so I'm really happy with this.

The actual product is lovely - it's light and has a very mild scent and is absorbed into the skin really easily. I do normally have problem skin and am glad to say that so far this hasn't caused any breakouts like most products with SPF do for me.

It definitely doesn't have a matte finish so if you're wearing makeup over it you'll probably need a primer. I prefer my makeup to be dewy so I actually prefer the sort of shiny finish. I still follow with my Laura Mercier radiance primer and then with foundation etc and find that this moisturiser lasts really well under all of that.

I get a bit oily in the T zone throughout the day but I think that has more to do with my actual skin than it does with the moisturiser.

I'm taking one star off because almost $50 RRP for a 50mL is pretty pricey, even though it's a good product. I would repurchase again based on the quality and packaging but if I found a similar product for less (which I'm sure there are a lot of out there) and couldn't get this cheaper in a deal like I did on BB, I would probably consider trying something else.

Overall great product! Maybe not worth the full price but if you can get it on sale or with a discount then it's well worth trying!

I received the 30ml tube in the travel size kit. This moisturiser has a high protection SPF 30+. Perfect for outdoors. This is the first moisturiser that I have purchased that contains SPF. It is a light moisturiser, absorbs quickly and does not feel sticky at all. Ideal for all ages ranging from 20 to 40 year olds. I am impressed that it is a 3 in 1 moisturiser that contains vitamin E, aloe vera and prevents premature ageing. Excited to try other products in the Alpha-H range.

I received a generous 30ml sample of this as a gift with purchase and decided to take it with me on a recent holiday as it was a moisturiser and sunscreen in one and cut down on one extra product I'd have to pack.

I've heard very positive reviews and feedback on AlphaH and was keen to try this product out. On application, I found the product to be quite light in texture, had a recognisable sunscreen scent and a little went a long way. Following application, my skin felt very smooth - almost velvety to the touch. Unfortunately by the end of the day my combination skin felt very greasy/oily.

Unfortunately not suitable for my combination/acne prone skin.
