Review:
Enzymion is a light moisturiser intended for oily skin, formulated with fruit extracts. Fresh lemon juice is the main ingredient and is intended to mattify skin, helping to keep natural oils away. Aloe vera gel is second on the list of ingredients and acts to calm spotty skin while papaya juice is meant to ‘brighten’ skin. In lesser quantities, emollients are also included to keep your skin hydrated; Cocoa butter comes third on the list of ingredients, followed by glycerine and essential oils which all act to lightly moisturise.
The first thing I noticed about this cream is the lovely strong lemony fragrance which is long lasting; I can still smell it a few hours after application. It is a light moisturiser, but not as light as some others I’ve used so I think it would suit both oily and ‘normal’ skin. The claim that it prevents oil production however isn’t true for me; my skin gradually becomes just as oily as ever using this cream so that disappointed me a little.
Overall, this product is a little bit on the expensive side compared with it’s cruel-counterparts but I think it’s worth it if you’re looking for ethical cosmetics as this one ticks every box.
7/10
