Adovia Moisturizing Day Cream Review

Posted on by Adventures in Polishland

Happy Wednesday! A few months ago I tried my first Adovia product (see that review HERE), so I was excited when I got the opportunity to review the brand’s daily moisturizer! I just ran out of the moisturizer that I’d been using for years (literally), so I couldn’t wait to treat my skin to something new. Adovia’s products are dermatologist tested and suited for all skin types. I’ve been using this moisturizer for about a month now, so it’s time to share my opinion with you!

Adovia Daily Moisturizing Cream ReviewAdovia’s Moisturizing Day Cream contains Dead Sea Minerals, Aloe Vera, and Chamomile designed to keep a natural moisture balance and protect the skin at the same time. This cream is supposed to leave your skin hydrated, but not greasy. Adovia says the result is a natural glow that gives you that radiant look. Additionally, this Day Cream is hypoallergenic and thus does not have any fragrance to it, which I always appreciate.

I was a bit hesitant at first, because this cream is definitely quite heavy and thick in texture. I was afraid this would feel greasy on my face, and that I would look shiny all day. Surprisingly, despite the thick feel, this cream applies really well. It does feel heavy when first applied, but my skin drinks it up rather quickly and I didn’t notice any added appearance of oil throughout the day. The directions for this product say it can double as a makeup primer, so I used it as a base and found it works great for that use as well! The only drawback with the product is a very minor one, and that is the packaging. I don’t like jars because it feels gross to stick my fingers in to dig out the product. It’s not a big deal, but I definitely prefer pumps!

All in all, I’m so glad I got the chance to try the Moisturizing Day Cream from Adovia. It does retail for $46.00, but as I type this it’s on sale for $25.95 on Amazon HERE. For 1.7oz of product, I think that is a great value. It takes me a very long time to use up skincare products! If you’re looking for a new day cream that won’t irritate your skin, I highly recommend this one!

Adovia Natural Dead Sea Mud Soap Review

Posted on by Adventures in Polishland

Disclosure: I got this product as part of an advertorial.

Happy Friday! One of my favorite types of products to try out is bar soap. In fact, you may have seen me feature some awesome bar soaps in my monthly favorites posts! I just love testing out new brands and scents, so when I got the opportunity to review the Natural Dead Sea Mud Soap from Adovia, I couldn’t wait to give it a try! Let me tell you more about this soap, and share my experience with you.

Adovia Natural Dead Sea Mud SoapThe Adovia Natural Dead Sea Mud Soap is a soap enriched with century old Dead Sea mud that infuses your skin with minerals to keep it hydrated while it cleanses at the same time. It can be used on your body and face, but should not be used to wash your eyes. I wanted to try this soap because it is advertised to be great for acne, and it’s all natural. In April, I got a nasty breakout along my jawline and on my upper back (sorry if this is a bit personal, but hey, we’re all friends here!) I was really hoping this Adovia soap would help clear up my breakout!

Adovia Natural Dead Sea Mud SoapWhen I first got the soap, I loved the fresh and clean scent! It was strong during my first use, but died down significantly after that. I was so disappointed! However, if you don’t like strong smelling soaps, that might be a plus for you. I’ve used this bar of soap all up in the shower over a course of three weeks. I was really impressed that the soap lasted that long, as I usually use up a bar of soap in 1-2 weeks. I am happy to report that my back is clear of all the acne I had. My jawline, on the other hand, is still not 100% clear. I did see a small improvement, but my acne is definitely still there. That may be due to me using a lot of products, such as moisturizers, sunscreen, or makeup on my face, but I still would have liked that acne to disappear as well.

All in all, I did like the Adovia Natural Dead Sea Mud Soap. I like using an all natural product, and I’m glad it cleared up the acne on my back. I do wish that the clean scent was stronger, and lasted for the entire use of the bar of soap. If you are looking for a gentle soap that will help with your acne, I do recommend this, but know that it is a little bit of a splurge at $16.00 retail. This is a good product to keep on hand for when you suffer an acne breakout, but maybe not for every day use. You can purchase the Advoia soap on Amazon HERE. Let me know if you’ve ever tried a specialty soap for acne in the comments!
