Time to talk about Skin Owl. This small indie green beauty brand has a few fabulous skincare items in it’s arsenal. I’ve tried the Eye+ and recently decided to grab the new Beauty Whip and Neck+.
Beauty Whip is a mask that can be used a few ways. Details per Skin Owl:
I am head over heels for this mask. It’s really hydrating without being too heavy or greasy. I never broke out while using it. You can dry towel this off, wash it off or just leave it on overnight. I love the glass bottle with pump it’s perfect. This was the perfect hydrating mask, the oils and cream combination hydrates insanely well without being too much. It leaves no oily residue behind, just super soft skin.
Neck+ sounds like a neck product only, but it’s really perfect as a face and neck serum. Details per Skin Owl:
A symphony of healing herbs, restorative plant and flower compounds, and Ocean Mineral Complex in a super concentrated, bio-available delivery system. Our first ever super-smoothing & contouring neck concentrate made with superstar age-defying ingredients to create a smooth, youthful, and contoured neck and décolleté. Skin looks smooth, supple, and quenched, with dark spots & crease marks visibly reduced. Tight, toned, and radiant skin will be the evidence of this product’s efficacy.
Directions Apply a small amount to entire face, neck and décolleté after showering. Allow to dry. Follow with SkinOwl’s Body Oil. Suitable for all skin types. For external use only. Can be used daily.
Ingredients
Aqua (Deionized Water), Hamamelis Virginiana Water (Witch Hazel), Dimethyl Sulfone (MSM), Aloe Barbadensis Leaf Juice (Organic Aloe), Sea Water Extract (Ocean Mineral Concentrate), Simmondsia Chinensis Seed Oil (Organic Jojoba Oil), Achillea Millefolium Extract (Yarrow), Chondrus Crispus Extract (Irish Moss), Curcuma Longa Rhizome Extract (Organic Turmeric), Spirulina Maxima Extract, Hydroxyethyl Ethylcellulose, Carrageenan, Potassium Sorbate, Sodium Benzoate, Ethylhexylglycerin
Neck+ is a clear liquid gel serum for the neck. It smells faintly like aloe, is weightless in texture and sinks right into the skin. It’s very lightly hydrating, more like a light gel serum. Packed with wonderful things like aloe, witch hazel, MSM (see above), sea water extract, red algae, anti-inflammatory turmeric, spirulina and some jojoba oil for skin protection. It’s a lovely combination.
This comes packaged in a glass bottle with pump. Perfect. You get a huge bottle that lasts forever. I use this on both my neck and face, no reason you can use this as a facial serum as well. Now, does this tighten and brighten my neck area? Not so much. While it’s full of antioxidants and skin loving ingredients it’s not the best at tightening to that visible of a degree. To be fair all the neck serums and creams I try claim the same thing, and they always fall short in my opinion too. However, I’m only 39 I don’t have a sagging neck yet. If I had sagging skin on my neck I might be able to see a more profound difference.
I think it’s an amazing antioxidant, anti-inflammatory hydrating gel serum. Perfect for layering in the daytime. I would repurchase. Just not for the reasons listed on the bottle.
