REP - pickycutiepie review for Nutrinature Ultra Moist Gel Oil

🌟 RE:P Nutrinature Ultra Moist Gel Oil I received this product for free from Picky and RE:P in exchange for my honest review. 🌟 Price Point: ~USD$30 for 30ml 🌟 Key Ingredients: Packed with EOs (Lavender, Bergamot, Orange, Rosewood, Rosemary, Eucalyptus), and fragrances (e.g. Limonene, Linalool) 🌟 Texture: The name of this product was quite misleading - i expected a thick oil texture, but it really is a thick gel, which I kind of enjoyed! 🌟 Thoughts: Let’s put the EOs aside for now…. I actually enjoyed the texture of the product - it is a thick gel texture, which spread super quickly. Surprisingly, the fragrance wasn’t too overpowering (despite the bagillion EOs lol). Honestly, some of REP’s branding resonated with me (cruelty-free, environmentally-conscious). In particular, I agree with REP’s aim to reduce the number of steps/complexity of skincare routines, through “multifunctional”, all-in-one products (e.g. toner/serum/moisturiser together). However, here’s my take: the naming and wide variety of products under REP kinda goes against this philosophy — the names of the products doesn’t make it immediately clear for consumers, on what function it serves in a skincare routine. In addition, there seems to be a huge variety of products (cream, multi-item, night mask, mask) which sounds quite complex rather than simplified really. Also, the part on natural ingredients I do not agree with, the definition of “natural” itself is silly, and isn’t necessarily better than “processed” chemicals. Also, if “natural” means EOs… no thank u!
