Around the beginning of January a company by the name of Just A Dash Beauty started following me on Instagram. I checked out their profile and discovered it was run by a young lady who had a dream of creating a skincare line that was not only affordable but delivered great results. The products are all natural, cruelty free and vegan. I liked what I saw so I followed them back. I then received a direct message from the founder and creator, Greta, letting me know a little about them and their products so I replied with my concerns and got a message back with some product suggestions.
With suggestions in hand I proceeded to visit the website, which upon arrival offered a discount if you signed up for email updates. I received a coupon code for 20% off and decided upon the #All About Moisture Hyaluronic Acid Serum ($38AUD). It promised to eliminate dry, itchy patches, hydrate and plump the skin. I let Greta know I’d made an order and asked if it would be ok for me to review the product on my blog. The feedback was very positive and I was even sent two additional samples to try out, the #Summer Fruit Salad Scrub ($36AUD) and the #No Handyman Needed Day Cream ($40AUD). SPOILER ALERT they’re all AMAZING.
I’d like to point out at this stage that this post is in no way sponsored nor am I affiliated with Just A Dash Beauty. I paid for the full sized product myself and received 2 x sample sizes of other products. This is just my opinion of the products and how they worked for me.
So, after the patch test (insert eye rolling here) I went on to use the products. I’ll review them in order of how they’d be used if you were to purchase all 3 of these products. The #Summer Fruit Salad Scrub claims to brighten, hydrate and minimise the appearance of pores. It’s a creamy formula with a slightly gritty texture, however don’t worry about that grit, the website specifies it isn’t harmful to the environment like others of a similar texture. As someone with dry skin, I exfoliate once a week, twice at most if I have a special occasion. This product is subtle enough to allow for the extra day without being too harsh, but works well enough that I can definitely feel a difference in my skin after use. I would recommend and purchase this product. The full sized product is 60mL, I personally think this would last a good while if you only used it once or twice a week, I still have a couple of uses left in my sample size and I’ve used it 3 times already.
Next up is the #All About Moisture Hyaluronic Acid Serum. This stuff is seriously great. It’s ridiculously hydrating without being gloopy or greasy feeling. It goes on really easy, doesn’t feel at all heavy and dries/sinks in within minutes. I have noticed a reduction in the redness in my skin (it’s still red but less than it used to be) and I’ve been able to reduce the amount of moisturiser I use after application. I will definitely repurchase this product and I’ve also been recommending it already to anyone who will listen to me. The bottle contains 30mL and the directions advise one pump per application mixed with a few drops of water. I’ve been using it for a month now and I’m only about half way through the bottle.
Lastly we have the #No Handyman Needed Day Cream. I love this as a day time moisturiser. It’s lightweight but effective. Makeup goes on smoothly and only the smallest amount is required. I’ve been using it every morning for a month and haven’t run out just yet (we’re close though) of the sample size. I’d love to get the full sized product and will be purchasing. It’s a moisturiser I would recommend, especially for people with perhaps oilier skin as it is nowhere near as heavy or greasy feeling as regular moisturisers, in my opinion. The full sized bottle contains 60mL and I personally think it would last a few months or more.
Overall, I think this is a great company with awesome products. What I’ve tried so far is effective and fantastic value for money. If anyone is interested in trying out some skincare that is not only good for their skin but contains no nasties I would give Just A Dash Beauty a try. At this stage shipping is only available to Australia ($6.95 flat rate for orders under $90 or free for orders over $90) and New Zealand ($15 flat rate).
Has anyone tried any of these products, or other products from the company? Or are there any you think I should give a go? Let me know in the comments below.
Until next time, Beauties xx
