A little while ago I attended a skincare event at Wiink Cosmetics in Linden. It was held in collaboration with Skin Creamery, and I was so excited to learn more about this brand that I had seen on their shelves and had been dying to learn more about their products and what really made them unique.
I have found over the years that my skincare product preference changes as I have aged, and my skin changes due to the different medication, lifestyle changes, operations and where I have been living. I no longer enjoy over-fragranced and chemically-overpowering products, but really prefer a more natural, organic, skin-loving product – and this is exactly what Skin Creamery stood for.
And I know that these products would be a divine stocking stuffer or total gift for that someone special in your life.

My Final Thoughts
This brand evokes a feeling of luxury, and the products enriching your skin. I have been using the Everyday Cream from Skin Creamery since the event, and I absolutely love how it makes my skin feel as well as how it smells the moment I release some of the product onto the palm of my hand.
I love a proudly South African brand. as they are specifically targeted for our skin, with our weather, with our lifestyles. And as always, I feel like we should support local brands first!
