It's back!

OMG! The original formula is back! I am so happy! I've been using this since, at least, 1998, and have been hiding my face since the todo with that reformulation. I feel like I can show my face again! Nothing made me happier. I could go without makeup and get compliments on how beautiful and unwrink...

Stealth Holy Grail

From Los Angeles

I feel like this product doesn't get a lot of attention, but it's such a solid product. I've been using it for years. Wears beautifully under makeup. Leaves your face looking better and more even after just the application. I used it with Skinceuticals Vitamin C and feel the two together just work to enhance my skin and the effects have not worn out over time.

Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend to a friend

My holy grail moisturizer

Submitted 4 months ago

By Socalsue

From California

I cant stop replensihing this product, even though I want to since its so dang expensive. I have dry, mature skin and live in a climate with lots of sun and about 30% himidity. This is the perfect moisturizer for my needs. Goes on light, adds a tiny bit of radiance, decent amount of SPF and doesnt pill under makeup. When I run out and have tried something else, i find my skin tends to look more dull over time, and I always fo back to this.
