Moisture sealant

I wasn't sure about this at first but after a few weeks am hooked. It is great under makeup as it seems to provide a protective layer which seals the moisture in my skin. I am sure my foundation looks fresher for longer. As with all Q&A products my sensitive skin does not become irritated either.

Nice cream, heavy duty

I liked the texture of the cream when I applied it, nice and thick and felt it would be very moisturising. However, not long after I have applied the cream it makes me face feel a bit tight. Saying that, it did moisturise my skin I just don't love how it feels after application.

Really wanted to like this moisturiser!

I thought I had found the ideal product - oil free, light weight yet still deeply hydrating but unfortunately I cannot get past the revolting smell. Bought as part of the balancer bundle and it's such a shame because the other products are so good. Please fix the scent and I would gladly buy again!
