Rio Rosa Mosqueta Skincare Review


A month or so ago, Rio Rosa Mosqueta asked me if I'd like to try some of the products from their range. I had previously reviewed their rosehip oil here and loved it so of course I jumped at the chance!

Rio Rosa Mosqueta have recently upped their packaging game and I have to say I'm a massive fan of it. The packaging looks clean but still has something about it thanks to the swirly, almost tribal like pattern that adorns the products.

What attracts me most to Rio Rosa Mosqueta products is the fact that they contain 'NO NASTIES' - absolutely no horrible chemicals, only 100% natural ingredients, vegan friendly and suitable for every type of skin!



Ok so here's the thing, I am rubbish at looking after my skin...there, I said it! I can't be doing with faffing around with a 605938 step skincare routine and my bathroom is far too cold for that. I need something quick and efficient that won't make my skin red, blotchy and sore. I once tried a Montagne Jeunesse face mask when I was about 14 that turned my skin bright red. I cried for ages and I haven't been able to put one on since. I shudder thinking about them! 

I dampened my skin and applied a small amount of the Rio Rosa Mosqueta Cream Cleanser to my face and gently massaged it in. I really like the scent of the product, it's a very light, barely there rose scent which is perfect for skincare. I gently removed the cleanser with a warm, damp face cloth but you could also use cotton pads to take it off. I instantly noticed a difference in my skin! It felt seriously smooth to the point where I couldn't stop stroking my face. I even made my boyfriend stroke it - the joys of living with a beauty blogger! Haha. I also noticed there was absolutely no red patches on my face either which is a big plus for me as I find a lot of products do irritate my skin.




At 25 years old, it's probably time I start thinking about anti-ageing products so the Rio Rosa Mosqueta Organic Day & Night Cream was something that really caught my attention.  

The cream applies like an absolute dream! It feels like butter in your hands and feels a lot more expensive than it's reasonable £14.99 price tag. I apply this straight after cleansing my face with the Cream Cleanser and the two combined are a total godsend! I only apply it a night as I find it a bit too heavy in the day and I feel as though my skin doesn't benefit from a moisturiser throughout the day. The Organic Day & Night Cream sinks into your skin and doesn't leave you with a greasy film over your face that your hair gets stuck too. I'm repeatedly shocked when I wake up in the morning as my face is super soft and glowy. I always expect anti-ageing products to leave my skin feeling tight but this wasn't the case at all with this cream.  

I know that you may think I'm bias as these products were sent to me for review purposes but my review has been one hundred percent truthful.  I'd repurchase both of these products in a heartbeat and I'd go as far to say, they're in my top 5 skincare products I've ever tried.

You can see the whole range of Rio Rosa Mosqueta products here and also follow them on twitter here.  Have you tried anything from the range before?
