My skin can get pretty dehydrated, so a good moisturizer is definitely needed. But because I also had combi/sensitive skin, I was really worried this might break me out.
Thankfully it worked great. No breakouts from it and it is a fairly good moisturizer (sometimes I still flake but that is due to prolonged aircon/sun).
It is quite thick and creamy, so a small amount goes a long way. Too much leaves an oily sheen on your face. I usually use this in the morning before work and the spf is a lifesaver since I am too lazy for sunblock.
There is no other word than PERFECTION!
Perfect for dry skin, this product is all about serious moisture. It has a lovely super-rich texture. I actually thought it would be too rich for my skin and also thought this was for mature skin. Whilst, i still find it a bit rich during the day under makeup; i actually use this at night and it is like a miracle cream for me. It helps to clear my breakouts (don't know how, but it does!). Smooths complexion and gets rid of flaky skin that NO OTHER moisturiser has really been able to do. Yes, it is expensive, but soooooo worth it. I tried the night version without SPF and personally, I don't like it as much. I know it's weird to use the SPF at night - but it works for me.
My mum is also hooked on this product and now have got my girlfriends on to it too...

This was on a special sale at a Dutch drugstore (Kruidvat) for a mere €12. I bought three jars, figuring that if I didn't like it I could always give it to my mum. But, lucky for me, I love it! I have incredible soft skin since I started using this a week ago. No break-outs so far. Will keep updating :).
UPDATE: I'm still using this and I'm still very happy with it!
Pleasantly surprised by this product! I received it in a gift package and figured it might be too rich for my dry, sensitive skin but it worked really well - moisturized nicely through the winter months with no breakouts, and absorbed fairly quickly so I could put my makeup on.
This is a moisturizer for serious moisture! My dry parched winter skin just drinks it in. Leaves my skin feeling soothed,moist and 'plump' ...just as the name suggests. Most moisturizer advertised for dry skin just doesn't even come close to this hydrating wonder. I just love it. Makeup goes in perfectly after about 5-10 minutes ,as the product has settled into my skin by then. It is thick and lush,smells lovely and does its job! Have and will continue to repurchase,as it is delicious all round. Fat plump skin? Yes please! :-)

Isn't the name getting ridiculously long, no plump, no lift, no firm. Yes, greasball, I chose this over the lotion b/c of my dry dry skin. Since it is also a sunscreen, I used about 1/3 teaspoonful, it is just like putting Pond's Cold Cream on the skin, it takes a long time to be absorbed (dried) and even so, it leaves a shiny coating on, which accentuated lines & pores. A dusting of loose powder or powder foundation will counteract but defeat the purpose of the creamy moisturizing property. If I remembered it correctly, this product is over Cad $50.
Smear some on the back of your hand at the EA counter before buying.
