Just wanted to know whether anyone has tried moisturisers and cleansers from this brand and whether it's worth the money.

Thanks

I use quite a few Akamuti products and love them!

Am currently using the Sweet Orange Cleanser which I think is good value for money - about £11 for a 120ml pot which will probably last me 5 - 6 months and is just as good as the Spiezia one I used to use which was about 3 times the price. It smells lovely and makes your skin feel really clean and soft.

I also use the Rose Replenishing Oil in the morning. It is good - nice smell and works well - nice and light. I use the Rose Replenishing Cream at night time - I wouldn't recommend it for the day as it is quite balmy and takes a while to be absorbed - but is lovely at night time. Both these moisturisers are worth the money - good value compared to similiar brands and will last a long time.

As you can tell I'm a huge fan of Akamuti - the only product I've tried that I didn't like was their Rose hand cream - it took forever to sink in and I kept leaving greasy hand prints everywhere.

I have tried the akamuti shea butter and really was not impressed. It was really bitty and for some reason my son was deeply allergic to it. I use baby shea from maples street organics. It helped immensely to clear up my sons eczema. I believe they are coming out with a large range of products this summer as well.

I like their shea butter - it is a bit gritty compared to the refined ones, but it does wonders for my dry stubbly legs .

The cocoa butter is great too - I'm rubbing it on my pg bump every night and (so far) no new stretch marks
