Dr.Organic Organic Royal Jelly Night Cream | Review

It is definitely getting cold here in Malta. Mind you I do love winter quite a lot. With the change in temperature comes a change in the skin care I use. I have quite oily skin on my face but in winter it tends to become somewhat drier.

A couple of weeks back I was invited to an event organised by Dr.Organic . This first review is that of the dr.organic Organic Royal Jelly Night Cream.

Royal Jelly is a substance which is used to feed the Queen Bee. Normal working bees are only fed this during the first few days of their larvae stage. The Queen bee is continued to be fed this Royal jelly. It has been used since ancient times as an anti aging product. 

Royal jelly has moisturizing, nourishing, rejuvenating, soothing and healing properties due to its rich and precious composition consisting of  variety of nutrients, plants hormones, minerals  and vitamins essential to the body. Royal Jelly contains the essential amino acids which are the building blocks of collagen which supports the skin tissue and is very important in maintaining the skin's firmness.

 It helps with tightening fine lines and reducing the appearance of wrinkles. Royal jelly also assists in keeping the skin hydrated  and hence the skin is soft, supple and smooth.

I can go on and on about the benefits of Royal Jelly but I am just going to add some info about the product itself. 

It is an overnight repairing and rescue cream with a rich, luxurious texture containing a rich blend of Organic Royal Jelly, Aloe Vera, Jojoba Oil, Calendula, Macademia Oil, Papaya Oil, Japanese Fruit Wax, Irish Moss, Shea Butter, Honey, Red Clover, Heather, Vitamin C plus Cedarwood, Lemon, Geranium, Patchouli, Petitgrain and Sandalwood Essential Oils. The skin is nourished and hence it is more radiant, firm and has a smooth appearance. Overnight, skin cell renewal is stimulated and this helps to minimize the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.

This cream may be my next favourite thing. I am quite picky when it comes to night creams as a lot tend to be quite thick and oily and do not really do anything. I feel my skin supple and more radiant the morning after. It also feels more hydrated and nourished. I feel that it's jelly/cream consistency makes this product ideal for all the skin types. It doesn't feel oily on the skin although it takes a while to be absorbed through the skin.

What is more good about this product is that is readily available in various stores around Malta (check this link here to check the nearest store) and it doesn't really break the bank like some expensive night creams. It costs 9.49 euros. 

Hope you found this review helpful!

A must buy for winter!

Dr. Organic Malta Event

At last! I am writing a blog post. I had a quite stressful week at work that now I have lots of things to write about in my blog and videos to film and upload because I haven't had any time!

So, earlier this week I was invited, along with my fellow bloggers, to an event organised by Dr. Organic. I have been quite into simple organic skin care and hair care products lately which lets just face it, is always a good thing to try.

Below is a brief introduction on the brand itself:

In Dr. Organic products one finds organically grown ingredients. The products contain the finest natural and organic raw material where possible. These products are thoroughly tests to ensure that they conform to the strict quality guidelines. Bioactive extracts are used to ensure each product is truly functional by nature. Dr. Organic products contain no harsh chemicals such as parabens, SLS (Sodium lauryl sulphate), perfumes or artificial fragrances.The products are not tested on animals and most of the products are non animal derived, with the exception of honey, beeswax, propolis and royal jelly. No minerals are included in the ingredients and hence petro-chemicals such as paraffin and petroleum are avoided. Instead plant based oils and extracts are used.  No genetically modified or genetically engineered organisms are used and where necessary only high grade preservative are used.

The event itself was quite an intimate one and it took place at the lovely Villa Bologna in Attard. The lovely Teri gave us an overview on the ranges which Dr. Organic carry. We also got the opportunity to try out several products. And I can also say that I have set eyes on some products already! Very generously, at the end of the event we were given the opportunity to take home with us 3 products to try out for ourselves.

Here is what I took home with me:

Lierac Coherence L. IR Day and Night Lifting Cream Review

The reason why I have been absent for quite a while is pretty simple. I was just enjoying summer and I know that if I am committed to something I should stick to it. However, I work on a shift basis and some times on my off days all I want to do is to go out and have fun. So, sorry for the delays :) Now, on to the review.


I don't have any wrinkles so far! Thank God. But there again I am still 23 so I am not expecting to have any yet. But I like to take care of my skin not excessively but basic skincare regimes and then using one or two 'special' creams. I don't go to do facials that often and in my life I have only done 1 facial which felt quite good actually. But I prefer taking care of my own skin myself.

Months back I attended a Lierac event and in this event we were given some goodies to try out. One of them was this Coherence L.IR Day and Night Lifting Cream. It claims to redefine the oval shape of th face, firms the skin and diminishes the appearance of wrinkles. If I'm not picky on anything I am very picky on my night creams. Let's just say that this is one of my favourite ones.

First of all, it has this subtle fragrance which I cannot get over with and I cannot figure out what it is. But secondly, this night cream doesn't leave my skin greasy in the morning. I find that it is quickly absorbed in the skin. After using it my skin feels very mositurised and sort of plumped as well. Now as I said I cannot say that it really diminished my wrinkles as I don't have any. However, my skin felt really comfortable with it and it felt smooth and not tight. I have also used it in the morning and it works as fine. 

Lierac suggests using it in the following manner:

"Lightly apply to the forehead, cheeks and chin from the middle of the face working towards the exterior, then descend the median line until your neck, not forgetting above and below the lips. Lastly, press lightly with flat hands, separate your fingers stretching them gently towards the temples towards the hairline."

My final thoughts? I would give the cream a go if you are looking into trying anti aging cream! Moreover it is never too late to start taking care of your skin. Check the link Lierac Malta Website to know where you can get the products from in Malta. 

Hope that Review helped!
