I bought a sample size set that includes the cream and Night Repair. It has a really pungent smell. The sample bottle dispenses a lot, so maybe it's prone to bacteria? The smell is stronger than it was the first time I used it. I wonder if this isn't the case with the regular 200ml bottle? The smell bothers me so much that it doesn't seem to be a focus on the effects. I've been repurchasing the Night Repair Essence for a while, but I don't think I'll be repurchasing the lotion for now.
This is my first time purchasing this product. I have purchased ESTEE LAUDER's lotion several times, and it is moisturizing and easy to use.
Unfortunately, it didn't suit me as it irritated my skin a little. I'm glad they offer a small trial size.
It's been a while since I last bought a department store cosmetic. I've used the blue sample before, and it smells just like pickled plums. When I apply it to a cotton pad, it feels like it penetrates deep into my skin, which is amazing. I used it when my skin wasn't in great condition, and I got compliments on my skin. It's a bit pricey, and I personally find the scent a bit strong, so I'm giving it a minus two stars.
I once tried this product after it was recommended to me by a beauty advisor. I didn't notice much difference from the regular version, but it does feel a little less sticky. However, it's still moisturizing enough that even my dry skin doesn't feel dry.
