Make P:rem’s Hydrate Me. Micro Tension Cream features triple hyaluronic acid, designed to penetrate different layers of the skin for deep, long lasting hydration. With ingredients like raspberry extract this cream will also work to strengthen the skin barrier and improve elasticity.

Key Ingredients:

- Raspberry Extract antioxidant, hydrating and restores elasticity

- Thyme Extract helps to revitalize and supply moisture to the skin

- Triple Hyaluronic Acid for deep hydration/moisture and strengthens skin barrier

This has a watery, pudding-like texture that is bouncy to the touch. It has a milky white color. The cream looks rich but it actually feels lightweight once on the skin. It absorbs easily into my skin and I like that it doesn’t leave a sticky residue behind. This certainly does what it’s says in terms of hydrating the skin deeply. It worked great on my dry cheeks by restoring the loss of moisture. It leaves my skin feeling soft, more smooth and visibly more supple after each use.

Now for the bad. After 4 days of consistent use my combination skin began to become quite oily, even in my dry areas, and by day 6 I had two painful pimples along the side of my nose. I don’t have what I would necessarily call acne prone skin, I do occasionally get one here or there, but never this large or painful. This cream does contain quite a few essential oils, so there is a chance that is what caused this reaction. The scent is also not the best nor my favorite but it doesn’t linger. If you have oily skin I would avoid this at all costs. I think it’s worth a try if you have dry, dehydrated, aging skin that is not sensitive.

PROS:

✅ Cruelty Free

✅ Lightweight and Absorbs well

✅ Doesn’t leave skin feeling sticky

✅ Hydrated/Moisturized skin well

✅ Leaves skin feeling soft & smooth

✅ Skin visibly appeared more supple

CONS:

❌ After 6 days I broke out in my t-zone

❌ Made skin look and feel oily

❌ Scent is not the best

This ampoule came at just the right time. Big thanks to @go.picky, @pickyrewards and @makeprem_global for sending it my way to try. My skin tends to get stressed when I’m out in the southern heat on a daily basis and with two kids I am outside quite a bit. This arrived on the day I had spent more than 4 hours on the sidelines of a track while my daughter cheered and my face was red and dehydrated. I immediately washed my face and began to pat this into my skin.

KEY TAKE AWAYS:

- Water like texture but is slightly thicker in consistency

- No scent

- My skin drank it up.

- It rapidly began to cool my skin and give my skin the relief it was begging for.

- It soothed my redness within 5 minutes

- Hydrated my skin immediately leaving it feeling refreshed.

This is now a staple in my nighttime routine. One of my favorite ways to use this ampoule is doing the 7 Skin Method while I’m watching a show. My skin is more plump, hydrated, and has a subtle glow to it.

I would recommend this product to those who has sensitive skin, has dry skin and needs additional moisture, or who needs a product to calm their irritated and stressed skin.

PROS:

- Gentle

- Absorbs Quickly

- Moisturizing and hydrates skin

- Calmed and soothed my stressed skin

- Helped reduce redness in cheeks

- No scent

CONS:

- While this did immediately hydrated my skin by mid day or mid night I would have to go back and add my moisturizer on top

- Prefer a pump more than a dropper

Make P:rem’s Safe Me. Relief Watery Cream is a moisturizer that brings instant moisture to dehydrated skin and soothes irritated skin with a nice cooling affect. This gel like cream penetrates your skin quickly and restores the skin’s oil moisture balance with its sub-acidic formula. Formulated with:

- 74% Opuntia Ficus-Indica Root is a extract from the stem of a cactus from Jeju Island helps moisturize and quench dry skin. It also has great capacity of keeping its moisture in itself

- Hyaluronic Acid

- Simmondsia Chinenis Seed

- Panthenol

will not only help moisturize you skin but will help reduce redness and calm blemishes.

The cooling effect hits you as soon as it’s on your skin. It feels absolutely amazing going on. There is no scent, which I love, and does not leave a stickiness behind. It did take a bit to absorb into my skin but the cooling felt so good I did not mind. It moisturizes pretty well, more so when used with the P:rem Watery Ampoule (wow! What a power couple!), but I did have to go back and use a heavier moisturizer when I used this alone. This would be a great lightweight moisturizer for summer, especially for those of us who live in places that get hot, on days you’ve been out in the sun or heat. I also love that it is silicone free so I don’t have to worry about it clogging my pores. I would buy this again during the summer months.

Tip: I put in the fridge and it’s even better going on. I used it last night with my roller and is felt amazing!

