General Comments on this product:
After finishing my fifth sample of this I figured it might be time to actually buy a pot
I was kinda shocked by the price, but that was forgotten when smelled the cream. This is a thick, rich cream, and great for a dry skin. It doesn't have SPF in it, so this will be my HG night cream, and on dry-skin days, used as a moisturizer underneath my SPF foundation!

Would you buy this product again? Probably

Got this in the try on pack. The cream has a very nice thick and rich texture. It moisturized well on my dry spots, but that being said, it was horror for my oily spots :| .. I will definitely keep it and use it when I'm having a dry skin flare up, but for my combo normal/oily skin, it's not for every day..

Lovely stuff!
Overall rating - 5
Price - 4
Packaging- 3

This is basic fundamental packaging, but it's what's inside that matters! A light, yet rich and fluffy cream, lightly scented like cucumbers (at least to me) that really does the trick as a night cream. Sinks in well and really moisturizes! I got this as a sample ages ago, and am on my second jar of it now!

My skin is normal/dry and this is great stuff, year round!

General Comments:
I really love this cream. Its light enough for night time and daytime use(just slap on some spf first). I have combo skin but the moisterizer is light enough were I can use it daily on my oily spots. Compared to other equivelents the price is very decent. One jar literally last forever(for me at least).

I use this as a night cream or whenever I'm staying home because it doesn't have any SPF, if it did it would be perfect! I am getting older and my skin is getting really dry, and I find this cream to work great after exfoliating. It really sinks into my skin and I can feel my skin just getting quenched and "drinking" it up so it works for me.

I finally caved in and bought this after getting a sample. I have combination skin that's mostly dry in the winter. I only use this as a night cream since I don't think my makeup would stay on too well if I used this in the day, plus there's no SPF. It is a heavier moisturizer, but the consistancy seems to be whipped so it's not too heavy. My skin feels unbelieveably soft and smooth when I wake up in the morning, I love it! The only downside to this cream for me is the packaging, I wish the jar was a little less wide...it's an odd shape. Overall I really like this moisturizer.

Would you buy this product again? Yes--I have already!!

I love, love, love this cream!! It has a whipped quality to it, and is so moisturizing I only use it as a night cream in the spring/summer. There is virtually no smell to it, but what it does smell like--fresh, clean-- I am addicted to. What is so fabulous about this cream is it's rich texture, but no heaviness/greasy feeling whatsoever. You must try this, even if your skin veers towards slightly oily. Every morning, my skin is so soft..... I could not live without it.

Would you buy this product again? Most likely.

This moisturiser has a deceptively light feeling that belies how 'heavy' it really is - ideal all-over for normal-to-dry skin, but for those with normal-to-oily T-zones, you might want to keep this product for your cheeks and neck only and use it in tandem with a gel-based moisturiser.
