Best for

When this is a smart buy

  • Dry skin
  • Combination skin
  • Normal skin
  • Those seeking lightweight hydration
  • Anti-aging concerns

Skip if

When this is the wrong lane

  • You have very oily skin and prefer a matte finish

Routine fit

Where this fits in your routine

Apply this cream as the last step in your skincare routine, both morning and night, after serums and treatments. It works well to seal in hydration.

Why it works

Where it earns the slot and where it does not

The useful question is not whether this product is good in a vacuum. It is whether it makes your routine easier to run or just adds one more bottle with a familiar ingredient on it.

What it actually does well

  • Excellent hydration
  • Lightweight texture
  • Contains ceramides for barrier support
  • Refillable packaging
  • Alcohol-free

Where it starts to feel redundant

  • May not be sufficient for extremely dry or compromised skin barriers on its own
  • Contains dimethicone, which some may wish to avoid

Routine fit

Where it belongs in the stack

Morning and Night

This moisturizer is suitable for both morning and evening application. Use it after cleansing and applying any serums or treatments to lock in moisture.
