First Impressions

 

My typical white box arrives beautifully packaged.

 

Included were helpful cards and a booklet with loads of details about the products this month from Polish brand Oio Lab. How cute is this packaging?

The Products

Oio Lab Aquasphere Multi-Dimensional Hydrating Facial Serum, 30 mL - Retail Value $85

 

Hydration serums are such a nice treat during the summer. Even though I lean towards dryness, sometimes it's so humid out there during the day that even a light cream moisturizer can feel like a lot! A serum like this is a nice alternative. It has 5 different weights of moisture bomb hyaluronic acid, but still manages to absorb in a snap and feel super light. I have found it to be an awesome step during the day after a cleanse and before my SPF. It also contains rose water and exfoliating lactic acid. There is a very, very light floral scent that is pleasant and doesn't last long, and the jelly texture makes this super enjoyable and cooling to apply.

Oio Lab The Forest Retreat Calming Facial Treatment, 30 mL - Retail Value $80

 

Next up is an adaptogenic facial emulsion. This is a really fancy way of saying this cream is made with plants that help your body reduce and recover from stress. Adaptogenic plants have become super popular recently (think mushroom teas and fancy food powders) but they have been used for a really long time as natural remedies to all the icky stuff we put ourselves through just by existing on this planet. The big players here are listed as:

Ashwagandha, Gotu Kola, Indigo, Maitake, Reishi, Shiitake

From that list, you can easily surmise that this product is a clever marriage of cutting-edge skincare science with traditional medicinal remedies from across many different cultures and continents. In addition to claiming stressed skin, this formula has also been shown to brighten over time, which is great for anyone out there with pesky age or sunspots. Aside from the plant extracts listed above, I also noticed vitamin E and more lactic acid in the ingredient list. I would describe the texture as a very light gel-cream and the scent is hard to explain, but my brain just sees green when I smell it. The texture is a little heavier than the first item we explored this month, but it is still on the light side and appropriate for daytime or nighttime use.

Verdict

I always enjoy exploring new brands in my Beauty Heroes subscription. And this month, Oio Labs was a wonderful experience. Both of the formulas were impressive in terms of ingredients as well as texture and smell, and to add even more magic, the packaging was delightful. Value-wise, we landed at $165, which is a nice value for a $$58.95 box.

I love natural/vegan beauty products, Korean skincare, unique jewelry, and weird candies from far away places. When I am not waiting for my next exciting box you can find me painting or taking photographs of interesting people. I never leave home without pug hair somewhere on my shirt and a bold lipstick on my smile.
