Froya Organics is a sister brand to Norse Organics, which shares the same commitment to using Norwegian botanicals for effective and clean skincare solutions.

The brand embodies the essence of Scandinavian traditions by utilizing Arctic plants that have evolved to survive harsh winters, making them uniquely potent for skincare. Frรธya Organics focuses on creating 100% natural, organic, clean, and powerful products that address womenโ€™s common skin concerns like acne, redness, wrinkles, and dark circles while celebrating female resilience and natural beauty. Their products deliver quick results and can be used as part of your daily routine. In fact, over 80,000 women have already tried and loved Froya Organics, with thousands of positive reviews.

Letโ€™s take a closer look at their Complete System for Mature Womenโ€™s Skin:

 

Froya Organics Ultra cleanse revive face scrub review

 

Ultra Cleanse & Revive Face Scrub – A gentle yet effective exfoliator designed to remove impurities and dead skin cells while promoting skin renewal. Formulated with rice flour, rose flour, and apricot kernel powder, this scrub delivers a smooth texture that avoids irritation. Using this only requires a pinch and may need a bit of water to form a paste. I like rubbing this on my skin gently and slowly, and I love the subtle exfoliating effect.

After incorporating this into my routine, I noticed immediate skin texture improvements. I noticed that my skin feels supple, and my pore size looks reduced. I also love that this does not make my skin feel dry. Using this with Froya Organicsโ€™ Day Balm makes for a perfect combination.

 

Froya Anti Age Glow Day Balm review

 

Anti-Age & Insane Glow Day Balm – This balm has become my go-to for hydration and radiance. Infused with thistle, sea buckthorn, pomegranate, and squalane, this provides deep nourishment while combating signs of aging. From the first application, my skin felt noticeably softer, hydrated, and even looked radiant. Over days of consistent use, some dry, patchy areas around my cheeks and chin have completely diminished. Even some old acne scarring has softened and healed.

I like that this balm has a lightweight formula that absorbs quickly without leaving a greasy residue. The scent is super soothing and instantly calming, which is a huge plus.

This balm can be thick and may be challenging to spread, but I like to warm this on my fingertips (a little bit goes a long way), and the balm spreads evenly.

 

Froya Organics Hyper Potent Dark Circles Eye balm

 

Hyper Potent Dark Circles & Eye Bags Balm โ€“ As I age, my dark circles and puffiness are becoming more problematic, but this eye balm provides visible results within days. Formulated with thistle, arnica, pomegranate, and squalane, this targets under-eye concerns effectively. The silky, balmy texture absorbs quickly and works well under makeup. I love using this at night. I find that this helps with reducing puffiness upon waking up and adds a brighter appearance around my eyes, which helps in combating a fatigued look.

 

Froya Organics magic wrinkle night balm review

 

Magic Wrinkle Eraser Night Balm – True to its name, this night balm delivers transformative results overnight. Packed with beeswax and wild-harvested Norwegian plants like arnica, this balm is meant to deeply nourish maturing skin while reducing wrinkles and improving skin elasticity.

This has a balmy texture similar to the Glow Day Balm and Eye Bags Balm, and this does not clog the pores or feel heavy on the skin, even if used overnight. After several days of use, I wake up to slightly less saggy and dry skin. I cannot wait to see what this product will do to my maturing skin with continued use.

Froya Organics has truly redefined natural skincare by combining Arctic-harvested ingredients with science-backed formulations. Each product delivers visible improvements in skin health while honoring simplicity and effectiveness.

As someone who has experienced promising and impressive results from this collection, I highly recommend Frรธya Organics to all women and to anyone looking for a complete skincare system for their maturing skin and other skincare issues.

Samaya Kapha Eye Cream Review

Samaya Ayurveda eye cream

 

Hello. Here is a quick eye cream review that I have been enjoying these days. The Samaya Kapha Eye Cream is the latest eye cream to hit my vanity counter, and I am happy to report that it works very well after weeks of trying it on my undereyes. It is one of the newest additions to the Samaya Ayurvedic all-natural skincare line that is based on an individualโ€™s dosha (energy).