TEXTURE: Gel Like Cream and Lightweight

SCENT: None

PROS:

- Free from alcohol, allergens, fragrance and parabens

- Free from silicone so it won’t clog pores

- Cruelty free

- Lightweight

- Does not irritate skin

- Cooling and refreshing

- Not sticky after absorbing

- Reduced redness in cheeks

- Helps relieve stressed skin

CONS:

- Took a bit to absorb

Make P:rem Safe Me. Relief Moisture pH5.5 Cleansing Foam is apart of the popular ‘Safe Me’ line that takes care of those with sensitive skin. This cleansing foam is a low-irritant and mildly acidic foam that deeply cleanses while moisturizing the skin. With a pH level of 5.5 it closely matches the natural pH level of the skin as to not cause irritation, dryness, or strip away oils. Formulated with:

- Marrubium Vulgare Extract helps to protect the skin

- Raspberry Extract works to strengthen skin barrier & moisturize

- Baobab Tree Fruit Extract improves moisture retention

- Rosemary Hip Oil helps to calm & refresh the skin

My skin barrier had been compromised by another popular brands product when this arrived in the mail. I swear it’s like Make P:rem knows when I’ve screwed up my skin because this is the second time a package has come when my skin was irritated. So thank you Make P:rem and Picky for sending this!

The texture is soft & creamy, with a thick consistency. It does have a slight natural scent but it’s not overpowering. A pea size amount is more than enough. It glides across my skin smoothly & the foam feels soft on skin. Rinses well & doesn’t leave behind a residue. I absolutely love this cleanser. It doesn’t irritate my skin, doesn’t leave it feeling dry or tight. My face is more supple, feels soft & moisturized after rinsing. As for cons, I have 2. First, It contains citrus oil bergamot, which usually makes me pause, but since you rinse off it’s not a big deal. Second, It didn’t get the heavier makeup all off. I usually double cleanse but wanted to try this without a first cleanse to see how well it worked. The cleanser gets all makeup off when I use tint, but when I’m wearing med/full coverage I had to double cleanse.

I would recommend this to anyone with any skin type but would definitely tell those who have sensitive, dry, or acne prone skin that this is a must try.

PROS:

- Gentle. Doesn’t irritate skin

- Doesn’t dry out my skin

- Effective in cleaning

- Skin feels moisturized after rinsing

- Skin is more supple & soft after use

CONS:

Make P:rem Safe Me. Relief Moisture Essence Toner is another win for those with sensitive or irritated skin. This essence toner instantly calms, soothes & moisturizes skin while providing barrier care and restoring skin balance. Formulated With:

- Dill Extract helps soothe the skin

- Ceramide NP helps to care for & strengthen the skin barrier

- Sodium Hyaluronate deeply moisturizes the skin

The toner has a watery texture that absorbs quickly into my skin. No seriously, my skin drinks this up. I prefer to tap this into my skin since I’m still dealing with a slightly compromised skin barrier & the skin is dry. It does exactly what it says it will and gives you instant hydration. This is an amazing toner to apply for the 7 skin method. Ive done this method twice now just on the cheeks. The second night I didn’t need to go past layer 4 because of how well this hydrates your skin. It packs a punch but feels lightweight on skin. It has helped calm and soothe the little bit of irritation I still have left and has left my skin feeling soft and looking more plump. Only CON I have is that it has some sensitizing EO ingredients that could be irritating to some, like bergamot and sage. It didn’t bother my skin, but I don’t generally have sensitive skin.

I would recommend this to anyone who has dehydrated, dry, or sensitive skin (making sure they patch test first).

PROS:

- Doesn’t irritate skin

- Absorbs Quickly

- Lightweight but packs a punch

- Doesn’t leave behind a greasy feeling

- Soothes & Calms my skin

- Gives me an additional punch of moisture and improves moisture level

- Helps soften skin

- Skin feels and appears more plump

CONS:

Make P:rem Safe Me. Relief Moisture Cream 12 is a lightweight, mild moisturizer that soothes sensitive and irritated skin and delivers hydration up to 48 hours. The cream is hypoallergenic and is made up of only 12 ingredients with 93% being naturally derived. Key Ingredients:

- Squalane helps to prevent water loss & moisturize skin

- Raspberry Fruit Extract has anti-inflammatory properties & works to strengthen skin barrier

- Glycerin is a humectant & allows the skin to retain moisture, increase hydration, & relieve dryness

The moisturizer is creamy and soft in texture and it absorbs fairly quick into my skin. Similar to the toner, it’s lightweight, but it packs a punch of hydration for my combination skin without feeling heavy. I love how it doesn’t leave behind a stickiness or make my skin appear oily. This was a bit to heavy for me to wear during the day, especially since I live in the south and it’s still hot. But this is amazing

at bedtime as it maintains hydration throughout night. I wake to well moisturized skin that is more supple and soft.

I do have a few Cons. Just like the Essence toner, this has some sensitizing EOs that can be irritating to some. That said, Make P:rem has ensured there is no potential risk since it’s in low levels. While it moisturized my combination skin really well this may not be enough for those who have dry skin in the winter months. And last, it comes in a jar. I would love it even more if it was a tube or pump. I would recommend this to anyone who has dehydrated, dry, combination, or sensitive skin.

PROS:

- Doesn’t irritate skin

- Absorbs fairly quickly

- Leaves skin feeling moisturized & maintains hydration throughout night

- Doesn’t leave skin feeling sticky or oily

- Skin is more smooth and soft

- Got rid of dry spots on my cheeks

CONS:

- Some sensitizing EO ingredients that could be irritating to some

- Comes in a jar
