Indeed Labs Fillume Volumising Moisturiser Review







After trying the Indeed Labs Retinol Reface product, loving it, and using ever since I first tried it, I still needed a moisturiser to use in the mornings, as you only use the retinol moisturiser in the evenings. Still on the mission to have perfect young skin, as always!
From my research it seemed that if I am using retinol I need something that is very moisturising, as the retinol product is quite strong. I didn't need one with a specific SPF as my bb cream has a high SPF of 50, so that wasn't an issue.
I thought it would be a good idea to go with something from the same range (Indeed Labs), as I thought they would probably be designed to work well together (and they don't cost a massive amount), so I tried out the Indeed Labs Fillume Moisturiser which claims to restore the look of facial contours, plump the appearance of furrow and laughter lines and improve the tone and texture of the skin.
I always have a bit of an eyeroll at Indeed Labs's claims. From the ingredients listed below I think the claims are simply unlikely. What I think they should have claimed is that it is a deeply emollient moisturiser, fabulous for dry and dehydrated skin, works brilliantly to 'lock in' a serum, oil or hyaluronic acid product and beats the competition for a fab plumping moisturiser at a super low price point.

The emollient ingredients it contains are: Isononyly Isononanoate which is an ester that functions as a skin conditioning agent and occurs naturally in cocoa and lavender oil, Caprylic/Capric Triglyceride, derived from coconut oil and glycerin which is an excellent emollient and skin repairing ingredient as it contains fatty acids that help the skin repair itself and resist loss of moisture.
It does contain some alcohol and some silicone's but it doesn't feel like it does, if that makes sense. It doesn't have a silicone-y feel to it and the alcohol content must be fairly low as it isn't detectable to me anyway and doesn't cause me any irritation.
Overall, I have been using this for about a month and think it is an excellent moisturiser that I will keep using, the ingredients and value for money are well worth purchasing it. I absolutely love the packaging as you press the top of the pot and it dispenses the cream onto the top for you to swipe off, so sanitary! I use two pumps and still have plenty of product left after a month so it lasts well.
Definitely worth a purchase in my opinion if you have dry skin, a tendency for eczema, dehydrated skin or similar. It does state that it is good for all skin types but I think this is one to avoid if you have greasy or oil skin or a tendency for spots as it will probably be too rich.
You can purchase from Boots or Indeed labs and it costs just £24.99 for 30ml
