“Thank you so much Beauty Heaven for allowing me to be part of the GLOSSCARS Trial Team 2022.
As someone with oily skin I don't really use oils as part of my skincare routine but after trying this product, I think I will start!
This oil has a pleasant smell to it and feels really nice on my skin, I applied it at night before bed and felt my skin was noticeably softer when I woke up. I'll have to continue using it to see if it provides a glowy luminous look as the bottle suggests but overall I love this and will keep using it as a replacement to moisturiser.”
“I received this as part of the Glosscars Awards. I’ve never used Synergie products before and this one has made me very interested in their range.
Having had dry, sensitive skin for most of my life, I’m always on the hunt for a facial oil to boost my moisture levels, mostly in the dry depths of winter however I actually use facial oils all year round. It’s very viscous as an oil and it absorbs nicely into my skin. It’s not sticky or overly occlusive feeling. I’ve been mostly using this oil as part of my PM routine and it’s made my skin so smooth! It reduced some redness and lines around my cheeks however I don’t have many other wrinkles so I can’t comment on fine line prevention.
The dropper easy to use and is a unique curved shape. I found that usually 2 drops would be sufficient for my face and neck so I believe this product would go a long way.
This facial oil is fragrance free however I didn’t quite like the scent of the oil - it reminds me of an artificial cinnamon banana cake scent which does seem to linger for a bit.
Thank you to Beautyheaven and Glosscars for allowing me to trial this product”
“Packed with 8 potent plant-based actives, the LumiBalance multi-active facial oil moisturises, repairs, balances & protects the skin. It basically is an all-rounder!
Key ingredients:
Bakuchiol which is a great plant-based alternative to retinoid/retinol, much gentler on skin, helps lessen the appearance of fine lines & wrinkles, addresses skin hyperpigmentation and stimulates collagen production.
Ultra-calming lipid complex which is great for soothing sensitive, irritated or stressed skin. Supports wound healing & protects the skin barrier.
Prickly pear seed oil which has antioxidant & antibacterial properties, with high content of linoleic acid it helps skin retain water, keeping it hydrated.
Marula oil which has numerous anti-ageing, antioxidant & anti-inflammatory properties.
Argan oil has soothing & nourishing properties. Helps in reducing the appearance of wrinkles, scars and dryness.
Bisabolol which has anti-inflammatory properties.
Squalene provides hydration & promotes barrier repair.
Meadowfoam oil acts as an emollient, sealing in moisture and keeping the skin soft and supple.
I have been enjoying this anti-ageing oil in my routine since the last 2 weeks. I love how nourished my skin feels after use. I also love how it simplifies my routine. It comes handy when I'm lazy to apply multiple products, as it's packed with nutrients and is more than enough on its own! It's lightweight & fragrance-free, however there is a faint natural smell of the ingredients which is not noticeable after application. It is pricey, but the bottle is going to last a long time as just a few drops are required.”
“I received this as part of the Glosscars 2022 Trial Box.
Packaged in a luxury box, I knew this would be something that would exceed expectations once I began using it. It is housed in a bottle with a dropper, allowing you to control exactly how much you use and lets you get every single drop out of bottle.
I used this with my GuaSha face tool and found that it was just the right balance of ingredients to not be too oily or too dry. Applying this on a clean face, at night and working it into the skin, I found that my skin was dewy and glowy in the morning. Friends commented that I looked younger and wanted to know my secret.
The odour of the product is not offensive and is more neutral, however it did take a bit of getting accustomed to.”
“Am still not sure if I totally love this oil as it has a lot of PUFAs in there as well as some amazing oils (PUFAs - Polyunsaturated fatty acids.) The problem with PUFAs is because they are unsaturated oils, they have the tendency to oxidise - oxidisation essentially releases free-radicals - which over time obviously can in fact age skin. However, this product also has some truly amazing ingredients too. Squalane oil is a saturated oil and probably one of the best facial oils out there! Also Bakuchiol is an amazing alternative to Retinol. I think if you were to use this up quickly - before the oils oxidised - it would be a worthwhile purchase.”
