Great moisturiser to reduce oils

I have been using this for a week and have noticed a huge difference in my skin. Before using this my skin would become really oily and greasy throughout the day but using this has stopped that. I would give it a 5* but for me i just don't like the scent of it.

The best moisturiser!

This has to be one of my favourite products ever! I use this moisturiser every day and it keeps my skin feeling hydrated, balanced and smooth all day. I have oily skin but also dry patches in places and it leaves a lovely glow and doesn't make my skin look too shiny. You don't need too much so a tube will last a while which makes it excellent value and the consistency is not sticky like other moisturisers I have used in the past. I have also found this works really well under makeup which smooths out the dry patches.

Thick Cream

The cream has a nice texture and isn't oily at all. However, I struggle with dry skin and it felt initially it moisturised but throughout the day, especially on more dry errors including my nose seemed to feel dry as the day went on. However great for people with oily skin

Fresh skin - gorgeous texture!

I've been using this for a week or so and my skin is has already improved in texture and is more balanced. I have oily/dehydrated skin and so this is perfect being oil free - it doesn't clog my pores at all. The texture is extremely lightweight but I still feel as if I'm getting enough moisture. It works great as a make up base and also under my SPF. Lovely product!
