Superdrug Vitamin E Day Cream VS Superdrug Vitamin Radiance Balm

When I see similar products that brands do It kinda annoys me because is it really worth having two products that are pretty much identical? 

Today I am comparing the Vitamin E Day cream from Superdrug and comparing it to the radiance balm.

Question	Superdrug Vitamin E Day Cream	Superdrug Vitamin E Radiance Balm
What does it claim?	This cream claims: to bring 24 hour moisture and protects the sun from UVA and UVB rays	Vitamin E SPF 15 Radiance Moisture Cream contains light reflecting pigments to give an instant healthy glow to your skin, whilst providing 12-hour moisturisation and helping to protect your skin against the sun's UVA and UVB rays
Price	£2.99	£2.99
Packaging	Just like all vitamin e range it comes in a white tub with a brown band and writing.	Cream tube.
Ingredients	Aqua, C12-15 Alkyl Benzoate, Ethylhexyl Methoxycinnamate, Butyl Methoxydibenzoylmethane, Glycerin, Glyceryl Stearate SE, Glyceryl Stearate, PEG-100 Stearate, Octocrylene, Tocopheryl Acetate, Tocopherol (Vitamin E), Paraffin, Carbomer, Stearyl Alcohol, Cetyl Alcohol, Parfum, Pentylene Glycol, Sodium Lactate, Lactic Acid, Serine, Urea, Sorbitol, Sodium Chloride, Allantoin, Alcohol Denat., PEG-35 Castor Oil, Polysorbate 20, Aesculus Hippocastanum (Horse Chestnut) Seed Extract, Retinyl Palmitate (Vitamin A), Inositol, Calcium Pantothenate (Vitamin B), Linoleic Acid (Vitamin F), Biotin (Vitamin H), Sodium Hydroxide, Sodium Citrate, Phenoxyethanol, Ethylhexylglycerin, 2-Bromo-2-Nitropropane-1,3-Diol, Coumarin, Linalool, Butylphenyl Methylpropional, Alpha-Isomethyl Ionone, Disodium EDTA.	Couldn’t find it on Superdrug’s website
Formula	Thick Takes a while to sink in the skin Leaves a white cast on the skin	Thick  Not hydrating
How to use	I use this moisturiser as the last step in my morning skincare routine	I used this as a day moisturiser as the last step in my morning routine.
Overall opinion	Overall it’s not a terrible day cream, and for £2.99 having spf is a bonus! But it doesn’t leave my skin feeling overly moisturised and because of the white cast on my skin I have to wait to do my makeup which is not good in a rush. But it does come with a lot of product which last’s a while!	Overall I hate this product and couldn’t wait to use it up! It’s not hydrating, there’s glitter particles in the product which is very obvious on the skin! It doesn't sit well underneath makeup if anything it makes your makeup ‘roll'. I wouldn’t recommend this, it is horrible.

If I had to recommend one it would be there bog standard day cream but even then I would say a pay a little bit more and go for yes to, soap and glory or No7. 

I hope you found this comparison useful!

See you soon!
