Rich, creamy and very moisturising

I started using this as part of my morning routine when my previous go-to long-time favourite had run out. I was a little surprised by the whippy, oily- looking amino acid oil-free cream but it went on so smoothly and created a lovely sheen with no white crinkles in the wrinkles. It is rich and left my skin soft, nourished and glowing. I'm definitely going to buy another tube !

Super soft skin

I've been using this product for over a week now and have noticed how soft my skin is feeling. Have been using it in the mornings and it is absorbed quickly and leaves my skin feeling fresh and moisturised. Will definitely keep using.

Love this!

I've been using this for about a month now and it's great! Having used more greasy moisturisers in the past, this feels so much nicer. It absorbs quickly but makes my skin feel fresh and bright and it stays hydrated all day. It has also helped reduce redness on my cheeks due to peri-menopause and the hormonal spots that I usually get, haven't appeared, so a great product all round. I will definitely be continuing to use this every day.

Unlikely to use again

This product was somewhat disappointing, it doesn't smell great and doesn't moisturise very effectively.
