  • Lush textures, indulgent body creams

Korres earns strong reviews for sensorial body care and effective skincare, with multiple users reporting softer, smoother, more hydrated skin from staples like the Greek Yoghurt Foaming Cream Cleanser, Velvet Skin Drink, and richly absorbing hand and body creams; the brand is good. Reviews also flag drawbacks: heavy or overbearing fragrance in several products, occasional breakouts from richer creams, shiny finish on the yogurt moisturizer for oily skin, and inconsistent longevity of tinted lip butters.

  • I cannot say enough good things about this body cream, it goes on, so smooth and absorbs quickly. This makes my skin feel soft and supple, and has really made a difference after using consistently. The smell is very refreshing and beachy!

  • I am obsessed with this hand cream this is so lovely. It is rich and absorbs well and smells amazing and so clean. This is my favorite hand cream at the moment and it feels nourishing and makes my hands so smooth!

  • Obsessed with their Jasmine body lotion. Bought this in Greece and have been hooked ever since. Nice clean fresh products. Keeps my skin hydrated all day. Jasmine scent is great for my hormones. Keeps me smiling all day.

  • I absolutely love the hydrating shower serum. I'm on my second bottle and it absolutely changed my skin. I'm sad that some of the scents are being discontinued, but I'll still keep buying the bottles!

  • I have yet to find a product I do not like - especially obsessed with the Wild Rose 15% Vitamin C Spotless Serum & Santorini Grape Velvet Skin Drink. Once you start, you'll never go back! Truly high quality and their rewards program is incredibly well designed too!

  • I've only ever used one product from this brand, so that's all I can really talk about here. That's the Greek Yoghurt Foaming Cream Cleanser, which I got a sample of in a beauty box at one point. This is the only premium cleanser I truly make a point of watching for sales on. After all, it's a facial cleanser, which doesn't feel like it should be a premium product - but, boy is it nice, and well worth it. It's very gentle on the face, lathers well, and seems very effective, while also being extremely moisturizing and soothing. My face is extremely soft and hydrated feeling even after just using the cleanser. I tend to get some every Black Friday directly off their website, and ordering and shipping have always been straightforward - I've never had any issues that needed to be addressed.

  • I had a few things over the years first one ever was the lip balm which I still like and have (not sure they still make it). I also had some anti wrinkle products which I bought in pharmacy in Greek and they were ok; currently I think I would just stick to bath and body. I like the unique shower oil I recently bought in TKMaxx (it smells lush, I love vanilla scents) which is to be used in the shower. I also used it on the damp skin after the shower and it feels quite nourishing and luxurious. I like the scents of their products and it’s mostly natural origins which I appreciate.

  • Korres has amazing products! Have used various creams and serums over the last 5 years and always buy them again. Ingredients that work without the nasties! Highly recommendable 😍🤩

  • The Korres Santorini Grape Renewing Body Cleanser smells amazing. It's like taking a shower with wine. I love it. It has aloe extract in it, which makes my skin feel extra soft. Apparently, the brand has been around for some time, although I've only just come across them. I look forward to trying some of their other skincare products.

  • The Yoghurt After-Sun Cooling Gel was recommended to me years ago when I suffered from terrible sunburn. It's been a staple in my medicine cabinet since although it's recently been phased out and I don't think it has been replaced by anything else. It's the only after-sun that is cooling and not sticky while still smelling pleasant.

  • I liked using the sample of the Skin Drink I received!

  • i have oily combo skin and the yogurt moisturizer is perfect + lightweight enough without being greasy! i wish it had a tad bit less shine but works well under a mattifying sunscreen.

  • Korres products are high-quality. I first fell in love with their lip butters, perfectly tinted for a pop of color and hydration. I only wish they were longer-lasting. Upon going to Greece, I picked up a few additional products, including a tinted lip balm that I love. Again, I wish the color was long-lasting, but appreciate the quality ingredients from this moisturizing product.

  • Most of the products I've tried from Korres have been brilliant. I love their shower gels, the scents are out of this world, and not a bad price for the quality. I didn't love the Rose face cream as it broke me out, but it's very rich so would probably work better for dry skin. I think the packaging is a little busy in design, they don't seem to have updated it in a while.

  • Being a fellow Greek, I must say Korres has been around for many years. I always have it as a staple in my skincare or cosmetics. However, sometimes the scents are a bit overbearing and heavy when it comes to skincare or body care. I must say their makeup is the best but isn't sold domestically (if not mistaken). If you are ever in Greece, go to the local drugstore or they may even have it in the airport, and find Korres makeup, like their lipsticks in glossy and matte finishes. The colors are the best, and the formulation is premium.

  • Used to LOVE their Greek yogurt moisturizer. Now it seems like it’s harder to find them inside retail stores.

  • I have purchased many of their body wash/ gels. The scents were amazing.

  • So far, I’ve only tried the yogurt cleanser. I received it a long time ago in an Ipsy box. I loved how clean and soft my face felt. However, if you wear a lot of eye makeup, you’ll need to be sure to remove it completely beforehand with a separate makeup remover as this cleanser did not wash off any mascara at all for me.
