I use Caudalie face oils and love them but this one was not a keeper, it is does-not-matter-if-you-put-it-on kind of a cream, rubbish I mean! It didn't moisturize, didn't even smell wonderful like most of the Caudalie products, it also made my skin kind of rough after I put it on, I was looking for a cream that was predominantly natural without parabens and C20 seemed like it only it was not even a mediocre product.

Although this product is slightly pricey at $40 a tube, it does wonders for my winter dry skin. I have normal to slightly dry skin that rarely breaks out but in the past few winters of using just Oil of Olay, my skin would break into dry patches on my cheek. No matter how much moisturiser or shea butter I'd put on the area during the day or at night, they just wouldn't go away. This was until I found C20. This product smells heavenly and cures my dry patches. For those that have oilier skin though, I thought this product does leave some shine on the face - more so than other products.

A slightly heavier moisturiser with a beautiful botanical scent, C20 is a good night cream for those with slightly dry skin. It soaks into my skin qutie well overnight and leaves it hydrated, with only a tiny bit of shine. Probably more of a winter moisturiser than a summer moisturiser if, like me, you live in the tropics. Recommended!

Again another Caudalie product I like. This one has apparently been formulated so now it's paraben-free. It hydrates well enough without any tackiness. No breakouts (this is so important) and is a pretty good moisturiser in a nice hygienic tube packaging. The anti-oxidant goodness is a bonus. I use this at night although I have a sneaky feeling this won't be enough for dead cold winters.

Yuck. I hated this cream. It's not mositurizing enough. And it's got a perfume smell. It irritates my skin. Overall, I'm not happy with the products in this line.

I had high hopes for this lotion for a winter moisturizer. I had told the SA that I normally use Murad Skin Perfecting Lotion but was looking for something more moisturizing for the winter and she recommended this. My skin was even flakier with this moisturizer and felt tight all the time. At first I thought it was just the winter dryness but when I stopped using this and went back to Murad, my skin went back to normal. I won't be repurchasing this.

I have extremely sensitive skin with a lot of hormonal acne right now. I love the packaging, the smell everything but like other posters I did get flaky patches. It did not break me out or give me an allergic reaction which is a huge plus because almost everything gives me small red bumps on my face. I may come back to this in the summer time but its not a product for the northeast winter.

This worked pretty well on my combo skin. It absorbed nicely and didn't cause me to break out. I also liked the light fragrance.

I got it in Paris, so the price was OK. However, It doesn't do much for my dry skin, just gives me dry patches. Maybe it is just my skin.

I have normal to dry and quite sensitive skin that gets a little bit oily on the nose in the summer and this moisturizer is just great for me, not too light and not too heavy. I sometimes use it around my eye area too and I have no problems at all. I will probably go back to Vinopulp cream c80(my other HG)in the winter months, but this is great for the rest of the year and I will keep repurchasing(I am on my third tube now). I also like the packaging, a 40ml tube with a pump, very good for travelling and to keep the product fresh.

My second bottle. I really like the texture and smell of this moisturiser. I used the first bottle during last winter, and it provided me with enough moisture for the winter. I don't use it consistently right now because it is a little bit heavy for summer. I will definitely use it again sometimes in the winter.

This is a good product if you have combo skin or for summer time. I tried it in winter and wasn't enough. However, I devised a plan for treating my combo skin in dry weather. I use the C20 all over my face, then I layer the moisturizing mask over it only on the dry cheek area and don't rinse off. Works wonders. I can't comment on whether it improves skin or not as I was going through some difficult times with my rosacea, however it didn't exacerbate the problems. I would use this line again if I could afford it.

Got several free samples of this one. It's frankly not worth the money for my dry skin. I find the texture too light for in-depth moisturizing (maybe a good summer moisturiser). I am quite dissapointed and much prefer the likes of Nuxe products, which have a really high concentration of essential oils and actives. Nice fresh smell, but nothing exceptional.

Now, my fave moisturizer. Gorgeous scent, matte texture, antioxidants galore, this works well under make-up. Unfortunately, no sunscreen(minus a lippie) but aside from that, perfect.

This is an amazing, amazing moisturizer. I have extremely delicate, easily irritated, breakout-prone skin, and this stuff actually works. It is completely matte, but my skin feels moisturized and smooth. NO BREAKOUTS. My only regret is that it's very expensive, and I hate that it is only available in such small tubes - however, this probably keeps it more sterile than larger tubes would. Anyway, the squeeze mechanism thingy really gets the maximum out of the tube.

Oh Caudalie C20 moisturizer, how much do I love thee? Let me count the ways!

1) You don't irritate my poor eye skin which gets irritated by most products even when I apply them just to my forehead or chin
2) You go on completely matte, so my (thick) foundation has no trouble going on top of you
3) I only need to use the tiniest bit of you (though it took me a few attempts to figure this out)
4) You come in packaging that makes my germaphobic side rejoice
5) You feel lovely going on, and do exactly what I'd like you to do in terms of moisturizing

The texture of my skin definitely seems improved to me after using this for a few weeks. As with the eye contour cream, the key here was realizing just how far a little of this goes. The first few times, when I put on as much of this as I would with my previous moisturizer, I was pretty miffed, and felt slimey. Cut the amount used to a quarter of that, though, and my skin feels positively silky :)
If this stuff actually does help protect against aging, I think I've found an HG in it.

Smell is too strong and doesn't feel moisturising enough. Very average compared with millions of other products.

I'm almost finish my first tube. At first I don't like it a lot because of its heavily scent. After using it for two weeks, I started to like it. It makes my skin soft and glow. I havn't seen its effect on my pore yet. It's also very light but doesn't give matte effect on the skin. I usually don't wear foundation so I have to put powder on top to reduce the shine.

I love this!! After just one application at night, my face felt so soft the next morning. I have used it just a few times, but already know this is HG status- my dehydration lines are completely gone (I don't have fine lines or wrinkles yet) and my face feels incredibly soft. The packaging is hygienic and so far, no irritation on my usually sensitive face. I use this at night, about 1/2 hr after applying my RetinA micro. I will definitely repurchase this again and again!
