This is the first product i have tried by this brand. I am always looking for matte moisturizers for my oily skin so i was excited that i recieved this in my beauty subscription box this month. This moisturizer is white in color and has a light gel cream consistency. It doesn't smell like anything which i like and it absorbs fast and leaves a matte finish. You don't need a lot of it to cover your entire face so it will last forever. I like the look of the packaging...its super minimal and simple. My only issue with the product is the tube its in....you have to puncture the seal on it with the back of the cap like you do with creams you get from the doctor and when i did that i guess there was a lot of pressure in the tube because a big glob came out😓 other than ... MoreThis is the first product i have tried by this brand.

I purchased this as an add on in my Spring FabFitFun box because the sound of Matte Balancing Moisturizer really peaked my interest. About my skin- I have combination/oily type, but lately more oily, so I’m trying to find a balance which is tricky with combo skin. I’ll go through spells where I will be dry, oily, or both; nevertheless I still love hydration moisture as I don’t want to cause my skin to strip its natural oils. About this product- it was very effective as far as mattifying the skin yet still giving off a healthy glow, but what amazed me was how well it worked underneath my makeup. I was afraid it would start ‘pearling’ up into little balls as “matte” products would tend to do to me, but this is a moisturizer rather than some silicone matte primer.

I really feel like it helped prevent excess oil from shining through by the end of work days, that’s what really sold me here. I will continue trying this with other products such as makeup skincare to see what routine works best, but so far I love it and have noticed a difference!

Leaves face feeling smooth and soft with a soft glow while mattifying my skin. I was really surprised with how great it worked under my makeup. It controlled my oil well until late afternoon. PROS: - Cruelty Free - Hydrating without leaving me shiny - Lightweight - Gentle. Did not irritate skin - Works well under make up - Helped clear skin - Controlled sebum in T-Zone throughout most of the day - Leaves face feeling soft - Smooths skin CONS: - Not a fan of the packaging, although it is travel friendly, I hate having to roll and push to get the last bit out. - Didn’t control oil all day. By late afternoon nose was oily.

I got this in a Boxycharm a while back. I’ve been using this for a while now and I love it. It’s really helped cut my facial oils down significantly. I wear it on my neck as well, but I do think it’s better suited for the face. My face is super smooth with this moisturizer and feels comfortably matte. I would repurchase.

Holy smokes, I am impressed! This is the second matte moisturizer I’ve tried it has phenomenal oil control. The tube is pretty sizable (over 2oz) and a little bit (pea sized amount) goes a really long way so a tube lasts quite a while. It soaks into your skin within about 3-5 minutes and leaves you feeling matte yet moisturized. This moisturizer is amazing as a base for primer/makeup. I’m also very pleasantly surprised that it does not irritate your skin. It’s as though my oily skin is a thing of the past! The only downside is the fairly high price point. $50+ is kind of steep for a moisturizer, even if it does perform like a dream. A tube does last longer than a bottle of and performs a bit better.

I received this product in my October Boxycharm subscription. I really love how lightweight this moisturizer is. It doesn’t leave me feeling greasy or like there’s any product on my face, which I love. I also really enjoy the scent, it’s very light but is refreshing and sweet. Now I would have rated this product much higher if it weren’t for the fact that my skin sucks up the product and is still left feeling and looking pretty visibly dry. I started applying it, waiting for my skin to absorb it and then applying a second coat hoping that would fix the problem but unfortunately my skin is still pretty dry after a bit. The main dry spots are my forehead and cheeks as shown in the photo I attached. This is after wearing the product a few hours.

I’ve had this in one of n subscriptions for a while but I usually use Peter Thomas cloud cream or Saturday night skin glacier cream which are both gel creams so I was really hesitant on using it because I had used one of the hand creams it was super thick which is nice for your hands but I thought that the face cream would probably be the same…. so I ran out of my regular stuff and didn’t feel like digging through all my boxes to find more so I grabbed this just to put something on my face for the night and I’m so glad I did because it’s super thin which some people don’t like but I love it there’s nothing worse than having a heavy thick cream on your face especially when you have combination skin I was also worried it would be to Matt because I like that do we look ... MoreI’ve had this in one of n subscriptions for a while but I usually use Peter Thomas cloud cream or Saturday night skin glacier cream which are both gel creams so I was really hesitant on using it because I had used one of the hand creams it was super thick which is nice for your hands but I thought that the face cream would probably be the same…. so I ran out of my regular stuff and didn’t feel like digging through all my boxes to find more so I grabbed this just to put something on my face for the night and I’m so glad I did because it’s super thin which some people don’t like but I love it there’s nothing worse than having a heavy thick cream on your face especially when you have combination skin I was also worried it would be to Matt because I like that do we look and it actually looks really nice, like clean, fresh skin. it’s not to flat/matte at all! it’s perfect and there’s no strong smell to it which is huge for me…I like is that my skin is not super shiny like it is with every other cream but it’s not powdery looking either. I’m so glad I have a few bottles because I’m definitely going to be using this from now on. I can already tell that it’s going to last a long time because there’s such a large amount in it and it’s a thin product but it’s rich at the same time so you can use a small amount. So happy I gave this a chance.

Great for combination skin

I have combination skin which as the weather warms up gets worse and I suffer with the odd break out. This moisturiser has a lovely gentle sent and has made a great difference to my skin. My pores are less noticeable and skin isn’t as oily or shiny as normal. The moisturiser is lightweight and blend’s really nicely without the skin feeling heavy. Make up goes on smoothly and lasts much longer than usual. Skin looks radiant and brighter.

Heavily Expired Item - Cream now liquid form

I bought my 1st batch from the dealer itself. Then saw this one on here. Bought it, It is in liquid form, heavily expired. Not a cream anymore. Don't even know if it ever was the real product. When I opened it, it literally dripped out like liquid water. So disappointing. Obviously found somewhere, and sold here.
