KORRES

 Wild Rose Night-Brightening Sleeping Facial

I highly recommend this cream as part of my nightly skincare regimen. Unlike most of the other reviews here I LOVE the rose scent and it's one of the selling points for me! This cream definitely moisturizes well and leaves my skin feeling soft, plump and gives it that glow I've been looking for!

I have been using this a few nights a week for the last couple of weeks after receiving a deluxe sample size. Wow. Every morning after, I have woken up and felt that my skin had a nice healthy glow. I know others may be sensitive to fragrances, but I am addicted to this scent…for me it's like a soft natural rose scent but doesn't smell artificial or overpowering. I can't speak to the lightening or brightening of spots bc I haven't been using it that long and am not relying on it for that. Will definitely be purchasing a full-size jar!!

I love this stuff (see original review), but after a few months using it nightly, it's not doing anything for my dark spots (which is sort of why I bouy it to begin with). So while I'll still use it, & might buy it again in the future for it's smoothing features, I'll probably try another brightening cream once this jar runs out. Kinda disappointed, but it does say facial, NOT spot corrector, so I guess that's my bad lol.

I was so excited to try the product and have a usually strong tolerance to scents - but holy lord did this one take the cake. I put it in my hand and held my breath as I smeared it all over my face and neck. I left it for maybe 30 seconds with my eyes still closed and that was a no from me dawg. I immediately ran to the bathroom (eyes opened at this point lol) and RE-WASHED my face and scrubbed the scent off as much as I could. I washed again and used a well scented soap for my hands and picked a NEW moisturizer. IDK if mine was a rouge horrid smelling one but good holy miss moly I could NOT do it.

I've been looking for a night cream to even out my skin tone/lighten dark spots, but also NOT make me break out in the morning (I've got oily/dry combo skin). I also refuse to use anything but cruelty free products, so sometimes finding a good product takes a while lol. I love roses, and after reading the reviews on this, I decided to try it. I did buy it knowing that the smell might be off-putting. I have a bloodhound of a nose so if it was really that bad, I would know right away. I was surprised that it wasn't as bad as I was expecting it to be. It does smell like "old lady," but not in a horrible way (imo). Basically you're smelling the rosehip oil (mixed with other oils) which competes with the rose petal smell, and so it comes out smelling like classic Avon bar soap (which was the standard in the day so that's why we all know that smell thanks to moms/aunts/grandmas) with a bit of rose. It is a thick cream, so the few days I've had it I've used it sparingly on top of my night moisturizer (by Anadolu Naturals). After a few minutes the smell goes mostly away, but again I'm not using a whole lot - no more than a fingernails worth on my whole face, which might sound like it's not enough, but it is, it glides on smooth as silk. This amount seems to absorb almost completely before my head hits the pillow. I've been blown away by the results. 3 days in - no breakouts, no clogging, and my skin is visibly smoother than it's ever been. No indication of improving dark spots yet, but I have no doubt after a few weeks that will happen (as it's full of via c). This stuff is worth every penny!
