Made my skin dry.
I am drawn to anything with a rose scent so I was excited about trying it. But unfortunately, this cream didn’t work for me. I tried it on my face and my skin turned dry.
Not sure about this cream.
I thought this would work better than it did. Did not help with dry skin and quick creasing after makeup application. Though it smelled good, it was strong.
Not sure I'd buy again or try any other items in their product line.
I’m surprised by the high ratings for this. I bought it because of all the positive reviews but I’ve found little to no difference in my skin after using it for several weeks. Not sure I’d buy again or try any other items in their product line.
