Review: Valentia Pure Glow Brightening Moisturizer

Valentia Pure Glow Brightening Moisturizer
Finding a moisturizer that actually works can be a harder task than one might think. I can’t tell you how many moisturizers I have bought over the years to only be left disappointed. Well that is, up until I discovered skincare brand, Valentia.

Named after the Roman Goddess of Healing, Valentia follows in her path of using natural and organic ingredients to help protect and repair skin. With that being said, the Valentia Pure Glow Brightening Moisturizer has become my new favorite skincare product.

The moisturizer is described as a lightweight fast absorbing cream that illuminates skin while providing all-day hydration. What I have learned about effective moisturizers through all of my beauty research is that the more quickly it absorbs into skin, the more benefits it can provide. Aside from quickly absorbing into the skin, this moisturizer also as a number of other benefits that are key to achieving great skin. This moisturizer will:

  • Lighten dark spots
  • Restore skin radiance
  • Even skin tone
  • Diminish fine lines
  • Provide all-day hydration

Some of the natural and organic key ingredients of this moisturizer include ginseng, safflower oil, and shea butter. Because the brand is focused on only including natural ingredients, the results of their products are extremely positive and noticeable even after a few weeks of using.

I have now been using the Valentia Pure Glow Brightening Moisturizer for 2 weeks, and have already noticed a huge difference in my skin. Not only is my skin more hydrated and less dry when I wake up in the morning, but it also seems to appear more even. To me, this is super important because that means I don’t have to apply as much foundation and can wear less makeup.

Overall, I am extremely impressed with this moisturizer and brand as a whole. I definitely am going to be trying some of their other skincare products and will be reviewing them here on my blog.
