I hate jar packaging!! I had seen this in Kohl's several times and finally decided to try it. I used my regular cleanser, Cerave Hydrating, and then just this. I used it for a couple of days and while no immediate reaction, my cheeks actually seemed to get a little pinker oddly enough. There are tons of ingredients in this so there's not telling which one(s) was the culprit. It's going back.

I've been using this product for about 3 months now and am quite pleased with it. It goes on soft and smooth almost like a light creamy mousse. It leaves my skin hydrated but not greasy and does a good job of minimizing the redness around my cheeks. While the jar packaging might be objectionable to some, I find that it won't deter me from repurchasing. I love the way my skin feels when I wear it!

I started using this product three days ago, so this review is a little premature. I began using it as my main rosacea treatment, as I am now TTC and metrocream is not safe during pregnancy nor does Finacea work for me. In any case, so far, I must say it has done a nice job of eliminating any redness/stinging. It is completely non-irritating and even a little soothing. It also is not greasy at all and seems appropriate for those with normal to oily or combo skin as well as drier-skinned individuals. The latter would simply have to use an additional moisturizer for dryness as needed. Good stuff so far! I will update my review if there are any changes.

I only had to use this once to decide if I liked it...verdict - nope. I have extremely sensitive skin and this moisturizer instantly made my cheeks a bit ruddy followed by tiny irritation bumps all over including my forehead, no burning sensation though. Although this formulation did not agree with me, it may not be a bad thing for most people. Remarkably, I might keep the moisturizer because it feels so very nice to use on my chapped hands--no irritation & non-greasy, unlike other lotions/creams I've tried for my hands; won't buy again though. It is quite expensive for what you are getting and some people may not like the jar concept. It is fragrance-free & has a thick creamy consistency which does somewhat penetrate my skin, but I felt that it leaves a siliconey feel on top of the skin--kind of like a protective barrier. So if you are interested in trying this, get it at Kohl's since it can be returned if it doesn't meet your expectations.
