    The texture

    I love the texture of this gel. It feels soft and silky when I apply. It absorbs very quickly and doesn't leave me sticky. Nor does it get cakey and piling. Overall I really like this gel.

    New formula change is terrible

    I used this product for years and the new formula change has ruined my skin. Huge cystic acne and my rosacea has gotten significantly worse. If you have acne prone or sensitive skin stay away from this product.

    The jar I received is smaller than the one i just finished using. Allso the box had been opened before and was dented. The crea, I received is called Water gel and "aqua gel" The box says "gel cream" It seems ike the same gel but it has a different name and is smaller than the one I bought last time.

    Don't get it

    Doesn’t hydrate my skin at all no matter how much I pile on. If anything it dries it out more and it’s broken my skin out in an itchy rash and gave me whiteheads. Don’t buy

    Dont Try So Hard

    I like the feel of this moisturizer, but it adds question to my mind when you have to make it look like there is more product than there is with the use of deceptively tall packaging. Is there another brand out there that I’m missing with a larger size and similar product? I’m on the hunt now!

    Destroyed my skin barrier. I tried this in a pinch instead of Clinique moisture surge. I thought I just had dry skin at first and kept using it. My entire eye area is sore, dry and flaky now. My face burns and is dry and cracking in less than a week. This is the only change I made and I have to go to my Derm now for help. This product is awful!

    Disappointing formula change, immediately caused me to breakout. I’ve used the traditional formula for years, this is horrifying!

    Skin car staple

    I always come back to this face cream. It really gets the job done. Not too scented doesn’t leave my face feeling too moisturized or dry. I have dry to normal skin and it really works