“Thank you BH for including me in the trial and introducing me to such a lovely product. It was my first time trying a product from Synergie skin and I am extremely impressed with its performance.
I have dry, sensitive skin which is prone to breakouts and under the skin bumps thus I refrain from using oils on my face as they immediately cause breakouts. I find that this oil is very different from anything I have used in the past, its extremely light-weight but very moisturising and absorbs easily in the skin. I apply it at night after my serum (it has replaced my night cream as it is very moisturising) and I wake up to a beautiful, glowing skin in the morning which looks healthy. After using it for a little over 2 weeks, I have noticed that my skin has a healthy glow and the fine lines have reduced. Overall my skin looks very healthy, moisturised with no dry patches and younger.
I also added a drop to my foundation and felt that my face didn't dry out all day and it looked nice with no dry patches at the end of the day. I also like the dropper as its easy to control how much product I want to dispense.”
“Synergie Skin LumiBalance from Glosscars 2022 Trial Box. I have been using this product for two weeks but from the initial use, Loved it. Comes boxed and product is packaged in a frosted dark coloured glass bottle with a screw-on angled dropper applicator with the accuracy of only dispensing one measured drop at a time.
After cleansing and after applying my active serum, I’ve been applying 4 drops morning and night and gently massaging over my face and neck. It has the most lovely (all natural) aroma and being so lightweight, glides over the skin and readily absorbs.
LumiBalance deeply moisturises the skin and no other moisturiser is required ,however I still used a moisturiser after (as I needed to trial one at the same time!) and this product definitely made my skin feel so much softer upon waking the next morning. I do feel it has calmed my skin, making it feel less rougher and with continued use will reduce the appearance of fine lines.
It is a more expensive product but worth the price as 30mls will last a long time and with the dropper provided, it’s impossible to dispense more than a standard drop at a time.
I have used a few Synergie Skin products and all have been excellent products that I would have no hesitation in recommending and this one joins the list.
Made in Australia , Vegan and not tested on animals and contains 8 key ingredients with full ingredients list here.
ISOAMYL LAURATE, SQUALANE (STABILISED SQUALENE), OPUNTIA FICUS-INDICA (PRICKLY PEAR) SEED OIL, LIMNANTHES ALBA (MEADOWFOAM) SEED OIL, SCLEROCARYA BIRREA (MARULA) SEED OIL, SIMMONDSIA CHINENSIS (JOJOBA) SEED OIL, OCTYLDODECANOL, ARGANIA SPINOSA (ARGAN) KERNEL OIL, BAKUCHIOL, BISABOLOL, RIBES NIGRUM (BLACK CURRANT) SEED OIL, TOCOPHEROL (VITAMIN E), HELIANTHUS ANNUUS (SUNFLOWER) SEED OIL, HELIANTHUS ANNUUS (SUNFLOWER) SEED OIL UNSAPONIFIABLES, CARDIOSPERMUM HALICACABUM FLOWER/LEAF/VINE EXTRACT, ROSMARINUS OFFICINALIS (ROSEMARY) LEAF EXTRACT.”
“I was able to trial this product with BH and was pleasantly surprised at how easy to use it was and how well my skin reacted. The product comes in a reasonable size bottle with dropper attached. I would apply a few drops to my hand following cleansing morning and night, and then massage into my skin. It would absorb quite quickly and feel hydrated for the whole day. Glowing and radiant. I did however have to avoid anywhere near my eyes as I found the oil would make my eyes blood shot (that was my issue, not the product).
I used the product consistently for a few weeks and found that it was great to use when my skin was dry. I generally have very sensitive combination skin, so the times when my skin was a bit more on the oily side, I couldn’t use this product (too much oil caused a few too many pimples!). I did notice that it didn’t cause any irritation to occur which is something that I regularly experience with new products. My husband has quite dry skin and his skin reacted quite well to the product also, showing plumpness and hydration, and no signs of oiliness so I think this is more suitable for those with dryer type of skin.
The product however was packaged well. In a nice and neat box, in a reasonable sized bottle and dropper. It had simple packaging however it was modern and branded well. I hadn’t come across this brand before, so it was good to try something new.
A big thanks to BH for letting me take part of the trial of this product.”
