This moisturiser is creamy and smooth, it spreads easily and a little goes a long way. It is indeed mattifying, but it does that thing where if you sweat even a tiny bit it will trap it in and make you feel so much sweatier than you actually are. Also even after mattifying there was a slight dampness to my face which could have been residue of the moisturiser or oil I’m not sure. So it wasn’t 100% mattifying, but it also wasn’t drying in any way.
It has a mild scent of melon and lemon myrtle that I don’t love, but it’s not too over powering. It comes in quite a small tube but as you only need a small amount I think it would last a reasonable amount of time. I found it was moisturising but it wasn’t amazing. As for the price, I would never buy this. It is just way too expensive for something that I didn’t love. I also don’t like the off white/cream colour of the tube. The lid is a nice twist off metal with a bit of weight to it which I like.
Overall I’d say if this product is on sale, go for it!
This is a great lotion, it is light and easy to apply. However, I personally have found that I prefer trilogy hydrating face cream as it is a bit more hydrating for my dry skin face. However, I did find that this lotion was easy to apply and got absorbed very quickly.
