I was using Chanel’s Blanc Essentiel day moisturizer prior to this and I wasn’t happy - too light and for a whitening moisturizer – no sun protection! So I don’t mind paying a bit more for this because it moisturizes and it comes with SPF 15. I’ve been using this with the Night Crème and I’ve seen results – hydrated, brighter, evened toned skin and my pigmentation seems to have lightened. Comes in a pump bottle. Strong fragrance that took some getting used to, and not a travel friendly bottle (at least its a pump bottle). Just wish it was alot cheaper and that it didn’t give me that super dewy finish (I prefer matte), otherwise I’m very pleased with this, and would repurchase.
