    I had high hopes for this product. It has a creamy gel consistency (somewhat like Clinique Moisture Surge) and goes on very light. It does a good job of moisturizing dry, flaky skin. However, it...

    I have combination skin (I break out on my t-zone and have dry cheeks) and this product is advertised for combination skin - but it is definitely not moisturizing enough for me. This is probably...

    I am a skincare junkie. This is one product that I would always come back to when my face is out of control!! It doesn't exactly moisturize very strongly, but it does just enough for my combination...

    I cannot use this on my upper eyelids, as something in the product makes my eyes sting. However, when used elsewhere on my face, moisturizes well and is very lightweight. I was looking for...

    If you have oily skin and need a light weight moisturizer, try this! This is gentle and lightweight and IMO, it one of the lightest moisturizers on the market. I used this for years when my skin...

    I really like this moisturizer. It feels light, but is perfect for year-round use even in my cold climate. The texture is half-lotion, half-gel and it absorbs instantly. I can put makeup on...

    This is my HG moisturiser. It's kind of phenomenal for the price--the texture is almost more like a serum or a primer, and the ingredient profile is solid. It also has a unique effect on my skin,...

    Nice mositurizer! It's a nice gel, and when you put it on it disappears and your skin is so smooth. One of my favorite mositurizers!

    I have had this lotion for about 2 months, I don't think I would call it an HG, just lack of something I like better. When my skin is very dry, I use something else, as this is very light. I don't...

    I feel like this is a good, solid moisturizer. Nothing incredible, but it doesn't break me out and helps with dry patches. A good fall back moisturizer to keep around. And reasonably priced, which...
