    Smell is good. That's the only plus point. it didn't hydrate well in air-conditioned environment. Worse point: do not control oil and shine. Face was shining so bright after 2 hrs. Waste of $$....

    Didn't help control any oil and shine. Was moisterising enough for my combination skin.

    don't like that you have to dig your fingers into the cream. it's moisturising for my combo/oily skin. too bad it's got not SPF! however i am using my 2nd tub because it does help with the oil...

    smells nice and fresh, does not control shine, makes my skin feel tight and weird. Not even moisturizing enough for my forehead. Won't buy again. Dropped the jar once, and 3/4 just fell out and...

    Disappointing. I like most of body shop's products.. It's supposed to control oil output. but nah, don't depend on it. My face shines as usual. I was using the seaweed cleanser along with this at...

    It's supposed to mattify oily skin, but instead, it makes my skin looks shiny and plasticy. It leaves a glossy film over my skin. It says "Day Cream" but no SPF. What's that about?

    This is not an effective shine control moisturizer. As an ordinary moisturizer though, its a-ok.

    First time using it - liked it. After a while, it wasn't so agreeable to my skin. Although it was non-greasy and felt good on oily skin, it didn't hydrate well in air-conditioned environment. Not...

    I agree with everything fundercat55 wrote. Just the tiniest bit gave my face a shiny film (hmmm - isn't that what it's NOT suppose to do). My face looked more oilier than before. I also had a...
