In this 82E review post, we are reviewing Cucumber Quench, the lastest offering from Deepika Padukone’s Skincare brand 82°E. this lightweight moisturizer for oily skin is helpful.
In the last few years that I’ve been doing beauty content, I have realized that investing in your skincare is a better approach than hiding behind the concealer! So I try not to skip my CTM. For an oily-skinned girl like me, uncovering the ideal moisturizer is similar to uncovering a hidden gem in the world of skincare. However, this light moisturizer gel, Cucumber Quench by 82E, is one such hidden gem that has captured my attention. It claims to be the perfect moisturizer for normal to oily skin, so I had to try it. In this 82E review post, let us look at the ingredients and practical uses of this game-changing lightweight moisturizer designed by our favorite Deepika Padukone herself!
82E Review – Cucumber Quench – A Lightweight Gel Moisturizer
Let’s look at how this lightweight moisturizer, Cucumber Quench, fared, in this 82E review post.
Packaging:
Deepika Padukone’s skincare brand, 82°E, is no doubt an expensive brand, and thus I was expecting premium packaging. This skincare product came in a well-designed, premium-feel box that hosted the glass jar of Cucumber Quench. It is also, thankfully, packed with sustainable material and not plastic bubble wrap! Overall, the brand gets brownie points for its innovative packaging.
Ingredients in 82°E Cucumber Quench
Since I have oily skin, I am very particular about the kinds of ingredients I use. I stay away from products that have shea butter or coconut butter. So before ordering, I checked the ingredients on their site. The product contains a host of skin-friendly ingredients, some of which I am not very sure of; however, the two main ingredients in this lightweight gel moisturizer for oily skin are cucumber and xylitol.
Cucumber is something I use extensively in the summer because of its soothing properties. Xylitol is a kind of naturally derived sugar that is known for its moisturizing properties.
My Experience of Using 82E Cucumber Quench
Imagine a moisturizer that doesn’t feel heavy on your skin but still keeps it hydrated and supple all day. That’s the promise of Cucumber Quench – weightless hydration. And this thin moisturizer gel successfully fulfills its promise. Cucumber Quench gets absorbed into the skin immediately after application and doesn’t leave any oily residue. The light texture offers hydration without the worry of clogged pores or excessive shine, making it a godsend for anyone with oily or mixed skin.
However, you might want to reapply it after 4-5 hours or use a hydrating mist to keep the hydration in your skin going, especially if you are in an air-conditioned setting.
Overall, my experience with Deepika Padukone’s skincare brand so far has been good, though this is the first product I have tried out. I am, however, pretty intrigued with their sunscreen range, as I believe good sunscreen is a must for healthy skin. Let’s see if I can try out one of the sunscreens at 82°E.
