Reviewers praise
  • Sits exceptionally well under makeup and sunscreen without pilling or adding shine
  • Fragrance-free, oil-free, and suitable for sensitive or acne-prone skin
  • Mixes easily with facial oils or other serums to customize hydration
Reviewers push back
  • Insufficient moisture for dry or dehydrated skin when used alone
  • Takes time to absorb and can leave a white layer if over-massaged
  • Requires additional oils or serums at night for adequate hydration on dry skin
I love this moisturizer now and the reason that I love it is because it's a great face moisturizer to mix with facial oils

This moisturizer has become a staple in my skincare routine! This cream is lightweight yet super hydrating. It absorbs quickly without leaving a greasy finish, and my skin feels soft an plump throughout the day. I love how gentle it is, even on sensitive skin, and it layers perfectly under sunscreen or makeup. A simple but very effective moisturizer at an amazing price — definitely worth repurchas Iyna29 · sephora.com
