I am crazy about T.LeClerc cosmetics but not very crazy when comes to some of their skincare.
Here is the description of this product:
A veritable moisture bath for anyone needing hydration yet prone to oily or combination type skin.
This light, non-oily fluid helps optimize moisture, mattifies and leaves skin velvety smooth.
Contains mineral powder to help set make-up and keep it from breaking up due to high levels of sebum.
Ingredients: Water(Aqua), Glycereth-26, C12-16 Alcohols, Glycerin, Squalene, Hydrolyzed Lupine Protein, PEG-8, Dimethicone, Mica, Hydrogenated Lecithin, Palmitic Acid, Phenoxyethanol, Behenyl Alcohol, Wheat Germ Oil (Triticum Vulgare), Wheat Germ Extract (Triticum Vulgare), Wheat Germ Insaponifiables (Triticum Vulgare), Hydrolyzed Milk Protein, Inositol, Blue 1 (CI 42090), Trisodium EDTA, Triethanolamine, Fragrance (Parfum), Xanthan Gum, Methylparaben, Caprylil Glycol, Carbomer, Chlorphenesin, Ethylparaben, Butylparaben, Propylparaben, Isobutylparaben, Glucose, Sunflower Seed Oil (Helianthus Annuus), Rosemary Extract (Rosmarinus Officinalis), Red 33 (CI 17200), Carrageenan (Chondrus Crispus), Sodium Polycrylate.
I got a set of generous sample kit after spending piles of gold at the counter. Remind you, in Hong Kong the comapny selling T.LeClerc also selling Swiss Perfection at the same counter. This moisturiser could hydrate skin well, but I've found it uh, kind of unpleasant feeling because of its smell - it smells way too good! Even ten times better than Sisley and I definitely do not like that.
The product itself is in an elegant pump bottle, so it is very hygienic and easy to pump out some. Maybe I am used to some high-end brands, like Swiss Perfection, La Prairie and Sisley. I do not like this one too much. To conclude, however, it is a good product at this price -hydrates well and leaves a protective film on your face. Not bad but I would stick to my dear Sisley and Swiss Perfection!

Update (9th Aug, 2003): I tried it once again (Why not?). Maybe I was biased last time. The smell is quite okay and also it gives me lovely glow. Love it! I'd use this one in summer. Also, it's very mild, no allergy and very pleasant comfortable feeling when I put it on my face. Thumbs up! continued >>
