This moisturizer is okay. It is hydrating enough as a morning moisturizer in the spring/fall, but I would not reach for this in the winter time. It sometimes does create a white cast as you are applying it to your face -- it will require some additional tapping/rubbing into skin.
Edit: I also just saw this as a dupe for the Glow Recipe Cloudberry Moisture Cream which I’ve come to love, and I would in no way consider the feel or results of the Glow Recipe to be similar to this moisturizer.

Unfortunately this product is not for my skin, the product itself feels lovely and leaves the skin feeling nice however I break out way more when using this as my moisturiser. I’m unlucky to have skin that breaks out easily so I have stopped using this product.
irritated my under eye area and left my skin dull
