This marks my second winter since I started using this product, going from 5 to 7, and I'm giving it a higher rating. This year, I tried a few expensive creams with anti-aging in mind, but the heavy creams left my face feeling tight and dry from the inside out. This product, on the other hand, keeps my skin hydrated and moisturized from the inside out, improving my skin texture. Even when I used a cream I wasn't keen on, applying this beforehand made it much easier. Now I only need this oil-based moisturizer, and I'm truly grateful for this product at this price. ◇ I have oily-combination skin, and I don't like glycerin. This product contains glycerin, but it's not heavy and has been a great help in the winter. It does get a bit sticky in the summer, so I apply a thin layer mainly around my eyes and mouth. It's rare to find a product that provides anti-aging care at this price (even cheaper if you buy the refill) and that gently protects my skin without stinging or itching, even when my skin is constantly changing every month, so I plan to continue purchasing it.
