Before switching to this product, my skin had a sandpapery texture. I was using the entire line of Clinique (for combination dry to dry) and my skin was worsening everyday. I tried the sample...

I'm totally on the fence about this product; in the end, I don't think I'd buy it again because of relative cost. The formula was fine, hydrating without feeling oily, and absorbed into the skin...

Surprised to see the low reviews. Moving to a dry, semi-arid desert climate, a couple years ago I found my normal moisturizer wasn't enough. I tried Cetaphil (horrible under foundation), Clairins...

The only moisturizer I use. Most moisturizers break me out this doesn't. I'm so glad the SA recommended this. I just wish it came in a tube and was a little less expensive.

This is by far the best moisturizer I have ever used! It is super thick and creamy and goes on like silk. I find that I only need a little bit so it does tend to last me quite a while. The original...
