| Review | Willing Beauty HY+5 Regimen Skincare

As many of you probably have noticed, with the rise of social media, there have been more and more beauty brands popping up.  Willing Beauty is one I had seen a round for a while on Instagram and I was very happy to receive a PR package from them to try out their line. I am often skeptical about the quality of a brand, especially if they are relatively new and sending out PR packages to influencers but I must say... I am VERY VERY impressed by this line! 

Let me preface this review by saying, I know that I am very fortunate to have very good skin and although I may still be considered "young", I believe it is never too early to start an anti-aging regimen.  I also very rarely like every product from a skincare line but all these products have really blown me away! Although, Willling Beauty is not necessarily targeted toward "anti-aging", isn't all skincare "anti-aging" in some way? Willing Beauty is a line for all ages and I truly believe that is the case! This products are very universal for all skin types and all ages! Their secret to beautiful skin is what they call the HY+5 Complex, which includes Vitamin C, Prickly Pear Seed Oil, Antarctic Glycoproteins,  Alpine Edelweiss Flower, and Deep Sea Hydrdothermal Enzymes.

Let's start with the products that first had me floored from the start! 

The PARTNER IN TIME Age Defying Night Serum retails for $42.00 USD (also, included in their complete kit for $98.00 USD) This serum is somewhere between an oil and serum. It is very light and fast-absorbing but also incredibly hydrating and almost "creamy" in texture! It feels amazing on my skin and very nourishing! 

Ingredients listed here:

water, propanediol, squalane, glycerin, dimethicone, polyglyceryl-3 beeswax, HY+5 COMPLEX™ (sodium hyaluronate (hyaluronic acid), aminopropyl ascorbyl phosphate (vitamin c), opuntia ficus-indica fruit extract (prickly pear cactus), pseudoalteromonas ferment extract (marine glycoproteins), leontopodium alpinum flower extract (edelweiss), thermus thermophilus ferment (antioxidant bacteria)), jojoba esters, xanthan gum, caprylic/capric triglyceride, carbomer, cetyl alcohol, polyglyceryl-6, distearate, ethylhexylglycerin, sodium hydroxide, saccharide isomerate, caprylyl glycol, pyrus malus (apple) fruit extract, rose extract, lavandula angustifolia (lavender) flower/leaf/stem extract, elettaria cardamomum seed extract, rubus idaeus (raspberry) fruit extract, citrus aurantium dulcis (orange) peel extract, jasminum officinale (jasmine) flower/leaf extract, anthemis nobilis flower extract, citrus aurantium amara (bitter orange) flower extract, phenoxyethanol


The SLEEPOVER Replenishing Night Cream retails for $30.00 USD (also, included in their complete kit for $98.00 USD) This is a rich yet non-greasy face cream. Again, like the serum, very nourishing and hydrating. With the serum and night cream combined, after one night of use, my skin was glowing! It look so hydrated and plump in the morning, I was shocked! The crazy part is that every morning, my skin looked insanely glowing and healthy! Over time, I saw a very obvious brightening effect on my sun spots! I honestly haven't felt my skin looked this good in a while! Typically, I only get this effect from very expensive advanced skincare ranges!

Ingredients listed here:

water, cetyl alcohol, glycerin, dimethicone, squalane, polyglyceryl-3 beeswax, jojoba esters, glyceryl stearate, meadowfoam delta-lactone, HY+5 COMPLEX™ (sodium hyaluronate (hyaluronic acid), tetrahexydecyl ascorbate (vitamin c), opuntia ficus-indica seed oil (prickly pear cactus), pseudoalteromonas ferment extract filtrate (marine glycoproteins), leontopodium alpinum extract (edelweiss), thermus thermophilus ferment (antioxidant bacteria)), phenoxyethanol, sodium gluconate, sodium benzoate, carbomer, xanthan gum, polyglyceryl-6 distearate, ethylhexylglycerin, citrus paradisi (grapefruit) peel oil, helianthus annuus (sunflower) seed wax, caprylic/capric triglyceride, sodium hydroxide, acacia decurrens flower wax, citric acid, pyrus malus (apple) fruit extract, rose extract, lavandula angustifolia (lavender) flower/leaf/stem extract, elettaria cardamomum seed extract, rubus idaeus (raspberry) fruit extract, caprylyl glycol, citrus aurantium dulcis (orange) peel, jasminum officinale (jasmine) flower/leaf extract, anthemis nobilis flower extract, citrus aurantium amara (bitter orange) flower extract

The DO OVER nourishing cleanser retails for $18.00 USD (also, included in their complete kit for $98.00 USD) is a cream cleanser with nourishing oils to gently cleanse the skin and nourish it. I love cream cleanser because they are so gentle on my dry skin and they still remove all dirt and makeup. This cream cleanser doesn't foam, it just feels creamy but once rinsed off, your skin feels very clean but without any residue! I really feel my skin is very clean but not at all stripped of moisture. In fact, it feels more nourished than before! For the price, this is an excellent cream cleanser! 

