Hey there, beautiful people! Lets get in to a ELF Holy Hydration Review. If you’re anything like me, you’re constantly on the hunt for skincare products that make you feel like you just stepped out of a spa without bankrupting you. Well, hold onto your moisturiser because I’ve got the scoop on the ELF Holy Hydration range, that’s about to rock your skincare routine!
First off in my ELF Holy Hydration review, let’s talk about that key word, hydration – the holy grail of glowing skin. We’re all striving for that dewy, fresh-faced look, right? But finding the right products that actually deliver can be like searching for a needle in a haystack. There’s so many products out there making big promises. But are any of them actually worth the hype? Cue ELF Holy Hydration!
Now, I’m not one to throw around the word “holy” lightly, but this stuff is seriously good. From their moisturisers to serums, ELF has crafted a line up that’s like a tall glass of water, with an added collagen shot in, for your skin – and who doesn’t love a good hydration boost?
Let’s get down to the nitty-gritty – do these products actually work?
Short answer: hell yes! The ELF Holy Hydration products are packed with hyaluronic acid and peptides which are essential for hydration. They are lightweight, absorb like a dream, and leave your face feeling soft and supple all day long. And can we talk about the price point? You’re getting high-quality skincare without having to take out a second mortgage – win-win!
One of my favourite things…
about ELF Holy Hydration is its commitment to being cruelty-free and vegan. Knowing that I can pamper my skin guilt-free is a big win in my book. Plus, it’s always a bonus when you can support a brand that aligns with your values.
There’s something in the range for all and each product is suitable for all skin types. There’s the ELF Holy Hydration face cream with spf30 for those who want the benefit of 2 products in one. And, there’s also a fragrance free version (without spf) for all my sensitive skin girlies. Plus, my favourite, the Holy Hydration Hydro-Gel Moisturiser, which feels especially light weight and silky for perfect prep before makeup or in the hotter months when a cream feels too heavy.
And don’t even get me started on the new Holy Hydration Lip Mask! Love it!
There range is quite extensive, from cleansers, to mists, through to hand cream. Check out the whole range below.
Last but not least, let’s talk about my personal results.
After incorporating the range in to my skin care routine, for this ELF Holy Hydration review, I noticed a visible difference in the texture and overall appearance of my skin. I’ve tested the spf30 face cream, the fragrance free version, the gel moisturiser and the lip mask. Most noticeable is the way my skin feels. Really soft and malleable, and not greasy at all, all day! Say goodbye to dullness and hello to a radiant complexion!
My Thoughts!
ELF Holy Hydration Review and Product Breakdown
Holy Hydration Fragrance Free Face Cream – love, love, love! This cream is SO good. It feels thick and luxe when applying but then sinks in quickly to leave smooth, soft skin. Not oily or greasy feeling, like some heavy creams can do. I use this at night and most days. The lack of fragrance and spf means it is suitable for all skin types, including sensitive skin. We have Hyaluronic Acid AND Peptides packed in this bottle, which we know are the holy grail of hydration. I imagine this is where they got the name from. I still can’t believe a moisturiser this good costs only £13!
Holy Hydration SPF30 Face Cream – This is a great moisturiser! Full of hydration and not an ounce of greasiness about it, which is impressive considering there is sun cream in there. However, I didn’t feel like it gave me as much hydrating omph as the fragrance free version. That Fragrance Free Face Cream has totally won me over. I’d prefer to use FF one, then my own spf over the top. But if you’re after minimal products, or a speedy routine, this could well be the day cream for you.
Holy Hydration Hydro-Gel Moisturiser – OK this one won my heart. I’m using this on days when it’s particularly hot or I know I’ll be indoors a lot, or travelling on the tube. It feels like a light moisturiser and serum combined. It’s light and silky and makes my skin feel the same. It is such a good base for makeup, especially if you love a more natural, glowing base. Makeup just glides on. This one and the Fragrance Free Face Cream made it into my pro kit. Armed with both of these, I have every skin preference covered.
Holy Hydration Lip Mask – I love a lip mask, and after my favourite one from Milk Makeup got discontinued (it was a sad, sad day) I have been on the search for a new one that lives up to it. I have tried a couple of higher priced lip masks but they have not had the same effect. Then ELF announced the Holy Hydration Lip Mask and I knew I had to have it. It totally blew me away! I wear this to bed every night without fail, and every morning. My lips are consistently soft, supple and comfortable, no doubt because of the Hyaluronic Acid, Squalane and Castor Seed Oil packed in to this little pot of heaven.
So there you have it. My ELF Holy Hydration review.
If you’re looking to quench your skin’s thirst without breaking the bank AND keep your values in tack, ELF Holy Hydration is where it’s at. Trust me, your skin will thank you for it. Here’s to happy, hydrated skin!
