This clogs my pores! The texture is pretty rich so it didn't surprise me that it broke me out. I can never use this as day moisturizer because it's too thick for that. I do find a good use for it though; I use it every after getting chemical peeling done. It really soothes the skin and helps tame the redness. But I won't repurchase for that alone because I was looking for a moisturizer that I can use everyday.

Reviews are really high here, but this moisturizer gave me clogged pores! It broke me out in whiteheads everywhere. I do not recommend this moisturizer for someone with reactive & acne-prone skin.

This is my HG moisturizer. I saw results immediately, made my pores smaller, and my face looks amazing with this. My face feels moisturized all day/night and it doesnt make it oily. I love this!!!

This may just be my permanent night cream. Years of using acne creams, and current use of Retin-A have seriously dehydrated my oily skin. I used this last night, and for the 1st time ever, my face didn't feel so tight (both after putting it on, and after waking up in the morning). And no breakouts (so far!!!, usually 1 night is enough for me to tell whether I will break out or not from a cream). I have used this before for the day, under makeup, and it left my face extremely greasy and shiny....so I would recommend it only at night.

All the moisturizers i've tried before were runny in consistency but never really moisturized long enough without drying my skin. This moisturizer was nice and thick and rubbed in well.
I didn't get the feeling that it was sinking in so i used a cheap runny moisturizer first and finished off with this one. Sprayed on some marcelle toner to finish off. Excellent stuff. Really did calm redness after day one! Expensive for the small amount though. Will update.
UPDATE: ok this is HG. no problems and skin is definitely smoothing out. your skin will feel a lasting hydration throughout the day but jut keep some oil sheets with you as it can make it slightly oily later on the day which is to be expected i guess.

While reviewing this product, I also have a question for those who use this with succes... My experiences so far are mixed. I bought this based on the great reviews on here, to comfort the very dry areas on my face, which are my chin and forehead. These used to be the oily spots, where I frequently broke out. Oily turned dry, but the breaking out never totally disappeared. So, I wanted something to totally moisturize without causing problems. For my forehead, that worked wonderfully! I have baby-soft, smooth skin there now! This stuff seems to moisturize like nothing else!! For my chin...things went different, because there I did broke out a bit. Also, the cream didn't seem to sink in and left a shiny mess for days... I wonder what I might be doing wrong here? Did I use too much? Do I have to treat this as a night-cream (I used it over the day)? And do you really use this every day?
Will be experimenting further...

This moisturiser has NO silicone, wow. My skin was somewhat irritated from using the treatment for liver spots by my dermatologist. I used this product on top of a "firming" serum (which is actually a film-forming cross-polymer) and no pilling afterwards. I then picked up the box from the garbage & checked, I could not find any ingredients with the suffix of -cone. In this day & age, its an exciting discovery, silicone has its place in make-up, but not in skincare. It is not as moisturising as I hope since my cheeks are very dry. I am going to use this as my main staple day cream from now on.

I bought this product because of the positive MUA reviews for it. But when I got to the store, I was hesitant to buy it because it said "For Youth Problem Skin Undergoing Treatment" - or something like that. I am 41 and not undergoing any treatments. But I bought it anyway (it was on sale for 15% off). First of all the packaging is great. There is really no smell (some creams really smell awful!!!) and the texture is so thick and creamy! I've only used it now for 2 days and I love it! My skin texture has greatly improved, makeup stays on better and my pores actually look smaller! I've tried TONS of stuff that claim to make pores smaller and none of them have ever worked. Great stuff! Will update if anything changes in the weeks to come.

I've found my HG! Just needed to add my rave here. This is so perfect for my skin as it's actually emollient enough to properly sort out my dried-out flaky skin after all my acne treatments. I'm currently using a topical antibiotic, a retinoid, the occasional salicylic acid peel and spot-treating with 10% benzoyl peroxide cream so my skin can get pretty dry! This makes my foundation go on all patchy and awful....and all the previous heavy moisturisers i had tried just made me break out more. This moisturiser soothes and moisturises without causing more spots-perfect!

Picked this up in Central Am. after reading the rave reviews. Got it for $9.00 there. Unfortunatly I live in North America, where it is $20. I was very impressed with this product. It does exactly what it says, soothing repair of the epidermis; espessially after post break-out and microderm abression. This product has been a life saver for my flared up dry/sensitive T-zone skin. I saw a noticable difference over night, and had no breakouts as a result. Yes it is a bit pricey for the amount of product, especailly the amount I use; but who cares as long as it works. I would pay a lot more.

This moisturizer is absolutely breathtaking!
I have very sensitive,extremely dry skin but at the same
time I sometimes, while using rich moisturizers, break out.
This product didn't cause break outs what so ever but it
healed my dry and flaky parts better then any moisturizer
I ever used... It's also cheap in my opinion.
The only thing is that it doesn't last very long but
that is okay... I love it anyway!

I'm surprised that there are not more reviews for this cream. This is my absolute favourite face cream out there. I have combination skin (oily in the T-zone and dry around my mouth and cheeks). This cream doesn't cause breakouts at all and is rich enough for the dry flaky parts of my skin. It is also excellent for soothing redness and irritated skin caused by dryness or other skin products. It makes my skin feel so soft and moist and I wake up in the mornings with glowing skin. Definitely recommend this face cream! It is a little on the pricey side tho for a drug store brand ($20cdn for 40ml!). But I will still continue to buy it.

Absolutely love this line. This moisturizer is wonderful and soothes and did not cause breakouts whatsoever. I like to use this particularly in the winter or when my face is irritated. Great for those on acne treatments.

It`s the third product in this range that works god for me. This moisturizer has a rich consistensy, but it does calm and moisturize my skin, spesially those parts, where it is itchy and flaky. I haven`t got any new blemishes while using this cream. It doesn`t leave my sensitive skin greasy either. A very good product, specially for people whith dry, flaky and itchy skin after anti-acne treatments. I will buy it again (as other products in this range)!
