Dr.Scheller's moisturizer with argan oil & amaranth


Since the old cream (on the right) is almost done with got myself a new one (left). I only buy these on sale (which occurs almost monthly in my local supermarket - thank you, Selver). Dr.Scheller's products are from Germany, have all kinds of different nature cosmetics certificates and have won all sorts of awards. This time I got the Pomegranate facial toner and their most expensive anti-wrinkle day cream with amaranth and argan oil.
First impression on the cream was, well, that the scent is not as pleasant as the previous one (thistle and chiaseeds) had. Both creams are day creams and therefore a bit light in consistency. I could not use them (for going outside) during winter on the really cold days. Since the autumn is long, wet and mostly warm (warm to a northerner means above 0C), it'll do great for autumn. For cold times during the winter I shall revert back to trusted Dr. Hauschka. 

I could not decide which one to get: the anti-aging creme with amaranth and argan oil or the anti-mimic wrinkles cream with blackcurrant and marula, the latter smells delicious but was not on sale at the time. 
Ingredients are natural, texture is nice and smell, well ok, could be better but still, it's ok. The facial toner on the other hand smells great and seems to work great too. After using it my pores sure seem to shrink if judged my the feeling on my skin (contains alcochol).

Glycine Soja Oil*, Helianthus Annuus Seed Oil*, Hydrogenetad Coconut Oil, Decyl Oleate, Glyceryl Stearate Citrate, Cetearyl Alcohol, Caprylic/Capric Triglyceride, Squalane, Cetearyl Glucoside, Argania Spinosa Kernel Oil, Amaranthus Caudatus Seed Extract, Mauritia Flexuosa Fruit Oil*, Spilanthes Acmella Flower Extract, Sodium Hyaluronate, Tocopherol, Palmitic Acid, Stearic Acid, Lecithin, Xanthan Gum, Benzyl Alcohol, Sodium Benzoate, Potassium Sorbate, Alcohol, Ascorbyl Palmitate, Ascorbic Acid, Citric Acid, Parfum, Limonene**, Citral**,  Linalool**, Geraniol**, Citronellol**, Coumarin**.

Uus Dr. Schelleri niisutaja  on leidnud tee mu koju: nad lihtsalt on nii soliidsed, armsad ja kuidagi oskavad naha vahele pugeda oma klaaspurkide-pudelite ja looduslähedaste ravimtaimelõhnadega. Seekord siis küpsele nahale mõeldud (vist sai see liiga vara endale muretsetud aga noh, varsti saab otsa, vaatan uue) argaaniaõli ja rebasheina päevakreem. See peaks olema kalleim kreem dr.Schelleri valikus. Vaatasin samal ajal ka poes mustasõstra ning marula miimikakortsude vastast kreemi kuid kuna too ei olnud parasjagu soodusmüügis, jätsin tolle riiulile järgmiseks korraks. 
Kreem on mõnusa vedela struktuuriga kuid selle lõhn võib inimesele, kes pole taimsete toodetega eriti harjunud, veidi vastu käia. Mustasõstrakreem oli palju parema lõhnaga. Kreem imendub kiiresti ja sobib seetõttu hästi mineraalpuudri alla niisutajaks.
Ma alati vingun, et Dr. Schelleri kreemid pole talveks piisavalt rasvased - ja alles nüüd koitis mulle, et ma olen ju alati päevakreemid valinud. Mine tea - võibolla oleks just see rasvasem öökreem meie külmemapoolsetel talvepäevadel heaks päevakreemiks? Teinekord proovin ära, siis kui järgmine soodusmüük ees terendab (aitäh, maaletooja või siis Selver). Granaatõuna näovesi oli samuti sooduses ja hetkel ei saa ma aru, miks ma ta üldse ostsin... ma ju pesen meigi õhtuti mikrofiiberlapi ja sooja veega maha, milleks veel näovesi? Ja silmade ümber seda ka kasutada ei saa, on teine ju alkoholiga... hetkel ilutseb niisama tualettlaual ning leiab kasutust vaid siis, kui keset päeva meiki uuendama hakkan.

Argan Oil Benefits said...

each smooth pit contains one to three kernels, which look like sliced almonds and are rich in oil. The kernels are then removed and gently roasted and this accounts for part of the distinctive, nutty flavour of the oil. It takes several days and
about thirty kilograms of fruit, roughly one season’s produce from a single tree, to make only one litre of the precious liquid. The cosmetic oil, rich in vitamin E and essential fatty acids, is used for massage, facials and as a magic ingredient in anti-aging cream.

I've been using argan Oil at the moment, have you used it? Could you compare the two? I've always been a fan of Lee Stafford, and like you said its so much cheaper than most hair oils so it'd be a bargain if it was the same quality! :) Organic Argan Oil
