Based on an independent clinical test on 22 people, of all skin types, tones, and sexes using the product twice per day. However, I really don’t like bashing brandings, but when its necessary, I am merciless. What am I reviewing and how much did I pay? Huda Kattan has announced the newest addition to their Wishful skincare brand; the Wishful Honey Balm Jelly Moisturizer which is launching today. Their last product launch was the Clean Genie Cleansing Balm, so it’s exciting that they’re now launching a moisturiser.

Wishful said they have also added finely crushed, ethically-sourced lavender pearls that give a beautiful iridescence to the skin. So that the long-term benefits of the moisturiser gives an immediate glow that is so beautiful and satisfying. According to an independent consumer test carried out on 35 people, all skin types, complexions and genera, with use of the product twice a day.Result? In addition to providing instant hydration, Honey Balm minimizes water loss from the top layers of the skin so they stay hydrated for up to 24 hours. The lavender-tinted pearl infusion offers instant radiance and a blurring effect, leaving skin luminous, radiant and sublimated! Honey Balm can be used day and/or night, and because of the gorgeous luminous finish and texture, it also works really well under makeup as a primer – but honestly, this makes my skin look so pretty that sometimes I don’t even want to put anything on top!

Use daily, morning and evening. Use twice a day for best results. Honey Balm should be used after your serum step and can be used before or after face oil. Always follow with SPF. Also, this product did not cause me to break-out and it did not increase the size of my pores. So, it didn’t leave my skin in worse condition than I started (and believe it or not, its not common for this to happen). What did I not like about this product? If you are a regular reader you’ll know that an inability of any product to work with my sunscreen is an egregious failure. I have reverted to using this as my night or evening cream: honestly, it does nothing for my skin. I care about the beautiful iridescent glow during daylight hours and not when I am about to sleep.I was to use the Wishful balm as part of my day routine but it kept causing my sunscreen to peel, so I switched it to my evening routine. Aesthetics of the Honey Balm The Wishful Honey Balm Jelly Moisturizer is described as being a luxurious, unique formulathat really goes above and beyond to hydrate, brighten, reduce the appearance of pores, and bring that glow. Huda has struggled with problematic skin, so it was important for her that the Wishful Honey Balm Jelly Moisturizer had a formula that would work for all skin types, because it’s non-comedogenic and non-acnegenic too.
