This moisturizer does none on the 10 things listed on it packaging for me. i think I must be allergic to something in it because all it did was suck the life out of my skin making it look dry and wrinkled and feeling very tight

I've repurchased this product several times now. Sometimes I do notice the "little balls" other reviewers mention, but I figure I used too much those days.
Anyway, what sold me on this is I had an odd patch of skin on the side of my nose. Sort of like a weird blemish that never went away. The Bliss Youth got rid of this within a week--no kidding. So that was pretty amazing.
Yes it is far too expensive--though there are many even more pricey anti-aging moisturizers out there. (Creme de la Mer, anyone?) But you can get really good deals on it from time to time on eBay. I have yet to pay full price for a brand new jar or tube. (For germaphobes--it DOES come in a huge, 8 oz. tube--"spa size not for retail" and these show up now and then on eBay. They are almost always a great bargain.)

This works for me. No beads forming or greasiness at all.
I have a t-zone that's oily BUT strangely dry on my nose area. The area under my eyes are showing dehydration lines as well. This cream works by giving me the surge of moisture while balancing out the dry/oily parts on my face.
Am very happy with it and will definitely be a repeat customer.

Really disappointed. I bought this cream after reading alot of positive reviews on the Sephora website (big mistake). While I didn't have any allergic reactions to the cream, I found it to be just like a standard drug store quality moisturizer. I didn't find it was a good enough daytime cream for our harsh, dry winters and when I applied it at night, I didn't wake up with soft, dewy skin. SO not worth the $80 I paid. Save your money and pass on this one.

This is a lot more like a serum than a moisturizer or night cream. For dry skin, wear a small amount under an SPF during the day (if you do SPFs) and at night use a thin layer under night cream. If your skin is combo like mine, a dab at night should be plenty. The smell is citrusy and fresh so I have no objections about that. I haven't noticed any greasiness, I use a dab the size of a lima bean. However..based on the promises this stuff makes, I probably wouldn't buy it again. I got it in my sephora VIB bag and it doesn't add that extra softness a lot of serums do. Once I use up my sephora samples I'm going back to my Soap and Glory night creme for winter.

This product did not deliver. It left my skin feeling greasy. Despite leaving my skin greasy, it still looked dehydrated. I could not wear it under make up because it accentuated my pores. I did not see any improvement in my skin.

I'm 32 and decided it was time to invest in anti-aging moisturizer. In my teens I tanned daily over a close to one year period so I've always thought I'd invest in my skin to try and counter the damage I did in my youth. I did try anti-aging products in my 20's but found that they were too rich for my combo skin. I'd break out or dry out. So i gave up. Now I decided was time to try again. What I suppose I didn't conciously realize about the aging market is that there are anti-aging and then reverse the effects products. I wanted anti aging as I have small laugh lines around my eyes that are barely noticable. I found it very hard to find antiaging products within my set budget (under $100). I didn't want to buy more than 1 product, partly due to cost and also due to plain laziness. I'm not one to spend loads of time applying, wiping, patting, etc etc... I just wanted to wash, maybe tone and moisturize. I like this product because it had everything in one jar (ugh, jar!). Reading the ingredients it has every anti aging supplement I could think of. Also, I realized I'm a sucker for Bliss marketing. The names of the products and colors attract me. I bought this moisturizer on Saturday, today is Monday. So keep that in mind. I washed my face and put it on Saturday night, I woke up Sunday morning with a huge volcanic, painful cystic pimple on my chin and and small but ugly and mean zit on my EYELID. The eyelid zit did go away over the course of the day. I did panick about the volcano on my chin and looked up the best toners to clear, I settled for good old hydrogen peroxide (which reviews are amazing for BTW) As of Monday morning I have no new zits or volcanoes and I'm hoping the HP counters the effects of the cysts this cream causes, I'd rather have wrinkles than painful massive cysts on my face. Unless i am given a fresh prepackaged sample I rarely ask for a sample first. So that's why i bought this rather than sampled first. I hate it when I'm at Sephora and they take a sample out of the counter TRY ME. It's gross, especially with containers like this one without a pump. I did buy a mini spatula for make up which i sanitize each time I dip into the container. Perhaps I'm a freak but after watching shows like "How Clean Is Your HOuse" and seeing the lab samples come back from makeup and creams I became a germaphobe in the washroom. I am going to give this stuff one or two more weeks, if I get even one more zit in that time i'm returning it. I suppose I'll return it if I don't fall in love with it. It is expensive, but i don't need a lot to cover my face and I think it would last a long time. As for the "pilling" I haven't had that problem, but I find a very small amount works and if you're used to slathering on moisturizer I think this stuff could "pill" as it is more like a gel than a creme. I do like how it makes my face look after washing and applying, it looks fresher and a bit radiant. The color doesn't bother me, and as for the smell I thought it seemed more like the cupcake batter than the clinical smell some people found. I didn't find it overpowering either. If i end up keeping this stuff I'm not sure i'd buy it again, I will have to see some pretty amazing long term changes and long lasting radiance to my skin. To be honest after spending $80 on it i might cave and go by La Mer which yes is insanely more expensive but has much better reviews than this stuff and it has been around forever without losing favor. Really I think Bliss should attach a warning label on the jar about the cystic acne.

