Q: Can you tell me why this needs to have blue dye in it? What exactly does that do for your skin? I think that's a horrible ingredient when you've taken the time to remove parabens. I returned mine.

submitted by Anna M - 6 years ago
  • A: I agree blue dye is not needed and fragrance is not needed.

    submitted byCustomer - 4 years ago

Q: This product seems to be water-based and that would suggest that it goes on before a cream or oil based moisturizer, but this has dimethicone as an ingredient, which is an occlusive. Would I use this before or after a cream based moisturizer?

As someone who has super sensitive skin, I’ve tried multiple high end and low end brands but THIS moisturizer is better than anything I’ve tried! It’s super lightweight and feels very hydrating and cool when applied. My skin used to be dry and flaky and this is the only product that has fixed that issue. Has not irritated my skin at all and I’ve been using for over a year. Highly highly recommend!

JN - 2 months ago, Verified purchaser
After applying, my skin stings quite a bit. Gel does keep my skin from seeming dry and if it didn't sting I'm sure it'd feel refreshing, but overall I would rather use a regular moisturizing cream. No other product causes my skin to react like this one.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Moisturizer is cooling and feels gentle and hydrating on the skin. It has a slight fragrance that smells fresh. I have acne prone skin and it did break me out unfortunately.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Frutiger aero! This design reminds me of more promising times... I have been using a 2% salicylic acid solution for acne that makes my skin be extra dry and I love how gentle and moisturizing this is. My skin is left feeling soft and well hydrated thanks to the hyaluronic acid. A little goes a long way.
