Most Helpful Positive Review Perfect Moisturizer for Drier Skin I was searching all over for a new moisturizer to replace the ones I've had in rotation for the last few years. I'm in my mid 30's with dry skin and a weird sensitivity to shea butter, so I needed to find something super hydrating without shea butter and preferably without fragrance, which isn't as easy as you think it is. I've had luck with Tarte Skincare before - their Knockout is a holy grail product for me and replaced by beloved Biologique Recherche P50 and their Vitamin C serum is beautiful, so I felt good about giving this a try. Cutting to the chase, I love this. I've been using it for about a month and I already know this will be my moisturizer for a long time. It's super moisturizing but sinks in the skin well, it feels very hydrating, makeup goes beautifully over top, and it makes my skin look and feel plumped up. I love that it comes in an airless pump (I don't know why all moisturizers don't come in this packaging) and that it's unscented. This is a 10/10 product for me, and I'm a but of a skincare nut. Tarte's skincare line isn't talked about a lot but it really is a hidden gem.
If you have oilier skin, this may be too much for you. But if you're normal to try and are looking for a staple moisturizer to really hydrates your skin day and night and goes perfectly under makeup, this is an absolute 10.
Most Helpful Critical Review Does it's job I was really excited to try this because fragrance and alcohol free which I tend to react badly too. Unfortunately, it left my skin really greasy. It does it's job as a moisturizer so I'll use the rest of the product but I don't plan on repurchasing. I can see how this would be beneficial to dry skin types, but for my fellow oily skinned friends: I caution you against this unless you like greasy skin:(
Reviewed by 35 customers Hands down my favorite moisturizer 5
Nay from Chicago, IL
Hands downs the best moisturizer I've ever used! I have super sensitive, dry skin, and this has been the only moisturizing product that has worked so well for me! I use it at night and I feel like my skin is glowing the next morning. I love the way it dispenses because it's very sanitary and easy to use! A little goes a long way. Mines lasted 2-3 months. Not sure why other reviews said it only lasted 2 weeks. Definitely not the case for me! I highly recommend this product, especially if you have issues with dry skin on your face!
Hands down favorite. 5
Melissa B from Ellensburg WA
I've repurchased this 3 times already and I don't plan on stopping. Light fresh scent, deeply moisturizing. I use 2 pumps in the evening and my skin is glowing in the morning.
Weird film 2
Resa from Ceder City, UT
This product felt greasy when going on and just felt like it left a heavy film. My skin seemed to be okay with it though, but could not get over the feeling
Very moisturizing 5
LS from NJ
This helps tremendously with the dry spots of my skin. This feels very rich but it isn't suffocating. It leaves skin with a glow that even shows up under makeup.

Hands down my favorite moisturizer!
The only moisturizer I can use 5
Gem from Maryland
I've used all sorts of moisturizers for my dry, sensitive skin. Combined with nighttime prescription retinol use, my skin would be moisturized for about 30 mins before getting flakey (made even worse in the dry winter air). This cream solved that. No need for additional oils or creams. Top with sunscreen and I'm good to go! While the press-down packaging style is a little annoying (hard to get a precise amount), I appreciate that this is to protect the active ingredients from air exposure. I've gone through 2 tubs in about a year. It's not bad price-wise, but I decided to see if I could find a cheaper alternative. Nope. The flakes were immediately back, and no amount of additional hydrating oils would help. I'm sticking to my Baba Bomb!
I love this product. The moisturizer is thick and lasts. 5
EC from Park City Utah
this has become my day and night moisturizer. I am loving how long it lasts and it is not expensive.

