This is a nice, simple moisturizer. It claims to work overnight to give you beautiful skin but I'm only giving it a four because I used it for about 6 months and did not notice a difference in my skin. The nice things are that it kept my skin moist without causing breakout or irritation and it smells lovely. I'm now trying Yonka's Frutelia (with AHA), per my aesthetician, to get more pronounced results.

I have normal/oily skin, minor monthly hormonal breakout.

Switched to something that will do more for my skin. If you just need some basic moisturizer, this is great. Fantastic smell. Lotion works for me in summer, cream in winter. Hate the packaging on both. Lotion comes in a bottle with no stopper and you have to pour it out. When the product runs low you have to balance it on its little top or spend a lot of time shaking. I don't like having to dip my fingers in the cream...seems unhygenic.

I love the scent! It's a wonderful warm amber, vanilla almond-y fragrance. Although, once on your face it can be a little strong and cloying. I bought the lotion for normal/oily and it's really nice. I've been looking for a no frills night cream and this one has a creamy, almost gel-like consistency. It's less runny than their day lotion, Happily Every After. No breakouts so far and no other unusual side effects like drying or peeling. Seems to do the job. They need to work on their packaging. The screw top plastic bottle is cute but not sanitary and irritating to pour. I wish the scent came in one of their body lotions--I would buy it just for the fragrance.

I have very dry skin and thought this would be a great choice based on smell and texture...it actually made my skin feel even drier in the morning. I now layer it with Oil of Olay night cream and that seems to do the trick. I think this is a great option if you have more normal than dry skin and it does smell great. I just think that I can do better for cheaper

Great smell -- like vanilla -- good enough to eat. My very acne-prone, sensitive combo skin has not had any problems with this and I normally react to anything with plants in them. Hated Origins. Also, the price is great for such a quality product -- $17 (Kohl's). I originally bought the lotion but it was way too thin with colder weather coming. Exchanged it for the cream and I'm much happier! Awesome product!!

This is so decadent, I can't believe the price-point. It smells so good. It's a warm, soothing vanilla; very apropos for a night-time moisturizer. It feels smooth and creamy going on, and is very emollient without being greasy or clogging pores. I use this before bed, and the 'Happily Ever After' in the morning. So far, beautiful results with a minimum of fuss. Very pleasurable to use, and a nice break on the wallet. I wish this line was sold in department stores (nothing again Kohl's - it just limits its' availability). I'm impressed.
