A beautiful find indeed. I am in love with this product, it is organic, paraben and synthetics free. I was in my local organic store (we only have one) and decided to try some night time natural moisturizers. I used 6 different ones on my inner arm using the testers. I walked around the store for 15 minutes to let the moisturizers set in. Then I glided my finger across my inner arm and was shocked at how smooth and soft one section felt in comparison to the others. It was like trying to compare silk to wool, it was clear which felt the nicest on my skin. Without a second thought I picked up the clear winner to my in-store mini test. Nature's Gate Oh What a Night.
My Skin Type: (adult) acne prone skin. Sensitive (very few products work affectively on my skin), and combination (oily t-zone, normal everywhere else). In the Summer my skin is fine for moisture, but for winter I do tend to get dry and sometimes I get flaky too.
PROS: (1) pleasant packaging, a lovely glass pot that comes with a scoop to get product out of the jar without contaminating it. (2) luxurious velvet feel on the skin. (3) sinks in perfectly without leaving residue, oiliness, or any 'barrier of moisture' over your skin. (4) Got rid of dry patches, even reduced some of my fine lines. It makes my complexion glow and my skin feels unbelievably smooth and soft after use. Furthermore, it even healed acne and any irritation my skin was feeling. The results are real because I don't need to use it every night to maintain them. I use it 3-4 times a week. (4) smells like nuts and flowers, it's pleasant I can't help but picture a spa in the swiss alps when I use this! The scent will fade away too, so don't worry if the smell might be a problem. It smells natural not synthetic.
CONS: absolutely none! This is the first moisturizer I have ever used to have no flaws.
I've used this product for about 6 weeks to date. I am so impressed with it, there is no doubt in my mind the search for the perfect moisturizer has ended for me. It met all my high expectations and then some. This will always be in my bathroom and will be my number one recommendation. I've tried them all, this, without a doubt, is the best skin care has to offer.
To Use: I spritz my skin with organic rose water to prep my skin after washing. Than, I scoop a small, pea size amount from the little glass pot and dap on my forehead, cheeks, and chin. I gently massage in a upward circular motion over my face, and put the excess on my neck. The next day, without fail, I wake up to clearer, softer glowing skin.
Happy Shopping!

Been using this for a week now and love it so far. Light, cool texture, but surprisingly moisturizing. Gives skin a silky feel. Love that it's organic and paraben-free. I like the slightly walnut-y smell, too!

I bought this cream because of the great reviews on this website. I had been using it maybe once a week during the day and was disappointed i did not see any miraculous results. One week on a whim i used it for a few consecutive nights, and i really used a LOT with each application. Not really expecting any changes i woke up one morning, looked in the mirror and was astounded with what i saw! My skin was visibly clearer, smoother, and just looked all around healthier. So i guess you have to use a lot of it, use it at night, and also don't stop using it to see results. But really the results are worth it. Also if you buy it at harmons discount, its only $13, as compared to elsewhere which can be up to $29.
A fantastic night moisturiser that blends into your skin and doesn't leave your skin with any oily residue after you put it on. I have combination skin with flaky areas and this just clears this up and mekes my skin look so smooth and glowing. I've only been using this for a week and I already get so many compliments that my skin looks good. for some reason it makes my skin less oily and really calms your skin. I really like this brand, their shampoos are also great.

I love love love this product.
Pros:
- Feels great on the skin. I'm a huge texture kind of person, so I don't like it when I apply lotion and it's runny, or too oily or, etc. But it's not too oily and not to dry. I love the creaminess and it just goes right into your skin without feeling burdensome
- Smells great (like almost nothing). I hate products with heavy heavy smells, even if they smell like sweet like fruit. This one smells kind of walnutty maybe? But it really smells neutral.
- Relatively cheap. I think I got mine for $20-26, which I think is reasonable given how much I like it, and I think the cream lasts a while
- The packaging is nice. They give you this little scoop so that you can scoop it out of the jar without having to always dip your fingers in.
- It's organic! At least I think it is... Organic or natural - either or, I love it. I am a big organic product person, and this hits a home run!
Cons:
- Honestly.. Can't think of any! I'd buy it again.
Absolutely adore this moisturizer! Great packaging, good price. All- natural. I've been using this line of products for approximately 3 weeks. The results are as good, if not better than, Philosophy!
ver nice and light texture. goes on easily and my skin feels great afterwards.
however, two days into using it, i got four whiteheads on the same morning (which I don't usually get). i'm going to take a break from it and try it again later.
Great moisturizer with an ideal consistency-doesn't irritate my sensitive/acne prone skin, but does provide a lot of moisture. Love it!

This product is wonderful. Over Christmas time I went a little crazy with microdermabrasion and Retinol treatments and my skin FREAKED out like it never has before. It itched and burned me all day long and there were red patches all over it. I had done some serious damage. The pain was so bad that I was trying every cream I could get my hands on to stop the itching and burning... I tried so many organic, natural products to try and soothe my skin and this is the only one that did not cause any burning at all. Every other product- no matter how natural- caused the burning sensation, but not this one. Since my skin has recovered from the overkill of my unnecessary treatments I have continued to use this cream and I love what it does for my skin. It is much less oily during the day and smoother over all. It is pricey, but so are most good face creams. I bought my second jar today and am sure I will stick with this for a while!
