It's time to spill the tea on the new Aquarius Skincare line from Herbivore. I've been putting these products to the test for the past month, and now it's time to share my thoughts. Buckle up and let's dive into the details.

First up, let's talk about the Cleanser. This is Herbivore’s Aquarius BHA + Blue Tansy Clarifying Cleanser. It retails for $34 CAD. gel cleanser specially formulated for acne-prone, oily, and combination skin types. It's packed with ingredients like:

• Willow Bark: a popular form of Salicylic Acid which is anti-inflammatory and exfoliates pores

• Blue Tansy: soothes redness and balances oil production

• Zinc PCA: known to moisturize skin, reduce shine, kill acne causing bacteria

One thing I absolutely adore about this cleanser is its gel texture. It's lightweight, refreshing, and doesn't leave any residue behind. Creamy cleansers? No, thank you. I want something foaming, something that gives me that satisfying cleanse without stripping my skin. And let me tell you, this cleanser delivers exactly that.

I love working up a nice, luxurious lather in my hands and gently pressing it into my skin. It's like giving myself a mini facial every day. Not only has it improved the texture of my skin, but it has also kept blackheads, whiteheads, and breakouts at bay. It's a game-changer, my friends.

Here's a pro tip for you: leave the cleanser on your skin for about two minutes. Treat it like a mini mask, allowing those powerful BHA ingredients to work their magic. Trust me, you'll notice a difference.

Cream

Now, let's move on to the star of the show: the moisturizer. This is Herbivore Botanicals Aquarius Pore Purifying BHA Cream. It retails for $62 CAD. This beauty is formulated with the same incredible ingredients we mentioned earlier. It's a water-based cream that features:

• Caprylic Triglycerides

• Cetearyl Alcohol

• Glycerin, Squalane

• and more moisturizing goodness.

The texture is creamy and luxurious, leaving your skin with a skin-like finish that's neither too matte nor too shiny.

In the summertime, when my skin craves more hydration than moisture, I tend to use this moisturizer on specific areas rather than all over my face. But let me tell you, if you're someone who exfoliates regularly or battles dry patches and dehydrated skin, this Aquarius Cream will be your new best friend.

Oh, and did I mention that both products are vegan and cruelty-free? Herbivore has got our furry friends covered too. Overall, I've thoroughly enjoyed using the Aquarius Skincare line. It's definitely worth giving it a try, especially if you're on the lookout for effective, clean skincare options.

Note: Results may vary depending on individual skin types and concerns. Always patch test before incorporating new skincare products into your routine.
