Is Sand & Sky Tasmanian Spring Water Worth The Hype?

If scrolling through instagram is a regular part of your day, you’ll be no stranger to Australian beauty brand Sand & Sky. Responsible for those insta-famous pink clay masks, the viral beauty brand is known for utilising niche native Australian ingredients (like pink clay and emu apple), with their latest release making use of Tasmanian spring water. The hero ingredient is sustainably sourced from a lake in Tasmania’s Mole Creek Karst National Park, with the Sand & Sky Tasmanian Spring Water range comprising a Splash Serum and Hydration Boost Cream.

Sand & Sky Tasmanian Spring Water Splash Serum Review

Made with a hyaluronic acid complex, fermented sea kelp, and a probiotic bifida ferment, the Splash Serum is designed to hydrate the skin, smoothen wrinkles and fine lines, promote skin elasticity, and strengthen the skin’s barrier. 

The Splash Serum is lightly citrus-scented, surprisingly lightweight and non-tacky, absorbing into the skin easily and providing a subtle plumping effect. It doesn’t pill under other serums or makeup, making it an easy addition to your current morning and evening skincare routine. 

AR Verdict: love this! The perfect serum for dry, dehydrated, or ageing skin types in need of a hydration boost. 

Sand & Sky Tasmanian Spring Water Hydration Boost Cream Review

Like the Splash Serum, the Hydration Boost Cream features hyaluronic acid and fermented sea kelp, however the bifida ferment is swapped out for red algae which works to improve the skin’s ability to retain hydration, providing lasting relief from dry skin. 

The Hydration Boost Cream comes in a weightless, gel-like consistency. It glides onto the skin easily, with its lightweight formula making it an ideal summer choice. The Hydration Boost Cream works well when applied over the Splash Serum, however is prone to slight pilling when applied over other serums. 

AR Verdict: a good warm weather daytime cream worn on its own or over the Splash Serum, however those with dryer skin types may require a richer nighttime cream.
