Grown Alchemist reviews and discussion

I have only tried a few of the Grown Alchemist products. One of my absolute favourite body moisturizers is the Mandarin, Rosemary Leaf Body Cream. The product smells lovely and makes me feel like I'm at a day spa. Their Natural Hydrating Mineral Sunscreen SPF30 was way too thick for my combination skin. I was hoping it would be a good fit, but I've found a better sunscreen and would recommend it over this. From a design perspective, I love that the Grown Alchemist brand identity (and *especially* the packaging) is well-structured, consistent, and scalable. The typography is cleverly playful and the product colours and finishes are a perfect mix of playful, sleek, yet sophisticated. Reminds me of Aesop. I love that they offer refills, and their gift sets are beautifully designed. During the initial craziness of Covid, Grown Alchemist launched a "pay what you can" campaign, which I thought was very considerate. One of the few brands that made such a generous offer during a very difficult time for many.

Whilst pricey, I love their hand creams. Luxurious, gentle on skin, and the most lovely scents! Plus, so aesthetically pleasing!

I tried grown alchemist nourishing shampoo and conditioner. I had heard good things and it was on sale so I bought it. It smells good. It wasn’t anything special, or a good match for my hair. The conditioner left my hair greasy no matter how hard I tried to get it out.

Love their branding and that they are using clean ingredients. IMO their products are a bit expensive but they do use quality ingredients (and their products smell really nice). My fav from this brand is the anti-polution makeup primer. Smells devine and gives me a matte look without drying my face. Perfect to apply my makeup.

I am loving the grown alchemist restorative body cream. It absorbs quickly leaving your skin with long lasting hydration and smelling like a relaxing vision. This lotion expertly formulated with a blend of shea butter, Jojoba oil, and vitamin E. To help improve your skin’s elasticity. It has subtle scents of mandarin, rosemary leaf, and vanilla. This lotion really elevates your self care game!

Hand cream is so thick and moisturizing. It feels great, however it is pricey.

I love their creams!

I have tried a variety of grown alchemist skincare products and have liked everything I've tried. Some were gifted as part of product review platforms and then I've purchased some myself. Their products are high quality and work well with my sensitive skin. I specifically like their gentle cleanser for my face and their serums. The products are quite expensive though. I gifted their hand wash/cream holiday set to my mom and she loved them but decided not to repurchase because of the price.

I have tried the hand wash because I was looking for an aesthetic bottle that also offers refill pouches. The dispenser looked lovely on my sink and the smell of the soap was great, however it did leave my hands quite dry.

.If you want to achieve a GLASS SKIN look, it is important to double cleanse. I use the gentle gel cleanser and I find it to be very effective. It has a pleasant fragrance as well.

Love grown alchemist. Particularly the primer. Makes my skin look instantly smoother and leaves a velvet finish. Great with and without makeup

The Grown Alchemist face cream gave me a rash, and the shampoo gave me dandruff. Now I have to carry my own products every time I go to Equinox! This is the worst update ever!

I had a sample of the Gentle Gel Facial Cleanser which is a wonderful tingly face wash cream. So I bought 4 of them, (which are not inexpensive!) for my grown kids. I received the product - exact same name and ingredients - but it is a heavier clear gel, not an easy to use cream. Why would they switch the product? I was very disappointed.
