There is a really faint cucumber scent which personally I love, especially on a warm morning, it’s bright and refreshing but doesn’t linger.
SUNDAY RILEY TIDAL SKIN
For me, I always get freckles in the Summer (regardless of how careful I am in the sun) and I regularly get PIH (post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation – that pink/brown mark left behind after a spot heals that seems to takes ages to fade) and this helps to lighten them both up a bit which make me look like I have a more even skin tone overall. But what it does do really well is lighten pigmentation slightly which gives your skin an overall brighter look. NOTE: I want to be clear here though, this isn’t going to move Melasma or get rid of decades-old sunspots.
Then you’ve got the brightener Alpha Arbutin works to lighten dark spots and discolouration. Papaya Enzymes act to gently exfoliate the skin for a soft and smooth texture and Horse Chestnut Seed Extract helps to tone. It contains two types of Hyaluronic Acid that aid in moving moisture into the skin and Tamarind Seed Extract which helps to keep the hydration there. There are loads of gel moisturisers on the market, even a great deal that look very similar (*cough* Neutrogena Hydro Boost) but where the Sunday Riley Tidal stands above the rest is in the ingredients. I’ve been using this treasure since it launched in 2016 but I typically reach for this in the warmer months. Creams and lotions galore, but generally I’m not a gel formula kind of girl. If you open my drawer of moisturisers – yes, I have a drawer, it’s a small drawer though, I promise, so please hold the judgement – you’ll notice a bit of a theme.