I didn't expect to like this because of the bad reviews but i really did like it. i'm only 20 so i guess this isn't really for my age category but this made my skin look really glowy, smooth and bright. i don't know which of the hundred ingredients did this BUT i'm kind of suspecting the retinol? this is my first time ever using a product with retinol in it. it kinda makes me want to try other retinol products. i heard retinol can make your skin look really smooth and nice. and my skin did look nice while using this. but i've heard retinol thins out your skin and is best left to mature skin. but then i've read about other girls who've been using retinol since they were 18 and have great skin so i'm really confuzzled.
NEWHO i really liked this cream. great for dry skin. it kind of stung when i first used it but now it doesn't. i would definitely repurchase if i could come to a conclusion that retinol isn't harming my young skin..

I'm sure this product works great on people who don't have acne prone skin. It creates comedone cyst like zyts that would not go away for months!

Lately Bliss has had the "Youth Trio" that you can get this, the eye cream, and the serum for $99, and I had a 15% off and free ship coupon so it was a steal comparatively.
In the winter my skin gets SO dry and literally just flakes, especially my forehead. I've tried numerous things, from my previously-HG Dermologica to Clinique to DS stuff and nothing was helping. So I had a sample of this, cringing at the price, used it up and ordered more.
The downfalls for me are 1) cost, 2) just does not moisturize enough, 3) it does sting a little, but it doesn't seem to irritate beyond that (the eye cream is another story - cushy heavenly goodness!), and 4) the packaging sucks. It should come in a tube, or a pump like the serum.
I'm 31, and the combination of the 3 did seem to help a little with the flaking. I did break out about 2 weeks in but it went away. I really think exfoliation is a must with this - it just has so much stuff in it.
For those who are having problems with pilling - try using a little less. A little goes a long way. I have super-dry skin and used it very, very sparingly and have no problems with pilling.
And seriously, try the eye cream. It really rocks.

This is my all time favorite moisturizer. It looks and smells like cake batter and works wonders on my dry skin making it soft and smooth. I like trying new creams but I ALWAYS go back to this one. It just works so well.

My FAVORITE moisturizer. It smells soooo good. Like cupcake batter in my opinion. It exfoliates, so I dont have to scrub my face once a week. Smoothed away my dry patches on my skin, and diminished the bags under my eyes. My skin looks more radiant and healthy than it has in years. Love love love it!

Ugh!!! Pure hype and no results.
Have been using for about a month and see no difference before I started using it.
I don't expect miracles but I did hope to see some minor improvement.
I wish I had read more reviews before I wasted $79.00.
Don't waste your $$$ ladies!!

I love the scent of this product -- light citrus. I didn't really notice any anti-aging results. I have oily skin, so this product can be a bit too heavy for it, however, I use it during the winter months, at night when I've dried out my skin with astringent. It's not greasy, it's just rich.

Unlike other reviewers, I did not mind the smell or color of TYAWKI. When I first put this on, my skin had a really nice glow. Disappeared after 5 minutes, and did not make me look any more "youthful" even after going through 2 jars. I even tried using this with the TYAWKI serum, it made no difference at all. What a waste of money I will never get back.

OK so I"m not commenting on the positive/ negative effects of this cream. I couldn't get that far. I got a sample and used it for the first, and last time today. FIrst of all the color, at least to me, is unpleasant. It reminds me of creams that are past the expiration date- just an odd off-yellow color. But thats not the real problem, just an annoyance. Second, the smell is awful, super chemical. Third, the 'tingling' feels more like pinching or something. Imagine how really, ridiculously minty toothpaste feels in your mouth all over your face. And finally it feels awful on. It took forever to sink in, my skin just felt sticky for way too long. So maybe it does work, but with the experience of using it being so awful who cares?

I'm glad I got a sample of this, because after application I too noticed those tiny little "balls" forming on my skin. Perhaps I got an old sample? But whatever it was, I washed my face again and applied it once more... and it was still "pilling" on my face! Gross!!! How on earth will this moisturize my face if it won't even absorb onto it? Everytime I rub my face to get a sense of its smoothness, tiny yellow balls slough off it. Please do not buy this product.

I just got this at bluemercury last week and I love it! It instantly lightening my dark circles and left my skin smooth and soft. I really like the consistency and am noticing that the fine lines under my eyes are less visible.