Ingredients listed here: 

water, sodium lauroyl methyl isethionate, cetearyl alcohol, sorbitan oleate decylglucoside crosspolymer, glycerin, stearic acid, coco-betaine, pyrus malus (apple) fruit extract, cetearyl glucoside, HY+5 COMPLEX™ (sodium hyaluronate (hyaluronic acid), tetrahexydecyl ascorbate (vitamin c), opuntia ficus-indica seed oil (prickly pear cactus), pseudoalteromonas ferment extract filtrate (marine glycoproteins), leontopodium alpinum extract (edelweiss), thermus thermophilus ferment (antioxidant bacteria)), sodium chloride, ethylhexylglycerin, sodium hydroxide, glyceryl polyacrylate, caprylyl glycol, acrylates/c10-30 alkyl acrylate crosspolymer, phenoxyethanol

For daytime...

The DAYDREAM illuminating day moisturizer retails for $24.00 USD (also, included in their complete kit for $98.00 USD) is a very light runny moisturizer with a very fine white pearl throughout. It sinks into the skin rapidly like a serum and leaves a very natural glow to the skin. It is a great makeup prepping moisturizer, I like that it contains no SPF, so you can use it at night or when you are going to be taking photos. Like the rest of the line, this moisturizer is very nourishing but non-greasy. I can oily skin types to dry skin types loving this product! 

Ingredients listed here:

water, glycerin, cetyl alcohol, dicaprylyl carbonate, carthamus tinctorius (safflower) seed oil, butyrospermum parkii (shea) butter, hydrogenated ethylhexyl olivate, propanediol, sodium acrylates copolymer, HY+5 COMPLEX™ (sodium hyaluronate (hyaluronic acid), tetrahexydecyl ascorbate (vitamin c), opuntia ficus-indica seed oil (prickly pear cactus), pseudoalteromonas ferment extract filtrate (marine glycoproteins), leontopodium alpinum extract (edelweiss), thermus thermophilus ferment (antioxidant bacteria)), phenoxyethanol, sodium gluconate, potassium azeloyl diglycinate, caprylic/capric triglyceride, lecithin, ethylhexylglycerin, hydrogenated olive oil unsaponifiables, pyrus malus (apple) fruit extract, rose extract, lavandula angustifolia (lavender) flower/leaf/stem extract, elettaria cardamomum seed extract, rubus idaeus (raspberry) fruit extract, caprylyl glycol, citrus aurantium dulcis (orange) peel extract, jasminum officinale (jasmine) flower/leaf extract, anthemis nobilis flower extract, citrus aurantium amara (bitter orange) flower extract

Finally... 

The GET SET SPF 30 tinted primer retails for $24.00 USD (also, included in their complete kit for $98.00 USD) is a sheer creamy beige tinted silicone-based primer. The tint helps significantly with correcting the skin for any discolorations. I notice redness and my sun spots are significantly blurred with this primer on. Additionally, the silicone base. blurs pores and texture on the skin. It is also oil controlling without feeling drying.  My skin feels very soft and ready for foundation. I love the SPF in the primer, that is something very rare to find on the market. I am not a primer person but every time I use this primer, my skin looks very smooth and flawless. I feel that with the SPF included, I'm more likely to use it daily. 

Ingredients listed here: 

Active Ingredient: Zinc Oxide (20%), Inactive Ingredients: Isododecane, Caprylic/Capric Triglyceride, Cyclopentasiloxane, Dimethicone, Stearoxymethicone/Dimethicone Copolymer, Polyethylene, Polysilicone-11, C24-28 Alkyldimethylsilyl Trimethylsiloxysilicate, HY+5 COMPLEX™ (Sodium Hyaluronate (Hyaluronic Acid), Aminopropyl Ascorbyl Phosphate (Vitamin C), Opuntia Ficus-Indica Fruit Extract (Prickly Pear Cactus), Pseudoalteromonas Ferment Extract (Marine Glycoproteins), Leontopodium Alpinum Flower Extract (Edelweiss), Thermus Thermophilus Ferment (Antioxidant Bacteria)), Tocopherol, Camellia Sinensis (Green Tea) Oil Organic, Aloe (Oil) Barbadensis Leaf Extract, Iron Oxides (CI 77492) (and) Dimethicone, Mica (CI 77019), Iron Oxide Red (CI 77492) (and) Dimethicone, Iron Oxides Black (CI 77499) (and) Dimethicone, Glycerin, Carthamus Tinctorius (Safflower) Seed Oil, Aqua, Caprylyl Glycol, Polymethylsilsesquioxane, HDI/Trimethylol Hexyllactone Crosspolymer

Overall, I highly recommend the line! I have loved and been impressed with every single product, which is extremely rare for me! I recommend buying the HY+5 Regimen, which is the complete kit and the best value! It will also allow you to test out all their amazing products. If you are not looking for a whole brand new regimen, I highly recommend looking into the night serum and night cream! These are such amazing products that you really must give a try! Although I have a lot of skincare to get through, I plan to repurchase the night cream and serum, they are my favorite!
