The INKEY List Peptide Moisturizer Review
Before talking about the moisturizer, let’s quickly talk about the brand itself since they’re actually pretty new in the market being just founded in 2018. What’s interesting about them is their mission to not only sell products but to also educate their customers about their skin and the right ingredients that can actually benefit their skin type.
Personally, I find this very impressive especially at this time when misinformation can easily be disseminated. This principle can help them set their brand apart from others!
On top of that, they pride themselves for being cruelty free!
Peptide Moisturizer
One of the products that the INKEY List carry is the Peptide Moisturizer. This is a daily moisturizer that comprises of two different peptides to help support the natural collagen of the skin and keeps it hydrated.
This moisturizer is currently sold for $18.99 CAD at Sephora for a 50 ml bottle.
What I love about the Peptide Moisturizer?
I purchased this moisturizer on a whim about two months ago after running out of my old moisturizer. Since my skin tends to go dry during the colder months, I decided to choose one that can help with this concern. After reading some great reviews and due to my curiosity about the brand, I decided to pick the Peptide Moisturizer.
Although I did not have a good first impression about it, I eventually discovered some great things about this moisturizer after a few weeks of continued use.
First thing that I noticed is the texture of the moisturizer. It is light weight and feels really soft on the skin. This texture also helped for an easy application and my skin seemed to absorb the product pretty easily as a result.
I was also able to test the hydrating capacity of this moisturizer really well since I’ve been using it this Winter season. I must say that this helped my skin to stay hydrated for the most part. In fact, I didn’t notice any dry spots on my skin which I usually get during the colder season. Although I haven’t been staying out lately, I can say that this moisturizer definitely contributed in keeping my skin moisturized and soft.

What didn't I like about it?
I am not a big fan of the packaging although I can say that I love the minimalistic branding that they have on it. What I do not like is the fact that you need to hit the pump for the product to come out. I personally thought that this is not very hygienic and efficient since you need to constantly sanitize or wipe the pump after every use to avoid product build up.
Another thing to consider about this moisturizer is that a little goes a long way. If you use too much product it can take time for the product to penetrate your skin leaving you a white cast all over your face until it is fully absorb. Although this is not the product’s fault, it can be a downside if you are rushing to get ready.
Conclusion
Over all, the Peptide Moisturizer from The INKEY List is a very decent daily moisturizer. It delivers on its promise regarding hydrating the skin at a very reasonable price. Although I can’t really say that its anti-aging benefit is true since this effect can take time just like with other moisturizers in the market with the same claim.
I am also impressed with the transparency of the brand and their desire to provide real skin care education about to their clients.
