Moogoo Full Cream Moisturiser Review




Note: I've noticed on the Moogoo website that the packaging has changed, it is now a pump bottle (better in my opinion) and the price has dropped to $18.50 and it's now 270g in size, all these changes are improvements but the pictures and review is on the one I own which is the older packaging. There has been an ingredient changed instead of the Apple Cider Vinegar, it has now been replaced with Pyrus Communis (Pear) Extract, all other ingredients are the same. 

Ok now on with my review of the moisturiser :)



My Thoughts & Experience with the product

This is one of my favourite moisturisers ever for my face and body. I have used it for about a year and a half and even though at first I thought it was a bit too pricey I have realised it does last a good while and it does spread nicely and is very much worth it.  I have very dry and flakey skin and this is one of the only moisturisers that if I use it everyday it will help the dry skin on my face. I use it for night and  day and I like it for both. Keeps the skin moisturised for a good amount of time. It is easy to apply too much (to the face) so be careful not to OD on it and when applying make-up over it let the moisturiser sink in the skin really, really well before hand. I really do like it I think it is great for all dry skin types, it doesn't have that yuck feeling of normal heavy chemical filled moisturisers that greasy Vaseline feeling. It's good for the skin and can be used on face, body and hands I think it's a smart buy. There isn't much more to say other than it is a great product and I highly doubt anyone one would regret purchasing it!



Moogoo Full Cream Natural Moisturiser (Old Packaging)


Price: I think I bought it for $22 (ish)

Amount: 250g



What I like to use it for: Face and body moisturiser

My Skin Type Recommendation: Dry and sensitive skins, too heavy for oily skin

Consistency: Nice creamy and smooth texture

Smell: Really nice, kind of milky and sweet, a bit hard to explain but it is a nice, NON offensive smell.




My tips: As well as this moisturiser, I like to use oils too for extra moisture e.g. for my face I will use rose hip oil and for my skin I will use coconut oil underneath or mixed with the moisturiser to 1: be even more moisturising and 2: not have to use as much of the moisturiser.



Ingredient list for the Moogoo Full Cream Moisturiser


Problems/ Issues/ Negative Comments: Packaging I bought the jar (because that was all that was available) but I think they have changed it now to a pump which is better (more hygienic). On the face, at times it can, if you use too much it can have a bit of an oily feeling, when I say that it might scare people but I think it's just because at times my skin gets so dry I apply too much to try and combat that, but it is a great moisturiser and a tissue to soak up extra oils can be used to solve this issue anyway.

Irritations? No, Never had any kind of rash or discomfort when using the moisturiser.

Bottom Line: If you have dry, sensitive skin this will be a great choice 100% for your body and good for a night time moisturiser. Especially if you are a constant sufferer of dry/ flakey skin this will definitely help. Anyone who has issues with overpowering fragrance (like myself) I think this is a good choice. Good ingredients and good results I think it is worth the money and is a gem to have apart of any skincare routine.

  1. With the cold weather my skin has gone dry and flaky too - bought this cream too to try and does it really help with the dryness/flakiness, do you have to apply a 2nd layer on top and do you apply any rosehip beforehand to help?

  2. This thing is awesome! My skin felt so dry and flaky last week. I bought this in panic and I'm glad I did. After one overnight use, my skin went back to normal. I use this during the day too. Surprisingly it suits the tropical weather and my combination skin very well. It doesn't "melt" under the hot sun, and works well with my sunscreen.
