THE EMPIRE
Hey Team,
So those of you that clicked all the way through to check this out, well you’re in for a treat.
I got sent a care package with a bit of a range of their products which I’ve been using since I got them, It’s important to us when we do our reviews that we take our time and do things right so we can get you guys our best information.
All I knew of the company was that they support our sunday meet ups, I picked up a bottle opener from a little event at Christmas and had seen their name around a little, When the box showed up, I shot an unboxing video before I started, and then looked more into the company and I was very pleased to learn they are very keen on local, clean and sustainable products and high quality products, which for the volume you get in a tube of moisturizer is totally reasonable.
Here’s the Unboxing.

As I said in our reel, I wasn’t sure what a lot of the stuff was for cause lets be fair, we don’t really look into that enough, I’m glad I did.
I think we’d all like a little extra pep in our step from feeling confident about going out as our best selves and this sure gave me that, it can change the course of the day.
There wasn’t anything in the box that I didn’t enjoy, I think there were a few key stand outs tho.
The Game face moisturizer is hands down the best I have ever used. I didn’t really appreciate how good till I was traveling and picked up the Cera Ve one I had and noticed the difference on how it feels on. It might be slightly more expensive than what I was used to but holy hecka its by far and away the best I’ve used and I will be replacing this now that its nearly run out. I goes on nice and as soon as its on you don’t feel it, the Cera Ve I’d been using before felt like it dried on a bit and this stuff just soaks in and leaves a long lasting feeling of fresh and hydrated, which is exactly what its supposed to do
The Rock and Roll face scrub was confronting at first, its got a lot of colour and texture but with a bit of water it foams up and gives basically the comparison of a cut and polish for your mug, which if you’re a clean shaven type of fella will feel nice and look good. I’ve used it with a light applicator and I’ve enjoyed the results a lot.
This eye serum was probably the most noticeable of the line up, if you’re a bit like me and you don’t look after yourself well enough or get enough sleep, this daily will keep you from looking like it, not since have I heard ” You look tired” even though I’ve been absolutely exhausted lately, its defiantly something I do most days ( some days we can’t be assed, but its worth it if you can keep it up) and yeah I can’t sing the praises of this one highly enough.
There was also a really nice soap which I’ve been reluctant to use cause it looks rad on my sink, there’s a very nice body wash, it smells good and cleans well, I did notice its less goopy and more watery than most body washes, There was also a Dark Moon hydrating cream, which if I’m honest I generally forget to use cause my night time routine is best described as ” efficient” cause generally by that time I’m ready to do the bare minimum and turn in for the night.
IF you’re looking for something good, this really is the best stuff I’ve ever tried. I’ll be topping up both the moisturizer and the eye serum and keeping them as my go to until I find something better, which will not be easy. Whilst I’m aware that most of you aren’t going to be super interested in this, I hope it cuts through to the people that are, These guys make great products and I really back them. whilst it might not be the cheapest out there, its worth it; in my humble opinion
