The only reason I would give this a 3 star rating right now is because my skin is weird, In the summer time, my skin becomes oily, and in the winter, it becomes super dry.


Sometimes my skin is also dry in the summer time and later on in the day it would become oily. I hate it.


I bought this moisturizer in the summer time and I used it, feels like I threw grease on my face. Yuck.


I ended up returning it. Will purchase in the winter time.

This has been the best moisturizer I have used. Very moisturizing. The best part is the vitamin E is fading my acne scars and gives me the most phenomenal GLOW. I've used this for over a month now and really nothing compares. No breakouts. Just smoother more even toned skin after every application. My favorite thing to do is put on MB healing cream, which is even MORE amazing, let the healing cream dry and put this moisturizer on after.

Before I started using this every morning I used to have really dry and flaky skin. Especially in the winter, since it gets quite cold in Sweden. After starting using Mario’s products my skin started to act a lot better and I would even say that my skin is normal, but that’s as long as I moisturize properly after cleaning my face. Even though I’m quite breakout prone I haven’t experienced any extra breakouts using this it also gives me a slight glow. The packaging isn’t the most fancy looking one I’ve seen, but it does it job well and it’s hygienic and easy to use. The SPF is also a huge plus!

I have been using Mario Badescu moisturizers and creams for years. They are reasonably priced and better than ALOT of the high end creams-moisturizers I have purchased in the past. This particular moisturizer is a nice relatively thick one for dry skin with a great spf. Makeup glides on over it and still looks great at the end of the day (that doesn't happen too much with other moisturizers). If you wear the moisturizer alone your skin has a great glow and protection. What more can you want! I have very dry skin though. If you're like me give it a try. They give out very generous samples from their NYC store. Just call the 800 #., and ask for their catalogue too. I have purchased this product a half a dozen times already, and it lasts a long time too!

I love the fact that this moisturizer has SPF-20. I'm such a loyal fan of Mario Badescu and the fact that they're good about putting SPF in a lot of their moisturizers is fantastic. This moisturizer is only for someone with really dry skin. I can only use this moisturizer in the winter and even then I can't use it everyday. I have normal to dry skin in the wintertime and so I use this moisturizer whenever I feel like my skin is getting just too dry. My foundation goes on nicely over this moisturizer. Once again, another fabulous Mario Badescu product.

Bought this moisturizer as i was already loyal to the mario badescu range and wanted an SPF moisturizer and this was one of the few with an SPF . it also has lots of antioxidants and other things which are supposed to help prevent aging. i found it a little greasy at first but absorbs quickly and my foundation sits well on it, which i have found other moisturizers havent done. definately will use this forever!
