Beautiful Creamy Texture That Absorbs Well

I have been using this cream 2-3 times a week (after applying retinol treatment which is extremely drying) and I find this moisturizer to be extremely soft and soothing on my face. It absorbs beautifully into the skin and leaves my skin hydrated and protected, however, I do find it can leave an oily feeling, especially in my T-zone.

Instant wake up

I had this in a travel size and have really enjoyed how much it wakes up my face and adds moisture! I can be a bit flushed after I put it on but it quickly goes away and my face is awake.

Nice moisturizer

I received it as a sample with my purchase but even after using it for a couple of days I noticed the moisturizer and nourishment effect of this cream. It does absorb pretty fast and gives skin more matte finish.

My Go-To Midday Helper

This is my go-to gel when I need a little extra moisture to my face without making my face look or feel shiny, oily or heavy. My face gets shiny mid-day and this is my favorite product to use.

Lovely gel that doesn’t cause oiliness

With combination skin, moisturiser is tricky, often resulting in breakouts and oiliness. This is brilliant! It is a pleasing gel consistency that absorbs quickly and doesn’t result in any oiliness. I’m so pleased to have discovered this after many years of searching.
