I disagree with a couple reviewers here: this is more hydrating than other FA-safe moisturizers. My skin was having irritation breakouts and this calmed my skin right away and I wake up glowier and balanced.

it is really simple
the cream is thick, there is no dominant fragrance, once you apply it to your face the cream melts, really smooth and easy to apply. It's a bit sticky at first but after a few minutes after it sinks in and dries, it gives healthy glow to my face.

I've been using this for over 2 months now am and pm, and im not sure if it's this product only or this product in combination with others in my routine, but since adding it to my routine i've noticed a significant decrease in acnes showing up. Keeps my skin moisturized until end of the day without it being overly greasy. Will repurchase.