Good for dry skin 5
Cam from Springfield
I love this moisturizer! It makes my skin so soft and I really feel like it gives me a full day of moisture that's not too heavy or sticky. However, if you have oily skin I would not recommend. It is a pretty thick moisturizer, it takes a decent amount of time to soak into the skin, but when it does it's so worth it.
Love! 5
Must-buy from Sacramento,Ca
I had these huge patches of red and what looked to be pimples but without puss and as it turns out it's just REALLY REALLY DRY SKIN! All that redness was irritation to the skin. I put this on twice a day and it's cleared up almost 80%
I will continue to purchase this product regularly 5
Angela from Menifee CA
I purchased this as a moisturizer, but it works just as great as a primer. I have always struggled with dry skin. This product provides a light weight moisture that absorbs perfectly and does not create oily build up. A little bit goes a long way also, so it lasts for months.
Nope. 1
S from Ny
Was recommended by an ulta associate. Always willing to try new moisturizers but this was the worst. It's so sticky. I feel like I have to apply several coats to spread it. Using it til it's empty just because it was expensive.
Moisturizing! 5
Tweeter8177 from Minnesota
I have tried so many moisturizers and this one is a winner. I have spots of dry skin on my face and I have found that this product helps. I love that it has airless jar packaging and it is a fragrance free. The price point is so reasonable compared to many of the moisturizers out there. I never would have looked at Tarte for skincare, but this was recommended on Beautipedia, so I gave it a try. I am glad I did, and this is now part of my regular skincare routine. I use it as a nighttime moisturizers. I recommend trying it.
Love! 5

Only moisturizer that saved my winter skin!!
So hydrating! 5
Erica b from Denver,Co
LOVE the way it makes my skin feel hydrated and smooth. It doesn't have a strong smell and it's very soft
Love! 5
Audrey from USA
Great moisturizer if you're looking for that dewy glow! For reference, I have picky, combination skin. I've seen several other reviews that complain it's a bit tacky after you put it on, but I've never used a very hydrating moisturize that doesn't do that? I don't think it's bad, and it doesn't bother me. Makeup goes over it smoothly and it doesn't feel sticky afterwards, so I have no complaints about the slight tackiness after application.
GOOD RESULTS IMMEDIATELY 5
Lique from Salt Lake City
I started using this when a Tarte rep who was color matching me recommended it; I had dry, cracked skin near my hairline and I'd been trying to take care of it for MONTHS but after using this, my dry skin cleared up within only ONE WEEK OF USE. It doesn't feel oily or sticky, it's super light and a little bit goes a long way. I was never really big on moisturizer before now but I can't imagine using anything else!
Amazing effective product 5
LaLaLuci from Midwest
fantastic product for very dry and sensitive skin, lots of wonderfuly cell-communicating and skin reparing ingredients kept STABLE in the innovative, clean packaging. This one's a keeper for thg hose dry, sensitive skin who don't have as many moisturizer options as others.
Excellent night cream for very dry skin 5
TheKidFromWI from Chicago
I have dry to very dry, sensitive skin and cannot use products with fragrance or other irritating ingredients. This cream is thick, emolient, and plush and does stay on top of the skin for awhile ad it soaks in. I use it as a night cream and is the only product I've ever used that is able to fully hydrate my skin. When I wake my skin feels soft and plump, not dry and tight. This has been a lifesaver for me! if your skin is like mine I encourage you to give it a try. It is difficult to find moisturizers that do their job when you have sensitive, dry and flaky skin. This does and I am in love!
Does it's job 3
Grace from Missouri
I was really excited to try this because fragrance and alcohol free which I tend to react badly too. Unfortunately, it left my skin really greasy. It does it's job as a moisturizer so I'll use the rest of the product but I don't plan on repurchasing. I can see how this would be beneficial to dry skin types, but for my fellow oily skinned friends: I caution you against this unless you like greasy skin:(
I'm obsessed!! 5
Amk312 from Washington
I bought this moisturizer yesterday and used it last night and this morning.....I can honestly say it's one of the best moisturizers I've ever used!! I typically have a lot of dryness under my eyes and this cream has diminished it in just 2 uses! So much so, that I can't wait to see what 1 week or even 1 month does!!
Love this stuff! 5
Leah from South Carolina
I tend to have dark circles under my eyes. This stuff made my face look bright and dewy and seemingly helped my dark circles! I use every morning and night and wake up with a fresh face!
