I got a deluxe sample of this during the VIB 20% off sale. The gel cream texture feels nice on the skin when applied. HOWEVER, later it balls up all around my nose area and clogs my pores. Not...

I have combination skin and this is perfect for my skin. I apply it religiously day and night after washing my face. It's my HG MOISTURIZER

I find that this moisturizer is enough to tame the dry skin I get in the winter, but not cause my oily skin to get worse. I only use it at night, unless I need it as a spot treatment for dry skin...

Hope in a jar may not smell to good but I like how it moisterizes my skin. Its not that refreshing as others but it does moisterise.

Got this as a deluxe sample in a free intro kit. Smells like plastic, and doesn't do a good job of moisturising. Balls up and develops a texture similar to its plasticky smell when it dries up in...

I have got a sensitive skin and according to the sales lady this cream was suitable for the sensitive skin. I'm glad that I asked for a sample because it doesn't work at all for my skin. The...

I had such high hopes for this product. I decided to get a sample of this product before buying and I am so glad that I did. First of all, this moisturizer stinks to high heaven. It's been on my...

This is the perfect example of what I would call a marketing gimmick. I only had to glance at the formula(ingredient list) and see how void it is of actual skin changing ingredients. Water,...

Had a large sample from Sephora. I could've used it for several nights. The sample was included in my last order. I'm VIB Rouge so I order often. As soon as I applied this, I had to wash it...

The smell, oh the smell... What is that?! It smells like some clinical melted plastic that lingers for hours. I'm not sure if others around me can smell it but I can smell my face the whole morning...

My skin is naturally very dry. I LOVE this stuff. It has a mild pleasant scent (scents don't bother me) and I find it so moisturizing. I can't get enough, I literally apply it to my face morning...

I am older and this doesn't work for me. My skin is not particularly sensitive but it irritates me and doesn't seem to give to either clearer skin tone or moisture.
