The last few years as I’m approaching 40 I’ve been really interested in taking care of my skin. As a natural redhead, I have very fair skin but have always been an outdoorsy person growing up on a farm. So my skin has had all winds and weathers attacking it over the decades! It’s a combined skin type that I have so dry in winter and oily in summer. The T-Zone can get oily especially around my nose! Therefore I love to try out moisturisers to find the perfect one for me. Skinstation kindly sent me these luxury skincare products, the Dr Dennis Gross Hyaluronic Marine Oil-Free Moisture Cushion and the iS Clinical Lip Polish to try out.
Dr Dennis Gross Hyaluronic Marine Oil-Free Moisture Cushion – 50ML
Product Description
Delivered in a unique water-break gel cream, this enriched formula features Japanese marine algae and hyaluronic acid chronospheres to lock in moisture and keep skin looking dewy, supple, and plump all day.
This marine-enriched moisture cushion is now infused with unique Japanese marine algae harvested from the waters of Okinawa. Commonly referred to as “sea grapes” or “green caviar”, this Japanese algae is fortified with essential amino acids and B vitamins to enhance skin’s elasticity and moisture content. As you massage the experiential formula into skin, feel the texture break into a fresh water-like gel. Get balanced, lightweight hydration to smooth fine lines and experience a dewy, healthy complexion without looking greasy. Ideal for all skin types.

What I Thought
The cream is very soft like a whippy texture and completely non-greasy. It’s easy to moisturise into the skin leaving no residue. I love that’s it’s a gentle formula and strong on hydration. Which is completely needed with the harsh coastal Autumn/Winter weather here in Cornwall. Use on clean dry skin in the morning/evening, making my skin feel so much younger! It does suggest on the product website to use as a layer over a serum of your choice which is what I do. It gives the best long-lasting results for wonderful skin. It’s perfect not only for combination skin types but for other skin types as well. This luxury skincare is vegan and cruelty free. You can also try Nature Republic if you look for natural products for your skin care.

What I Thought
I’ve always suffered with dry cracked lips getting worse as the colder weather sets in. I’ve tried many lip balms over the years. Some make my lips worse and dry them out even more, and some only work if you are constantly applying it. I was eager to out out the iS Clinical Lip Polish to see if this can help my lips.
It’s a great lip polish. I’ve used it a couple of times now as it’s recommended to use up to three times a week. All you have to do is gently massage a small amount with your fingertip in a circular motion then rinse or remove with a damp cloth after. It feels as if you have removed all the dead skin after use. Your lips feel fresh and new!
The benefits of using the iS Clinical Lip Polish are:
- It gently exfoliates the lips to reveal a softer, smoother texture.
- Conditions, hydrates and softens.
- Provides antioxidant protection.
- Paraben-free.
