Review (5/5): Great moisturizer!
For years I've been trying to fight my face acne at the young age of 24, and this past year I was on an escapade to determine the best product out there for my skin. I was always jealous of how other people's faces looked so radiantly clean and beautifully free from acne. But now I think I've found the answer! Hydration creams really can be a remedial solution for acne prone skin, especially when your skin is not getting the nutrients it needs. However, this intensive night cream is just about for anyone who has overly dry or acne-prone skin. I've tested several other hydration creams from Burts Bees and Avalon Organics, and I think this is truly a great product. Application of this night cream by Life Essentials is so easy where just a little dab of this stuff really goes a long way. The bottle lasts for about pretty long (depending on your usage) if you use it consistently every night. Once you apply it to your face for the night, your face will stay moisten & hydrated well until the morning and ready for you to start your day. No need for a second application.
Wash your face with your cleanser and apply this cream, and you'll see healthier skin in days! Also for those that are struggling with acne, sometimes a change of habits is in order. I didn't realize this until I forced myself to stop picking at my face, which I saw a rapid improvement in my face in less than a week. So stop picking at your face, wash your face at least 2x as recommended, and, you'll see results that you've been awaiting! This cream has some smell to it, which some people may not like.
