I can't say enough good things about Beauty Affairs. I've been a loyal customer now for about three years and can't fault their delivery - it feels like I get VIP Express Post when I just make a regular order. I (now) do a lot of online shopping across the board (clothes, shoes, beauty, etc.) and Beauty Affairs stand out from every other vendor I have shopped with throughout COVID as fast, reliable, and essentially flawless in their supply chain when even the previously-good-ones have slowly fallen victim throughout 2021 to COVID disruptions and delays. Whatever they're doing, it works! I will only shop elsewhere for beauty, cosmetics, and perfume on the odd occasion they don't stock a brand I want, but apart from that, I say: MECCA, who? Sephora, what? ^.^

I have always loved the fast service of Beauty Affairs with free samples with my orders. Last month my shampoo bottle broke in the post and leaked everywhere. When I advised Beauty Affairs they sent a new bottle straight away free of charge. Unfortunately this order did not arrive so when I advised them of this Anna at Client Care sent me a new bottle straight away but along with this she also sent me the matching conditioner, and my favourite full cleanser to say sorry. I have not experienced such amazing customer service in a long time. I’ve always had amazing service from Beauty Affairs and will not buy my beauty products anywhere else

I had a very good experience with Lorena from customer support. I was querying the cost of Youngblood mineral makeup on live chat (excellent product by the way) of which I had bought 2. The cost of the item displayed for sale appeared less than the final checkout price. It turned out the sale price was for a particular color but this was unclear on the page. Lorena looked into the discrepancy immediately and after explaining the reason, offed to give me a refund on that particular sale to compensate for the confusion. She was polite and considerate throughout. It’s good to know that such a fabulous Aussie company has such lovely staff!

This product is like water gel heaven. It is a Clarifying Oil-Free Water Gel that is very lightweight, and very quick-drying. This is my new holy grail. It hydrates right before your eyes, it instantly soothes my skin and cleared up my acne spots. The gel is very calming and pleasing as well. Additionally, I believe this product would work great for all skin types. It's definitely another great product by Murad. I definitely recommend trying it.

I received a free deluxe sample of this Murad Clarifying Oil-Free Water Gel Moisturizer with a recent Ulta online order. I’ve been using it daily for a few weeks now and overall, it’s a great product… This moisturizer has a very lightweight watery texture that absorbs beautifully into my combination skin. It contains Hyaluronic acid (which helps boost hydration), Salicylic acid (which helps exfoliate for a more balanced non-greasy finish), and Korean red pine extract (which helps fight microbiome imbalance and irritation associated with breakouts). I like that this moisturizer doesn’t leave my face feeling tight or leave it looking super oily. I also love the packaging, a pump instead of dipping your fingers a jar is more hygienic and definitely easier to apply to ... MoreI received a free deluxe sample of this Murad Clarifying Oil-Free Water Gel Moisturizer with a recent Ulta online order.

This is an ideal balanced gel moisturizer for daily use… I’ve noticed over time that it’s calmed my hormonal acne and left my face perfectly hydrated. If you have combination skin that breaks out frequently like mine does, this would be a good buy for your skincare routine! You can purchase it at Ulta for $44 (USD).

Amazing product needs better packaging

Cream moisturizer caused me so many whiteheads and felt very heavy on my skin. I found this moisturizer and bought and it's the best decision I have made. It's light and moisturizes just enough for my face not to feel greasy, it gives that right amount of moisturizer. I would say this product is for oily skin as it will not give you that dewy look so people like. If you suffer from acne, I recommend. I also use the Clarifying cleanser.My only criticism is that the bottle is that the bottle hides the fact that it's such a small amount of product. You can't see how much product you have left which is bummer. As a person that suffers from acne consistency is key and I don't want to wake up one day and have ran out.

Clear and moisturized skin

I am on my third bottle of this. I was trying all kinds of different products to clear up the acne I get in my hairline, eyebrows, and around my chin. I have senstive skin so trying new products is a very long (and expensive) process of trial and error. I ended up decided to cut back to just a face wash, moisterizer, and spf. My skin looked clearer than it ever had in over a decade using this. Just to be sure it was this product I subbed another moisterizer for a week and i started getting breakouts again. Went back to this and cleared it up quick. I will never be without this in my skincare routine.I slowly added back in various products like an acid in the morning and retinol at night and I can still tolerate using this everyday with other products. I only use ... MoreI am on my third bottle of this. I was trying all kinds of different products to clear up the acne I get in my hairline, eyebrows, and around my chin.

I only use this water gel in the morning. As long as i let it settle for a couple minutes, I have no issues with pilling with my SPF and makeup.Only downside is that i much prefer the previous packaging that had the pump.

Long time moisturizer for acne prone skin

I have tried countless moisturizers over the years, and I keep coming back to this one (3+ years). A family member of mine is an esthetician, so even after years of trying different high cost brand moisturizers, none work like this one. When I do try to switch, I break out due to my sensitive skin. I have super sensitive skin due to allergies, and I've struggled with acne for years.It will most likely be the only moisturizer I will use for the rest of my life. I'm bummed they don't sell it in stores anymore, so now I have to order online. Nevertheless, after many trials and errors of different products, I will forever be the poster child for this stuff.

Not enough product for the price point.

First, the pros: this is a really lightweight, smooth moisturizer and works really well for oily, acne-prone skin (at least mine). I enjoy the fragrance; however, some might be put off by the fact that it’s pretty heavily perfumed, which is a little suspect for a brand that aims for the “clinical” skincare crowd. The biggest con is that it is really expensive and the packaging hides the fact that you’re getting very little in the bottle. I use one pump just in the morning and it lasts me maybe 3 months, TOPS. Another issue is that the heavy, opaque plastic container they use makes it hard to tell when you’re running low…one day you’ll try to pump it 2 months after buying it, and poof! All gone. So, if you’re spending in this price bracket, I’d recommend a different ... MoreFirst, the pros: this is a really lightweight, smooth moisturizer and works really well for oily, acne-prone skin (at least mine).
