It has a stable feel. It spreads easily and has excellent moisturizing power. I've been using it with confidence for many years.
I use this whenever my face feels irritated. It has a nice scent and moisturizes well, so I feel reassured. I love it so much that I want to keep it on hand as a talisman for when I'm in trouble.
When the air gets drier in the fall, you want to moisturize your skin more than usual, but you don't want your makeup to smudge. No special ingredients are needed. This cream is perfect for those times. It spreads smoothly and after a short time, I wipe off the T-zone with a tissue before applying makeup. My under-eye area still gets dry, so I apply a thin layer of Vaseline. This cream is non-sticky and can be used all year round.
This is the cream you want to use when you want to avoid sticky skin but still want to moisturize! In the middle of winter, I think it needs a little more moisturizing power, but I felt it was good when you want a light finish after using a pre-moisturizing lotion. It doesn't feel too oily, so it will be very useful in the summer. The packaging is like hand cream, so it's perfect for traveling.
It's non-sticky and blends in well, so I use it in the morning before applying makeup. I no longer have to worry about it getting stuck in my pores. At first, I thought it was a little pricey because of the price and size, but you only need a small amount, so it's not bad value for money!
