MARGIN reviews and discussion

I ordered this for a thingdrop a month or so ago and entered the wrong shipping address that was undeliverable, oops! A few days ago i got an email from Drew who said it has been returned to him and asked for a new address and it arrived two days later (with a handwritten note!) - A+ for customer service The product details, branding, etc are great. The light cucumber sent felt fresh without being overbearing. It goes on super light and dries quickly. Couldn't be more thrilled with the purchase!

I love MARGIN's branding, it's incredibly thoughtful and elevated. MARGIN is a light-weight moisturizer – as someone with sensitive, dry skin it's not enough on its own for me. With that said, I love the glow it gives off ☀️, didn't experience any breakouts, and appreciate the fresh cucumber scent 🥒 I'd definitely recommend it to people with oily skin / their skin does okay with lightweight products.

The cucumber scent of this product is amazing. It creates such a nice daily moisturizing ritual. It is a lovely straight-forward skincare product (the moisturizer), which I really like about it. The packaging is simple and aesthetic.

I have been using this moisturizer for more than a week now and I really like it. This moisturizer doesn’t claim to be for dry skin so I wasn’t sure if it would be good for my skin type at all but I have really been liking it. I have very sensitive, extremely dry skin that usually burns whenever I apply moisturizer or other face products. This moisturizer does not make my skin sting at all! I can’t use this on its own because it’s not hydrating enough for dry skin (the brand says it’s best for normal/combination skin) but I put it on before I layer on any other hydrating products and this prevents my face from feeling any irritation from the other products and it seems to keep more moisture in my skin.

I picked this up from a #ThingDrop and was thrilled about it; I'm a white woman in my 30s, so yes I am always on the hunt for a Holy Grail face product. The Margin moisturizer finishes really beautifully, a midweight, seasonal transition type finish, so I love it winter into spring, and summer into fall. Also the weekly emails are actually quite good and not super annoying! I read them regularly!

I've used it for about a week now. It has a very mild cucumber scent that lingers after use. It's the first moisturizer I've used that makes my skin feel tighter for a bit after applying. I'll likely continue using my daily facial moisturizer with SPF when I'm leaving the house, and use this after showering to feel fresh.

I am by no means a skincare expert. Can't really comment on the quality of ingredients and all I know is that moisture = less wrinkles (maybe) and that I have moderately oily skin. Mediterranean roots 🤷🏻‍♂️. In the past I have tried A-System's Daily Defense Moisturizer and Overnight Rebuilding cream and was a regular user of The Ordinary's moisturizer. Loved the form factor and simplicity of A-System's products but they left my skin feeling fairly oily or "slick" at the end of the day/in the morning. I've really liked using Margin's lightweight moisturizer because it leaves my skin looking matte (not oily or shiny) and the scent is to be fucked with. It's the right blend of cucumber / mint without coming across as synthetic. As a bit of a self-proclaimed packaging nerd, unboxing Margin's product is what I would expect if D.S. & Durga and Apple collabed 🤤

I have never been one to splurge on my skincare but I am so glad I was introduced to this brand. I have fairly sensitive skin that will break out with new products but my skin has reacted very well to this lightweight moisturizer. It has made my skin smooth and even-toned. They also list their ingredients on the box which I really like. The company also shipped my order within hours of me placing my order!

My new favourite item in my medicine cabinet! As a moisturizer, Margin checks all boxes for me - it goes on smooth, the texture is perfect, and it smells amazingly fresh (cucumber water vibes). Most importantly since beginning to use it my skin has been dialled, with no breakouts/blemishes and more importantly glows all day long. I use it twice daily in the AM and PM.

Love this moisturizer from front to back. I am already using it every after a shower and shave — it's making my skin feel fresh and healthy. The bottle looks good enough to 'leave on the counter' according to my girlfriend. I appreciate the metered pump so I get the same amount every time. Complete attention to detail in the packaging from the box it comes in to the tape it's secured with. An impressive first product from this new brand.

Great online checkout experience, super easy to navigate. Order arrived faster than expected. Packaging is high quality and aesthetically pleasing. The product itself is a dream. Perfectly balanced weight for a daily moisturizer. Calming and light cucumber scent. Applies smoothly, feels instantly hydrating and absorbs quickly with no sticky or oily residue. I use it daily in the morning as a moisturizer and it doesn't interfere with any of my other products (SPF, makeup, etc.) Excited to see what this brand comes out with next!!

Great experience. Customer service was amazing & shipping was incredibly fast. Obsessed with the formula & the smell.

Incredible branding and the most beautiful packaging out there + great scent (very cucumbery 🥒- yum!). Unfortunately, the moisturizer is probably better for someone with less dry skin than me. It's also pricy for a small amount of ml, but if you're combo/oily skin, I'd give it a try.

The quality is so good, even the packaging. Should try itt.

Love to see a Canadian skincare brand! This product is full of great high quality ingredients. It's a lighweight moisturizer that has the most fresh and amazing smell. It leaves a matte finish - not greasy at all. It left my face feeling super soft after. Shipping was extremely fast which I can appreciate! Product bottle feels high end. List of ingredients + quality packaging = worth the price.

Loved using this product. I loved how it felt on my skin and provided a lot of moister. It was lightweight but not barely there if that makes sense. A great medium between thick and light. The pump was also good

So fragrant I didn't feel comfortable putting it on my face. I will keep it for a hand moisturizer. (Note: I don't typically use any fragrance in my face skincare.) Nice packaging - airtight container with pump.

Margin's products are super beautiful! I bought the cleanser at a store and thought it would be worth a shot, but I wasn't super impressed unfortunately :( It might've just been my skin, but it felt almost like the cleanser left a film on my face? Or maybe it was just hydrating? Either way, not for me -- but could be really great for someone else! Based on the other reviews, seems like this might just be a me problem!

Honest to god best product for face out there. I only use their stuff. Everything else sucks. Stop looking around and just sue this. The aesthetic is great, the product is great, founders are great. You have their moisturizers and cleanser and you can throw everything else out. Insanely good stuff.

Love the branding /packaging and quick shipping.
