This was my first 15% vitamin C serum. Tingled when I first tried it and left my face a bit red. Got used to it after a week. 2 weeks in I can really see the difference. My skin is much smoother and brightet.

Strawberry & Vitamin C Serum - 15% Pure L-Ascorbic Acid for Brighter Skin

I have very dry, sensitive, eczema prone skin. I was given this product as a present and was surprised to find when I first put it on it tingled. I rinsed it off and used my usual gentle moisturiser as I've been here before and the day after I look like I've had an accident with a sunlamp. Astonishingly the following day my skin looked healthy, soft and clear. So I checked with the manufacturer who gave me some tips. I've continued to use it and can genuinely say my skin looks softer and healthier and a couple of patches of stubborn dryness have improved. I. Love. It.

I’ve used this serum for a few weeks now, I can already notice a difference in my skin & I only see it getting better. My skin feels softer, looks clearer and a couple of small red patches have cleared. It’s gentle & light on your skin, quick and easy to use, plus smells lovely. As someone who’s never used anything like this before, I now couldn’t be without it in my routine. Highly recommended.

I use this every morning and evening. Splash my face, then rub in the cleanser (which is great for removing makeup up as well), before rinsing off with warm water and a cloth. My skin feels so soft and I have noticed I my complexion is brighter, as someone who’s never used products before, now I wouldn’t be without it. Highly recommended.

I have been using this product for a couple of weeks. It’s light, fresh and natural. I’m really pleased with the results, my skin feels brighter after the long winter months. I’m not surprised it’s sold out already!

It’s been a while since my last purchase of this mask. Delighted I purchased again as it leaves my skin feeling refreshed and silky. Definitely had a brightening effect too. Packed with good ingredients just what I want now I have reached 60!

My doctor had recommended me this mask as I am currently doing micro needling sessions and this mask makes my skin so soft and smooth, and leaves it glowing!!!

I highly recommend this to anyone who wants to have a natural glowy look, and are sensitive to vitamin C as it’s only 10% and is perfect for my sensitive skin (which usually doesn’t suit any vitamin C products)

This also arrived faster than my amazon packages, and came with a free sample of a strawberry and vitamin C serum which has such a good formula and would hopefully buy some more off when they release it!☺️☺️☺️

This is not the most elegant formula I've ever came across, but my god does this stuff work! Soft and glowy skin guaranteed. I will be most definitely coming back for this gem as it is of now a staple in my skincare routine.

Frankincense is my favourite fragrance, excellent!!

Love this mask, my face feels so smooth afterwards and has a wonderful glow. Would recommend :)!

Love this product, left my skin feeling glowy and super clean!

I love this face mask, I have only used it twice and it makes my skin feel very soft and glowy. I will continue to purchase.

Brown Rice Milk & Honey in-shower moisturiser - for oily skin

UXB kindly sent me their rice milk & honey moisturiser to try out for free as I happened to buy my favourite cleanser (rice milk & honey) right at the time they launched the new moisturiser. Ive been waiting a few weeks to leave a review to see how it is for my skin.

This is going to be a very thorough review, so here is a quick summary. Overall, I highly recommend this moisturiser. It's entirely made with sensitive and oily skin in mind, it feels lovely and it doesn't make me break out (very important factor for sensitive and oily skin!!). Now for the long review :)

So first of all, it's a beautiful sorbet-like texture. When you first put it on, it feels a bit like a film, a little greasy, but this goes away within 30 seconds to a minute of applying it. Afterwards, it feels beautifully moisturising and completely grease free. I have super oily skin and have recently given up on my night time routine because I am lazy and can't be bothered anymore, lol, so its extra important that my daily moisturiser doesnt make me feel clogged up. It feels similar to the cleanser itself - extremely hydrating, plumping and cleansing without feeling greasy or heavy!

Second of all, it smells like moisturiser, a bit like suncream. This might be a negative for a lot of people, but for me this shows UXB is actually making their products for sensitive skin with sensitive skin in mind. A lot of companies do not do this and throw 1001 ingredients and a variety of 7 scents into their sensitive products for some reason. So even though a nice scent is important to some people, if you have sensitive skin like me you know that unfragranced is the best!

Finally, I wouldn't say it clears or clogs my skin. Because I dropped my night time routine, my skin hasnt been amazing. However, I went through a period recently of using expensive branded products such as Clinique, Espa and Elemis, and my skin had never been so bad and painful. I usually have fairly clear skin with a couple of spots dotted around my face at any given time, so this was a really distressing time for my confidence. I decided it was stupid to be paying for these expensive well-known brands that dont even have their customer's needs in mind, and also I was dumb for shopping around for skincare when I knew what worked for me, thus I came back to UXB. So, my skin is back to its normal state! No inflammation, no oiliness, no painful face. I am ok with having a couple of spots as it's natural and UXB's cleanser and moisturiser (and sulphuric acid face masks!) have reminded me that I shouldn't be aspiring for an airbrushed, android-esque look to my face, just what makes me feel confident, clean and happy, and doesn't break me out.

Thirdly, the packaging is very cute and sleek! One issue is that there is no seal on the moisturiser, and the moisturiser is very full (they aren't stingy with their products) which meant when I opened it it leaked everywhere to my surprise. I do find plastic seals wasteful and fiddly more than anything, so I don't mind this personally but maybe a point for improvement or a warning for other customers!

Finally, even though I got it for free as a lovely gift, the price is really fair and even too good to be true in my opinion! For a moisturiser of this quality I'd be expecting to pay between £32-40. And no one can fault the customer service! UXB is so so wonderful. I am about to convert my mother to UXB for her birthday in November... she spends far too much on her Elemis products.
