Most Helpful Positive Review I took a risk. And I really like this product! I needed a moisturizer to last me a while on a budget. I have very dry skin. I usually use Philosophy's Miracle Worker line. I think it feels just as good (if not better) than the Miracle Worker moisturizer. And I need a lot less of it. I am in love with the texture. It's a bit spongey, like a mousse but it's also thick and creamy. A tiny bit goes a long way and is very moisturizing. My skin looked plumper after the first use. It does have a sort of strong scent. I can't exactly put my finger on it, but it's pleasant. I feel like I smell sophisticated. However, probably not the best for people sensitive to smell. Overall, for $20-ish, I think this is a bargain. I've used much more expensive moisturizers, with harsher chemicals that didn't work as well and didn't last as long as I can see this laying.
Also, I feel like my neck skin is much softer yet looks a bit tighter. I get annoyed by my neck, because I feel like I'm going to have a "gobble" as I age, but when I stretch my neck up, I can't feel the skin tighten and resist where it usually does to make me think that skin there is going to get loose after a while, if that makes sense.
Most Helpful Critical Review not so good for VERY dry skin + other issues I have very dry skin. After applying this and letting it dry, my skin still felt tight. I wore it for several weeks, but it never helped with dryness.
The other issue I had was that its not good for layering with make up or sun block. It pills and peels.
I was also not a huge fan of the smell, but I can see others enjoying it. It's not a bad smell but I didn't like that it reminded me of the smell of swisher sweets, the cigars.
Overall, gave 3 stars for good price, and really good ingredients. It's probably still good for my skin, but I think I have to focus on my dry skin.

MJH from San Francisco, CA
I don't have enough things to say about this cream! I love it lots. It is a bit thick, but it's a day cream so I wasn't too surprised. Smells delicious without being overwhelming AND I rub it in between my hands prior to putting it on my face and I feel like I melts onto my face. This collagen building day cream is great!! My dry skin really loves this

High end style products highly recommend 5
Picky SkinCare Wokan from South Florida
I am sticking to these products great ingredients found in moisturizers 3-4 times the cost I love them all
I love how strong and thin this cream is! 5
T from Oklahoma
I have struggled to find a hydrating cream that does not come off and/or clog my pores. I read the reviews and were skeptical of the price but I have used for two months and no longer does my skin feel dull and has helped it reach that perfect cusp of hydrated and dewey but not oily looking! Will be my go to from now on.
love this brand 5
megan from Washington
I have a few other items from this brand (toner, cleanser, masks), and I was expecting this to smell similar. Most of those smell like fruits, but this one kinda smells like hot chocolate. After applying, my skin felt soft and plump. Very interesting product.

