Let me start by saying I thought this was my holy grail for a long time. I don’t think this product caused any breakouts for me, but I don’t think it helped my skin nearly as much as I thought it did.

For one, this cream is both thick and drying. I’m not sure how that’s possible, but I always felt like my skin was never sufficiently hydrated after using this product, especially after a few Show more
