Best Dry skin moisturizer | PURITO Centella Unscented Recovery Cream

categories: BEAUTY, SKINCARE

I never thought I’d get a chance to try the Purito products; firstly my gratitude to BeautyBarn for sending me these bunch of Purito skincare goodies for review purposes. These were gifted in the mid January and I had to take a week extra to fully sort my then skincare routine and get on to this Purito thing. And I started my Purito routine by the last week of January. After a thorough 2 month routine, here I am, with my views and thoughts and my experience using the Purito Centella Unscented Recovery Cream. Since I have a bunch of products from them, I thought I’ll make individual posts, probably in the descending order of the routine; hence the Recovery Cream comes first now. Keep an eye for coming posts and keep reading this article.

I am literally super late in talking about this, because of my website issues and stuff, this has been sitting in my drafts for so long. But anyways, here I’m. I had a chance to play with this huge bottle of gold. I mean isn’t it literally ‘the luxurious’ and liquid gold in a bottle. Argan Oil has always been my favorite hair oils for its nourishing and hair strengthening properties. Argan oil is also great as a hair serum for luscious locks. Having damaged hair inspite of my personal health issues and exterior factors, I had to maintain my tresses no matter what.
