An age old, but rarely focused part of beauty is sleep. It is called beauty sleep for a reason! There’s so many different studies and recommendations on the value of a good night sleep. The thing is, with busy lives and even busier beauty routines, it can be hard to make it a priority. This Works is a newer brand to Canada that focuses on 24 hour skincare solutions to get you feeling your best throughout the day. I have two products that I’ve been trying out and would like to share my thoughts!
The Brand
As mentioned, The Works focuses on skin solutions for your entire day; morning, noon and night. Your skin is exposed to a lot of environmental damage, toxin build, etc. Each product contains a ‘superblend’ of ‘naturally derived and scientifically proven’ trio of ingredients that provide the staples of each item:
- Natural botanical oils
- Actives
- Natural therapeutic fragrances
No Wrinkles Extreme Moisturiser
First off, I’ll say this is one of the prettiest jars of skin cream in my collection. The No Wrinkle Extreme Moisturiser ($84 CAD) is like a big pretty ice cube. I always feel sort of weird trying ‘wrinkle creams’ as I honestly don’t have any to really test it on. Trying this cream though, it’s much more than just a wrinkle cream. After literally one use, I saw a difference. The texture of my skin felt so much smoother and just plumper in general. I think this is a great night cream, but you can use it morning or evening. With continued use, I noticed my skin felt so smooth! I will definitely be continuing to use this and would recommend!
Deep Sleep Pillow Spray
Now for the most unique item I’ve tried in awhile, the Deep Sleep Pillow Spray ($34 CAD). You spray it on your pillow and it’s supposed to help you fall asleep. Funny enough, I’m actually a pretty decent sleeper. I can fall asleep pretty fast, so I was curious to see if this changed my sleeping at all. Spraying it on my pillow, the scent is pretty strong. It smells very ‘herb-y’, (lavender, chamomile, and vetiver to be exact) which some people might have an issue with. For me though, I liked using this instead of my diffuser (which can spit out similar scents). It’s more of a laziness thing instead of filling my diffuser up with water. I found when using this I fell asleep just as fast (thank goodness) but got a more solid sleep. Whenever I woke up, I still felt tired (really bad sleep schedule) but rested. If you have a tough time sleeping and want another solution, this is worth a try!
And there we have some really intriguing skincare from This Works! All in all I was very impressed with the brand. The items seemed original and packed with all good ingredients! I would definitely try out the brand if you can. Sephora has this Beauty Sleep Kit which contains minis of two of their pillow sprays. This might be a good tester to see if it works for you!
Thanks so much for reading! Have a great day!
