I received a sample of this ultra-lightweight moisturizing gel and was quite impressed with its texture. I decided to invest in the full-size product. It is very light and dries quickly after application, though it still leaves a bit of a sticky feeling to the skin. However, the pump has been another story. After about two days of using the product, I began to have trouble getting it to pump out, despite storing it correctly. I kept pressing the pump, but no product came out. Frustrated, I started shaking the bottle to help the product settle at the bottom (the opposite direction of the pump), hoping the tube inside would catch the moisturizer for distribution. Unfortunately, that didn’t work either. I even tried shaking it in the other direction, but only a small amount came out. After struggling for a while, the bottle finally gave in and spat out the moisturizer. I certainly didn't expect to get a good arm workout in the morning!
So lightweight!

My face is so dry but I hate the feel of heavy cream moisturizers. This is a gel and feels so soft and hydrating! Would buy again!
Best moisturizer at a fraction of my usual!

Me gustó mucho esta crema en formato gel. Tiene una textura suave, no tiene olor y la piel la absorbe de una. La use como último paso de mi skincare de noche y la piel me quedo hidratada y luminosa ya que en sus ingredientes tiene 3 tipos de ceramidas y ácido hialuronico. De este linia Cerave también tengo su espuma de limpieza y el toner que lo amo
Great product! Thanks for sharing.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] When it claimed "weightless" I was incredulous. The first time I used the product I realized it truly is as ultra-light as it claims. Left my skin feeling moisturized without that greasy after sheen. Will definitely purchase for daily use.
It’s alright, nothing special.

I really don’t know what to think of it. It hasn’t improved my skin texture. Thankfully it hasn’t made anything worse, but for almost 20 dollars, I expected it to make a difference. I do love how it has no scent, but what I love the most is the texture. It’s a very light-weight gel consistency. It’s very smooth on the face, and it doesn’t leave you lie face feeling sticky.

After applying this product on its own, it wasn't enough hydration and moisturizing going on. I live in a humid region and I could still feel my face being too dry. I can say that adding a layer of hyaluronic acid before applying this product does make a noticeable difference in keeping my face from drying out too quickly.
I was skeptical of a gel
