Skin & Co Truffle Serum & Olive Sier Oil: Review


I have an awesome review for you all today, that I have been looking forward to writing since the first time I tried the products but I wanted to give them a few weeks so I could be as in depth with this review as possible.  For my birthday in June, a friend of mine gave me a gift certificate to Skin & Co which is a skincare company that has a wide range of products ranging from your face to your body and even some aromatherapy candles. If you want to know more about Skin & Co and how they started click HERE. I ordered two products from the line and I was super excited when they arrived with 8 samples in tow, I love when companies include samples, but this was extra special because they were so generous with the amount they sent. I have been sampling them and falling in love, adding things to my "must try" list as I go. Now, let's talk about the full sized products that I tried.

Sier-Oil 

What they say...
  • Serum & Facial Oil in one
  • Combination of olive oil, panthenol, bee's wax and pro-vitamin B5 
  • Addresses dry skin 
  • Reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles 
  • Shea Butter adds deep hydration 
  • Deep conditioning, natural effect 
What I say...

PROS 
  • Softens and hydrates skin 
  • Absorbs quickly 
  • Amazing smell 
  • Lightweight 
  • Diminishes pores 
  • Firming qualities around the eye area 
  • Easy application with a dropper (pictured below)
CONS
  • I haven't noticed any firming qualities in my neck area 
  • The price is higher than what I would *usually* consider
The Verdict...

Easy Dropper Application

This is one of those purchases that I could not be happier about, it is an amazing addition to my skin care routine. I have never tried anything that I have honestly loved this much. It's the best thing I have ever used on my face, It has completely helped with evening out my skin tone. It's working amazing for added hydration. It absorbs so quickly that you barely noticed that you have applied an oil to your face. I like to see where else things can work so I have also been trying this out as a cuticle oil with the residue left on my hands after applying it and it totally makes my cuticles softer. This stuff is amazing, and I definitely plan to repurchase, I am always a drug store girl, but when I find something that does magic I will absolutely put the money out for it. Holy Grail right here people!



Hydro-Truffle Face Serum 

What they say...
  • Prevent and fight the signs of aging 
  • Increases water levels 
  • Tones and brightens 
  • Moisturizes and Revitalizes 
What I say...

PROS 
  • Absorbs quickly 
  • Refreshing gel like feeling 
  • Lightweight 
  • Leaves skin plump looking 
  • Firms around the eye area
CONS
  • Bit of an alcohol like smell 
The Verdict...

This product is definitely not as "life changing" as the sier-oil but it is most definitely up there. It's super moisturizing and leaves your skin feeling refreshed and moisturized. It is lightweight enough to use in place of a liquid toner before applying your daily moisturizer and makeup. I have noticed that it has brightened up my skin quite a bit. I have been using this daily in the mornings and I am happy to have it as part of my skin care routine. 

The Sier-Oil retails for $32 HERE (currently out of stock)
The Truffle Serum retails for $36 HERE