Love! LOVE! Love! 5
H2o instructor from Brookfield WI
Love all Andalou but DMAE Lift and Firm cream is my go to night facial cream. It goes on smooth, absorbs well, smells wonderful. All this using natural ingredients - #1 being ALOE. Thank you Ulta for continuing to carry this brand. I just wish you had more of this line.tip: on dryer days, I add TARTE Marcuja oil for boost of moisture! Another all natural product - so good, my dog licks my face when I put it on🐾
Wonderful product 5
Keira from Dallas texas
I use this product every night, it is moisturizing, very light scent, doesn't irritate skin( my skin is real sensitive) no harsh chemicals, no complaints I would highly recommend this product
My winter holy grail 5
rvtprincess from Denver, CO
My skin is normal most of the year but very dry in the colder months. This stuff feels so good on my skin and works well under makeup. I love it! This is my second jar.
Good Face Cream 4
Khunt from Las Vegas, NV
Love that this has a light creamy texture. Absorbs well and doesn't break me out, like other face creams have done. Has a light fragrance that goes away rather quickly, unlike some of the heavier perfumed skin products that seem to over power and linger forever.
Love it 5
Halez from Tennessee
It feels too lightweight when first applying for my dry skin, but after a few minutes it almost seems to have gotten plumper which is so odd to me. That being said I LOVE it! I haven't been using it long enough to notice a reduction in my fine lines but it looks beautiful under my foundation and always leaves my skin feeling soft
Love the smell and texture 5
Sandra from Naples, Fl
I love all of the Andalou products, they feel expensive but are not! I love that they are plant based and cruelty-free. I think a lot of people assume these vegan products do not work as well without the harsh chemicals but in this day and age, it's so not true. I love how it feels on my skin and I feel like I just glow! It smells great too and the texture is really nice, not too greasy or too soft.
Underrated! 5
Cjhalfthai from Lynbrook, NY
I use it day and night and I gotta say that I really really love this. I bought it on clearance because I was discovering products and moisturizers that were not tested on animals and decided to give this a go, I love it so much and I'm glad I tried it. I am repurchasing when I always run out of it. It has been my holy grail moisturizer. Some people say they don't like the smell but honestly it is not that bad and neither is it too strong. You will get used to it and every time I smell it it just reminds me of the feeling of moisturization that doesn't feel greasy. It feels like whipped cream when I apply it on my face and it's a good thing.
Great for Dry Skin 5
ShoppingJules from PA
I received a sample of this and finally used it in the summer time for 3 nights. I decided to buy the full size when I saw it on sale to would save for the winter. I have combo skin, oily tzone, dry around nose, mouth and cheeks. I usually have dry patches on my face in the wintertime, but ever since I started using micellar water in AM/PM with conjunction of Timeless Skincare 100% pure HA with either 100% squalane/argan oil, I haven't had dried skin all winter...until I exfoliated and did a face mask. Even after reapplying my current moisturizer, It Cosmetics Confidence Cream, after my normal skin routine, my skin was still very dry, flaky, and embarrassing! Then I pulled this out to use one night to combat the dryness, and I saw a major difference the next day that I have continued to use it since and have not reached for the It Cosmetics Confidence Cream. Phew my skin is saved and back to normal despite the 20-30 degrees weather. I use this cream in the AM & PM after my micellar water, HA, face oil routine. The cream is thick, but melts and gets absorbed quickly with no greasy feeling, just smooth and hydrated! I wish my skin could be like this in the summertime too. As for the smell, I am sensitive to scents, but the scent fades away and does not bother me. To describe the scent, it is like a hint of cocoa butter with a grape scent, weird but that's what it smells like to me. Also this cream does go a long way as this cream is very tightly packed, it's not the same texture of typical face cream. I only started using the 2.0 oz of It Cosmetics Confidence Cream at the beginning of the month, and two and a half weeks in AM & PM, more than half the container is gone. This product is 1.7 oz, it will last longer, it's cheaper and more effective. Idk if it helps with aging, but my skin feels and looks amazing! I would definitely recommend! Can't wait to try other Andelou products!
Using to prevent aging 5
megs from Maryland
I got this as a way to combat and prevent aging as well as light moisture. I'm 20, have acne marks/scars, and hyperpigmentation/broken skin capillaries. I use this at night and have noticed I wake up with even toned skin that is moisturized. Not sure how it works for aged skin, but as a prevention, I like it.
Love love love this! Will buy always. 5
Babyjoy from Parkland,FL
This has been a life saver for my skin. I am prone to breakouts. I believe it's also responsible for lightening spots on my face. Got lucky and bought it on clearance and decided to try. Love it! Will continue to use it.
This is a new staple 5
Jan from West Virginia
I love this product. It is as effective at firming as Algenist for a much better price. The scent is a little hard to deal with but it fades quickly. I could tell a difference after a few weeks.
Great moisturizer with advantages... 5

the best ever!!! 5
shell from pa
i don't know why this brand isnt talked about. All products from this brand are amazing!!! Its the only face products i will use!!! They work amazing .Doesnt break me out at all. i have oily skin ,but have a friend who has dry skin. works for her too. Safe ingredients that are good for your skin. The products does what it says. I admit did try other brands. Nothing works as well as this. This is a brand I trust. I was so happy when I went into ulta all Andalou marked down to 5 dollars. i bought every item in this brand. wish they had more on shelf!!. I hope ulta doesnt stop selling this brand. its a brand i trust.Like i said safe ingredients which is very important to me.
works great!!! 5

I do feel this works better too. i only have slight fine lines on my forehead. I hope ULTA continues to sell these products. i have bought other items from line they also work great!!

MJ from Charlestown, RI
Just started using it, so far I like it. Will see long term benefits and review again probably.
Deeply moisturizing 5
CC from Jacksonville, FL
This cream leaves my sensitive/dry skin beautifully moisturized and youthful like no other product! I was using a competing hyaluronic moisturize that failed to significantly replensish my skin, so I took a chance on Andalou. So glad I did! Versatile enough to use before bed and under makeup in the morning.
I love this so far! 5
Leah from Tacoma, WA
I love this product. i got a sample of it and while this is my first time using it, my face feels great! I washed my face and applied this after and it is wonderful. I have very greasy/oily skin so I have to be careful what I use as far as lotions go for my face as I tend to get even more oily with the application of lotion, but this is great and leaves my skin with a silky smooth matte feeling- not greasy at all! yay! As far as smoothing lines and wrinkles I am not sure about that since I haven't used it long enough, but my skin already looks brighter and smooth and soft after one use.
