I have used this night cream for years and I love it!
Awesome night cream
After only 2 weeks of using this every night, my skin has a smoother texture and looks great!
Feels wonderful & moistrizing
This feels wonderful. It definitely moisturizes the skin. I only wish the cost was much less. I didn't realize until I got home how much it was because there was no price listed for the size I got, only the smaller version that was about half.
Love
The first time I've used this, I went to my phone and ordered a second one. Love this stuff.
My go- to lotion
This is the only moisturizer I've used for the past year and it works. I have had skin issues, itchy, dry skin and this calms without leaving my skin feeling greasy. Lightly scented with a bit of a thick consistency.
