Dermatologists Are Raving Over Ogee’s Skincare Line: Are the Ingredients Worth the Hype?

I’m a skeptic by nature. When something seems too good to be true, it usually is.

So when I first heard dermatologists raving about an organic, all natural skin care line, I thought it was just another gimmick. I’d been using prescription-strength creams and serums my whole life that were recommended by estheticians, so why believe this new hype?

Well, like every skincare junkie out there, I had to know if The Discovery Set by Ogee was really worth it. My skin was looking pretty dull and lackluster, so I figured it was time to experiment with something new—I’m so glad I did!

Here’s why:

Cleansing Ingredients That Soothe the Skin

I’ve been using the same facial cleanser forever, and I never knew it wasn’t working for me until I tried Ogee’s Liquid Gold Cleansing Oil and Botanical Brilliance Exfoliating Cleanser.

For starters, the Liquid Gold Cleansing Oil is super gentle and perfect for removing makeup. The two stars here are its Golden Jojoba Oil and Soothing Frankincense Extract. The Jojoba Oil works to gently wipe away makeup and hydrate the skin, while the Soothing Frankincense Extract works to calm inflammation. 

I’m so used to having to scrub my skin raw to get my makeup off, I never stopped to think there was an easier way. This cleanser makes my skin feel calm and cared for.

Then there’s the Botanical Brilliance Exfoliating Cleanser. I’ve tried other exfoliators in the past and wasn’t impressed, so I didn’t have high hopes for this one—I was wrong. It’s gentle on the skin, and its Jojoba Beads, Seeds, and Waxes work to remove dead skin cells and make my face feel super soft and smooth. 

A Lightweight Oil and Serum That Doesn’t Make You Feel Greasy

As someone with combination skin, I’ve always been skeptical about oils and serums thinking they’d make my skin oilier, but the Seeds of Youth Serum and Jojoba Glow Face Oil had the opposite effect. In fact, the Jojoba Glow Face Oil is actually non-comedogenic, which means it won’t block your pores! 

By morning, my skin felt perfectly balanced and radiant. It was as though I was glowing from pregnancy hormones, except I’m not pregnant!

The Seeds of Youth Serum uses a blend of Hyaluronic Acid and Edelweiss Flower Plant Stem Cell technology to hydrate and make my skin appear firmer and plumper—which is exactly what I need as I age (skin tends to sag and lose elasticity as we get older).

And the Jojoba Glow Face Oil uses a signature blend of antioxidant-rich essential oils to balance oil production and hydrate. I no longer wake up with excess oil on my skin.

Non-Irritating Formulas for Sensitive Skin

Something I don’t love: irritated skin from prescription-strength products.

Something I do love: how gentle yet effective the Indigo Dream Renewal Cream and Brightening Botanical Eye Balm are.

Using harsh chemicals on my skin can cause it to freak out and isn’t all that safe around my eyes (the most sensitive area). But as someone who thought that it was the only way, I was willing to put up with the negative side effects.

Not anymore. The Indigo Dream Renewal Cream is rich, hydrating, and soothing thanks to its refreshing blend of Hyaluronic Acid and Ceramides. My face feels calm and hydrated, which has helped to reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles (something dry skin loves to accentuate).

And when it comes to the Brightening Botanical Eye Balm, I love how bright, awake, and smooth my eyes look. It uses a natural retinol called Bakuchiol, which is a lot gentler yet just as effective as chemical retinoids.

Try Travel Sizes Before Committing to the Real-Deal

One of the reasons I’m so hesitant to try new skincare products is because they never come in small sizes. What am I supposed to do with a full size bottle of something I don’t like?

That wasn’t a concern with The Discovery Set by Ogee. It comes with trial-size formulations of their best-selling skincare products like the Liquid Gold Cleansing Oil, Botanical Brilliance Exfoliating Cleanser, Seeds of Youth Serum, Jojoba Glow Face Oil, Indigo Dream Renewal Cream, and Brightening Botanical Eye Balm.

I love that I was able to try each product before committing to full-size bottles. The set even came with a cute Organic Cotton Beauty Bag, which is perfect for traveling!

I’m Sold—Organic Skincare Is Where It’s At

Despite my hesitation to give up my previous skincare routine, my skin is happy I did. It feels hydrated, smooth, balanced, and calm.

I loved each product so much that I couldn’t choose between them—I already ordered full size bottles of each. But if you want to sample them first, be sure to take advantage of this set. At just $125, The Discovery Set is a much needed investment in your skin. Try it today—your skin will thank you!
