Full Josie Maran Review

Last week I received my first order from Josie Maran. Firstly I will say the website format and service is great. I received my shipment very quickly with reasonable rates. Living in Canada sometimes shipping costs from other companies can be killer!

I purchased the travel size 100% Argan oil light.

Product description: A featherweight version of the world champion of oils. 100% Argan oil light moisturizes deeply and absorbs quickly, leaving a semi matte finish. First coldpressed to protect its healthy, hydrating properties and ideal for all skin types, especially breakout prone and sensitive skin.

I was for the longest time apprehensive about using a beauty oil on my skin as I am so oily. Much to my pleasure this product works amazingly!

I have used it every night before bed applying 2 to 3 drops on my fingers and then massaging into my face after my usual cleansing routine. Such a smooth lightweight formula, even right after applying I don't feel greasy and when I wake in the morning there isn't as much oil as previously. I would say about 60% reduction right after the first few days of using it. Such a difference in fact that if I don't apply make up I can get away with not having to block oil off my face until nearly dinner time, and my day starts about 6:30 AM. With make up the oil comes back but again not nearly as bad, and it's cut down on the amount of time doing touchups throughout the day. I think come winter this will leave my skin perfect.

Aside from the oil reduction I have a very noticeable glow to the skin, healthier looking and the softness is incredible. The only issue I have remaining is a lot of texture on my four head and cheeks which I am still on the hunt for a good product to help with this, but that is a subject for a different time.

I also purchased the argon lip treatment.

Product description: Apply naturally age-defying argon lip treatment generously throughout the day. Lips are instantly moisturized and lastingly protected; they appear softer, smoother and plumper.

It has a lovely strawberries and cream scent, feels really smooth on, and comes in the world's cutest bottle. I have not noticed any pumping quality, but it does hydrate. I have been using it for overnight is during the day I like something a little heavier so I don't have to reapply as often.

Overall loved both products, highly recommend are going well! Love it! I look forward to purchasing more from this company.
