NOTE: Try this product at your own risk. If it works for me, it does not mean it will work for you too. Everyone has different types of skin. My skin consists of dry - combination - sensitive type of skin.

PROS: My skin was very dry, flaky, and was super itchy when its dry. Thanks to this moisturizer, it helped my dry skin to be soft smooth. It smellls so good too! Whenever I use this at night, the husband always gives me compliment on how he loves the smell of my face. :) It did not break me out so that's a good. When I use this at night, I slather a little bit more and when I wake up in the morning, I notice the difference. It looks like I'm glowing. No need to put a foundation :) It has a very thick consistency so a little goes a long way. A really must have for dry skins out there.

CONS: The price is too much. Compare to my Clinique Dramatically Different Moisturizer, this moisturizer is overly priced. I also don't know how it will work on oily skins since this moisturizer has very thick consistency and can be greasy looking so I don't recommend this using in the morning. It also received only 66% at Makeupalley.com which is a low rating because some claimed that it broke them out and I noticed that those people who claimed that this moisturizer broke them out were the people who has oily skins.

OVERALL: I love this product! It does its job and especially now that its almost winter, I need a good cream that will fight the dryness of my skin, and I find this moisturizer very effective. If you want to try it, I suggest to get a sample 1st at any Sephora counter or Benefit counter before you purchase the full size. That's what I did. I got 3 little jar samples 1st before I decided I want the full size jar.

I hope this review helps you guys and I'm sorry I can't post a picture of me wearing this moisturizer because my PC is still not working. :( I am currently using my brother-in-law's PC. He's kind enough to let me borrow this til my PC gets fixed or whenever I buy a new one. Also I've been wanting to show you guys my haul from Little Tokyo but then again, this PC does not have a card slot so I can't save the photos in this PC. Sucks :( Hope you guys have a good night!
