    Besides being a bit pricey, it does seem to be lasting a long time. You do not need much to cover your whole face. What I like is that this day cream has a light texture, like gel, and so it does...

    It's a bit rough and doesn't do a lot at all. I found it stung my cheeks and left my nose an oil slick. Would never ever repurchase!!

    I discovered this a few months ago and it's now my go-to moisturizer for daytime use. It seemed expensive for its size but I quickly found that a tiny dot goes a long way. I expect the tub will...

    Two words for this product: doesn't work, please don't waste your money or if you are thinking about getting it ask for a sample first and see if it really works for you.
