Review: Simple Hydrating Booster

Hydration is always key to happy healthy skin but just lately brands have been using it as their basis for the plethora of new releases that have been hitting the high street. Some brands do it well but some brands fail miserably. Simple is one of those brands that has done it very well, very well indeed.

Their new Water Boost Hydrating Booster is a gem of a product and is the first of it's kind on the high street, with a somewhat budget friendly price tag. A lightweight serum consistency this booster can be used as a pre make up moisturising primer, mixed in with your daily moisturiser to boost hydration or applied to areas where it's most needed. Perfect for those with dry/dehydrated or senstive skin this booster not only gives skin a moisture surge but also holds onto moisture and slowly releases it throughout the day when skin needs it most.

The first thing to notice with this product is that a little goes a very long way, especially if you're adding it into a serum or moisturiser. The second is that the results from this product are instantaneous, even more so if you're skin is very dehydrated. Before you've even finished rubbing this in, skin will feel hydrated, plumper and softer to the touch. And throughout the day skin doesn't change, it still feels hydrated and soft to touch even hours later, make applied over top or without make up at all.

I've tried this on it's own as well as mixed in with my daily serum. Whilst it's nice on it's own, leaving skin feeling like it's had a massive hydration boost, I do prefer it mixed in with another product. This paired with a rich moisturiser such as the Liz Earle SuperSkin Moisturiser not only lightens the consistency of the moisturiser but also adds a bonus pop of hydration that you're skin will be thankful for. And I love pairing it with the Liz Earle as sometimes that whilst hydrating and nourishing on my skin can sometimes feel too heavy and this just lightens it as well as boosting moisture levels. If you have a holy grail moisturiser but just want an extra boost then this is the product for you. It isn't going to replace any of your exsisting products, it will just give them a little something mre which will is nothing but beneficial for your skin.