 

Samaya Ayurveda eye cream review

 

Prior to using the Samaya Eye Cream, I have been experimenting again on a couple of eye creams that I mostly used on rotation. I can say that I liked a few, but none of them really impressed me. As I was thinking of going back to my old favorites, I had the opportunity to try the Samaya Kapha Eye Cream, which I call a perfect natural undereye moisturizer. The feel of the eye cream is not like most eye creams which moisturize the undereye skin for only a few minutes until the skin becomes dry again. The Samaya Kapha Eye Cream is different and unique in its consistency because the texture has the perfect blend of fluidness and creaminess. It feels a tad slippery and somewhat creamy at the same time, making it very easy to spread all over the undereyes. This type of consistency keeps the undereye skin moisturized for a long time. The formula does set on the skin right away, but it does not make the skin feel rough. Further, the formula does not pill and is easy to blend with concealers and foundations.

Since the product is all-natural and made of clean ingredients, there is no discerning scent, and my skin did not get irritated from the product. Most importantly, the product comes in an easy-to-dispense pump, and the size is considerably large for an eye cream. For me, that is a big plus, given that I tend to use eye cream products at least twice a day. The Samaya Kapha Eye Cream has caffeine, green tea, and probiotics, among others, aiming to reduce puffy and tired undereyes. Indeed, my undereyes look more revitalized and less puffy as I continue to use the product.

Overall, the Samaya Kapha Eye Cream is another outstanding all-natural clean skincare from Samaya Ayurveda. Just like their moisturizers, cleansers, treatments, and exfoliants, I highly recommend their line of eye creams, especially the Kapha Eye Cream.

 

Note. Big thanks to Samaya Ayurveda skincare for providing the Kapha Eye Cream. The review and opinion herein are solely by the editor.

Latest Moisturizers, Cleanser & Eye Creams

The weather is slowly warming up and there’s a bunch of new summer-ready moisturizers, eye creams, and cleansers in town. I’ve been testing a few them via some samples and some that I’ve actually purchased in regular size as I feel like they’re so good that they’re worth keeping as part of my skincare routine.

 

latest summer moisturizers

 

If you’re into gel or water-like moisturizers like Tatcha’s The Water Cream (reviewed HERE) or Belif’s The True Cream Aqua Bomb, then you’re gonna find this review very helpful since you will find several options to choose from apart from these two creams mentioned. Also, if your skin is in the normal to oily, sensitive, or slightly dry range, these lightweight creams and gels are the ideal choice if you’re gonna be out and about in this coming warm and humid season.

 

Moisturizers & Cleanser:

 

Peter Thomas Roth Hungarian Thermal Water Mineral-Rich Moisturizer

 

Peter Thomas Roth Hungarian Thermal Water Mineral-Rich Moisturizer (1.7 oz: $58) – This is a lightweight cream that goes into the skin easily, and it has a slightly earthy scent to it. It isn’t sticky and it makes the skin feel supple right upon application. It’s a great cream if you have a normal to oily skin, it’s also the perfect cream if your face tends to get slightly dry during the day, but this isn’t the most moisturizing if you’re super dry. I’ve used this for several weeks now and I have not noticed any skin irritations, which is great.

 

Murad Nutrient-Charged Water Gel (1.7 oz: $60) – A must-have for oily skin type, the texture of this is very similar to Belif The True Cream Aqua Bomb. It’s is a lightweight, cushiony, water-gel that hydrates the skin very well and it’s also non-sticky. There is a mild floral scent to it, and it’s a great all day moisturizer and to layer under makeup. I like this a lot and it feels like nothing on my face once applied. This isn’t for the ones with really dry skin, but if you have dry patches or if you have normal to sensitive skin, then this is a great moisturizer to try.

 

Glamglow Waterburst Hydrated Glow Moisturizer

 

Glamglow Waterburst Hydrated Glow Moisturizer (1.7 oz: $49) – OMG! I LOVE This Cream SO much. It smells like Oreo cream filling and it feels like Tatcha The Water Cream. It’s a very light cream-gel that turns into water, and it hydrates the skin for the whole day. It’s so good and it works for any skin type, just not for the super dry ones though, but this is definitely worth taking a shot. For me, this is one of the best scented lightweight moisturizers that actually works to moisturize the skin and keeps it hydrated for a long time without feeling heavy or greasy. A must-have and a holy grail. Oh, and I love that it comes in a decent-sized packaging and the price is not over-the-top.

