Intensive Rescue Face Lotion

Great repair cream for skin that becomes dry and chapped in winter. Does exactly what it says on the tin after one application for the whole day, would definitely recommend.

I recently started using this Skin Intensive Rescue face lotion from Sorted, and it has made a noticeable difference for my dry and sensitive skin, particularly on my hands. Working in an environment that often leaves my hands parched, I've found this lotion to be incredibly soothing and effective. It not only helps relieve the dryness but also leaves my skin feeling noticeably smoother. One of the standout features for me is the scent. I appreciate that it's not overpowering in any way. In fact, I find it quite pleasant, with a subtle hint of mint that adds a refreshing touch. Taking a look at the ingredients, I'm impressed by the inclusion of natural oils like Tea Tree Oil, Eucalyptus Oil, Cinnamon Oil, and Orange Peel Oil. These not only contribute to the pleasant scent but also provide additional skin benefits. Furthermore, I love supporting products made here in the UK, and the fact that this lotion is vegan-friendly and cruelty-free aligns perfectly with my values. It's reassuring to know that the brand is committed to both quality and ethical practices. Overall, this lotion has become a must-have in my skincare routine, especially for combating dryness on my hands. It's effective, has a delightful scent, and boasts a lineup of natural oils. Plus, its UK origin and cruelty-free status make it a product I'm more than happy to endorse.

The sorted skin intensive face lotion is a thicker than most lotions it has a strong fragrance which has a throat lozenge effect, which may be to try and act as cooling on the face as its sort of minty. Given the strong fragrance I tested it on my wrist for a few days in case it gave me an allergic response. Thankfully it didn’t. I found the cream is thick and takes more rubbing in than lighter creams – it did leave my skin looking paler than before I applied it. The moisturising effect is great; in the weird August wind and rain of 2023 my skin coming back from hikes my face has been dry and wind beaten. The cream reduced the redness of the wind and was nice and soothing. Thanks to the resistance to rubbing into my face a little does go a long way. The small pack size means you can take it onto a plane and use it to resist the dry air; and then maybe thanks to the aloe and cooling feeling use it to ease skin after a day in the sun. (The strong fragrance makes me keep it away from sunburn along with other broken skin like eczema.)

I suffer from dry, itchy, sensitive skin, so I was eager to try this product. The Sorted Skin Intensive Rescue Face Lotion is quite strongly scented; if you prefer fragrance-free products, this won’t be for you. Personally, I think it's lovely; it smells of tea tree oil, peppermint, menthol, and eucalyptus all rolled into one. The lotion is thinner and runnier than a cream; it applies easily and absorbs quickly. I’ve found that a little goes a very long way, so the 50 ml should last a good while. It leaves my face feeling soft, soothed, and hydrated without being greasy. I haven’t had any adverse reactions to the lotion, either. This is the second product I’ve tried from Sorted Skin, and I’ve been extremely impressed with both. I highly recommend. Thank you for taking the time to read my review. I hope you found it helpful.

Smells medicinal!! Definitely not for sensitive skin!!! My wife with normal skin tried it too and she didn’t like it either!

This is a really excellent face cream perfect for irritated skin. The cream itself is runnier than I expected, so do be careful when squeezing! The first couple of times I used it I ended up with too much cream. The cream absorbs fairly well, it takes a little longer than other face creams I have used. The cream has a lovely cooling effect on the skin. I have been using it fairly regularly at night before bed, it has a lovely relaxing scent as well so pleasant to apply before sleep. My skin does look and feel less irritated and the cream is particularly good if my skin has had a lot of sunshine. I would certainly recommend this if you are looking for a calming face cream to help reduce redness.

This product goes on really nicely and certainly helps to hydrate my skin however the results only last for barely 24 hours before my skin goes dry again. Not only that he has a very strong smell which can be quite offputting when I put my make-up on over the top. Best to use before bed on a clean face.

I like this cream. It’s quite thin and non-greasy, easy to apply and readily absorbed. It has a distinct smell but I can’t quite identify it – not a perfume, more what I’d call a ‘hospital’ smell. Eucalyptus perhaps? The listing says aloe vera but I’m not convinced. It doesn’t linger but I quite like it. This is a UK-made product and there don’t seem to be any obvious nasties among the ingredients. The price is reasonable too, and the lotion seems to be doing a terrific job on the dry, flaky skin on my forehead. For those reasons, I’m impressed enough to order more Sorted Skin products, hence an easy five stars from me.
