I love the Emerginc product line! After having a facial and estetician consultation at the Qua spa in Vegas, I was given some generous samples of the Emerginc products, as well as them using some of the products on me at the end of the facial. All I can say is that I'm in love! I'm pregnant product junkie, and before my pregnancy, I had a drawer full of products that I could use for my oily, acne-prone skin. However, when I got pregnant, I found it very hard to find products that would suit my skin without being harmful for my baby.

This stuff works awesome! I use it over my 20% Vitamin C Serum at night, and wake up to clear, glowy skin. It is pricey, but the I think it's worth it! The cream goes on smoothly, and a little goes a long way. A jar lasts me about two months. I don't think it would work as well by itself, but is perfect when paired with the serum.

UPDATE: no longer using this as I'm boycotting all things emerginC for the changes they've made to their products, making them much less effective and mostlly unusable.
ORIGINALMy esthetician gave me a generous sample of this and insisted I use it ALL religiously or risk banishment from her establishment. I was resistant because my skin is mostly oily and this is touted to be for dry skin and has vegetable oil in it which scared the hell outta me, but she scares me more so I agreed. Well, as usual she was right (don't tell her). I've ordered another jar and cannot be without this stuff now so I guess that makes this HG for me. It's more than just a moisturizer. It's acts as a foundation primer for me. It makes my Tinted sunscreen (also by emerginC) slide over my skin like glass and my usually drive-a-truck-thru pores appear much smaller. I don't know if it's this stuff or the TS or what, but the combo is just working so well for me I'm not willing to give up either one to find out. Scent is extremely mild but sort of floral. Texture is very light and soft. I put this on after using the apple cider vinegar toner and glycolic acid gel, then let it soak in for a couple of minutes. The difference in my face after that soaking in period is noticable. Much smoother and even, allowing me to use only a small amount of the tinted sunscreen to finish off with. The jar is wasteful...rather large and hard to pack, but at least it's plastic with a screw top. I just transfer some to the tiny sample jar I got and take that with me. Its kinda pricey, about $70, but I find it on sale all the time searching the internet. It only takes a small amount so 1 1.7 oz jar should last me about 4 months. My skin has never looked better. This is a keeper.
