UpCircle - Reviews and experiences

Overall, I'm pretty happy with this range — it's become my go-to for mornings and nights. I slap on the face cream in the AM under sunscreen and use the peptide serum at night; together they actually stop my skin from flaking at the desk, which is nice. The eye cream is fine, nothing life-changing. Shampoo gave a lovely lather and calmed my itchy scalp, conditioner makes hair soft. Smells pleasant but sometimes a bit strong. Ordering was straightforward and it arrived on time, I just wish it wasn't a tad pricey.

I ordered this a while back and the parcel sat with the courier for almost a month — I almost forgot I'd ordered it, annoying. Customer service stepped in and offered to resend, which they did, and I'm grateful. I started using the eye cream a few days ago. Too early to tell if it actually reduces anything, but the texture is nice and that little cooling roller feels great in the mornings. Overall a calm surprise, really.

one scent’s a bit strong and the lid isn’t premium, but the upcycled approach and how it performs won me over (and no, not sponsored).

try a sample or patch test, and give a few weeks before judging. Not magic, but consistent. I still make my own balm sometimes, but I keep coming back to their moisturiser. Ordering is straightforward and deliveries were reliable, which helps.

I’ll repurchase the night cream, even if I’m still meh about the rest. I needed something after a couple of winters where my skin got flaky and stubborn (and my back was aching from moving furniture so I wanted an easy routine). I was sceptical at first — prices looked high and the marketing sounded a bit much — but the night cream actually fixed the dryness and kept my skin soft into the morning. The day cream is lightweight, so if you’re oilier it’s great as a base, but it didn’t feel rich enough for my drier patches. Shampoo and conditioner are fine, nothing wow — same result as other brands I’ve used. I like the eco-friendly packaging and the company’s idea, but hate subscription pushes and wish they had refill options. Overall I’d recommend trying the night cream; it converted me from doubtful to pleasantly surprised, even if I’ll be picky about the price next time.