 

Glow Recipe Blueberry Bounce Gentle Cleanser

 

Glow Recipe Blueberry Bounce Gentle Cleanser (3.38 oz: $34) – A blueberry-scented mild cleanser with actual blueberry bits and skin suspended in it. This cleanser not only cleanses the face, it also removes makeup. I’d say that this is a great everyday mild cleanser for normal, sensitive, or dry skin. If you’re the oily type, you may need something stronger or something that foams better than this, because this doesn’t seem to foam that much, and if you have too much makeup on, it’s gonna take some rubbing to completely take it all off.

 

Glow Recipe Watermelon Glow Sleeping Mask (1 oz: $22, 2.7 oz: $45) – This cooling moisturizer/mask has a true fresh watermelon scent that is extremely refreshing to the senses. This is a very light gel texture-wise, and you can use it as a wash-off mask or as an overnight one. Since this gel is very light, it goes into the skin easily and it keeps it moisturized. However, I feel like this is great as a 10-minute wash-off mask only, as for its overnight moisturizing ability, well, I find this to be quite weak, especially if you tend to have dry skin or has some dry patches. I wouldn’t suggest this as an overnight mask even during the dry winter season either. A regular thick moisturizer would probably do a much better job.

 

Drunk Elephant Protini Polypeptide Cream

 

Drunk Elephant Protini Polypeptide Cream (1.69 oz: $68) – Meet my other holy grail moisturizer. This lightweight cream may seem plain and boring at first, but it’s not, and it’s the reason why I’m starting to believe in Drunk Elephant’s skin care products. Know why? this cream is very unassuming but it packs a punch. Its texture is not too thick and not too thin, which makes it ideal for almost all skin types. It doesn’t even have any captivating scent to it, and if it does, it’s just so plain, but the ingredients and its packaging are so worth it. It has peptides and amino acids which made a difference in my skin’s appearance and elasticity. I noticed a more radiant and renewed glow on my face like I’ve got baby smooth skin on. I never had any irritations with this cream so far, and it also works as an overnight moisturizer for me as well. On top of that, I really love the easy-to-dispense packaging since it’s so easy to release the right amount of product without having to dip your fingers in the tub, which makes it very hygienic.

 

Eye Creams:

 

OleHenriksen Banana Bright Eye Crรจme

 

OleHenriksen Banana Bright Eye Crรจme (0.5 oz: $38) – This eye cream can be tricky to find nowadays because it’s almost always sold out at least at my local Sephora and also online. There’s a reason for it, and it’s because this is probably one of the best eye creams you can buy. It smells great, it performs great, and the ingredients are also great. Though I’m not entirely sure if there’s banana into it, but this eye cream is inspired by the banana powder that some makeup artists used in order to brighten the under eyes. What I did notice is the nice sweet orange scent that is both captivating and invigorating the moment you apply this on the skin, and its scent stays on even after a couple of hours. Because of its orange scent, expect Vitamin C as one of its main ingredients, which is awesome as I’ve always wanted to incorporate this skin brightening ingredient to the dark areas of my face, like my undereye circles which have not seen the light of day for ages. The cream itself is creamy, kind of mid-weight type of creamy, it’s not so crazy thick that it’s sticky, but it’s not very thin either. I haven’t seen the brightening effect on my undereye yet, but this has a slight almost-invisible sheen on the skin once applied, however, the slight sheen goes away immediately but this cream keeps the area around the areas super hydrated even throughout the next day. This also goes well under concealers and foundations, and there’s ample product inside its bright orange packaging. This eye cream is definitely a must.

 

Chanel Blue Serum Eye Revitalizing Serum (0.5 oz: $70) – The latest eye serum released by Chanel and it’s worth giving a try. It’s a lightweight creamy serum with a barely noticeable clean scent. It goes into the skin easily and it makes it supple, smooth, and hydrated. It has green coffee and olives as some of its ingredients. Since I’ve started testing this, I feel like my eyes look well-rested, and a little depuffed. I definitely prefer this over the Le Lift Eye Cream.

 

Summer is fast-approaching so expect more lightweight creams and gel moisturizers to be released soon apart from the ones mentioned above. Bottom line, I still love and recommend Tatcha’s The Water Cream, Belif’s The True Cream Aqua Bomb and Tarte’s Drink of H20. However, I also suggest that you give some of those products above a try. You may wanna start with Glamglow Waterburst Moisturizer, Murad Nutrient-Charged Water Gel, or DE’s Protini Polypeptide Cream. For the eyes, the Banana Bright Eye Cream by OleHenriksen is worth a shot.
