Nature Republic Super Aqua Max Combination Watery Cream

👍 UPDATE: (a few days later) Since Amazon was the shipper, they refunded the order and I ordered a second. There was still no bubble wrap or protective packing inside the box but the jar arrived in tact this time. I tried to just get the item replaced but Amazon's chat-bot said "not available at this time" - which would suck if the item was on sale for the first order but not the second.. it was the same price luckily. Kinda wish the seller would bubble wrap the item and put the Amazon sticker on the outside (as is the norm with many "breakable" things I order, thus removed one star) or Amazon could add some packing material when shipping. Roll of the dice I guess! 🎲🎲🤷‍♀️🥳 REVIEW: I totally love this cream - it smells very similar to Victoria's Secret Bombshell lotion - I use it as a final step before bed to sort of seal in other products when I'm not using an occlusive like Aquaphor. Will update review when seller gets back to me~👎 ORIGINAL COMMENT: Arrived totally obliterated inside the Amazon box. There was no bubble wrap or packing material to keep an item containing GLASS from being tossed around, crushed or broken. This came from the third party seller CrushOn. I put in a message through the automated system (button next to ordered item called "I need help" and selecting 'other'), they have two days to respond. There is no refund for this, but I would definitely like a replacement!

I’ve been using this moisturizer for about 7 yrs now and love it. It’s very light, soft, absorbs quickly and doesn’t leave me face feeling greasy like some other products I’ve used before.

I was looking for a moisturizer that will hydrate my face, but help control oils as well. I think it’s been working fine. It feels nice on my skin and it lathers very nicely and well over my skin. It does have a little bit of fragrance, but it goes away once applied.

Nature Republic Super Aqua Max Combination Watery Cream I ordered this for my mom since she's been interested in trying out a new moisturizer, but I've split this with her and I also use the cream, so my review is a mix of both of our opinions.SKIN TYPE:I have oily skin, but after incorporating tretinoin cream into my routine, my skin is a bit more dry/dehydrated on my cheeks. My mom has combination skin with an oily T-zone.USE:My mother and I have been using this daily in the mornings since August 2016. A little bit goes a long way and you get a lot of product for a good price. We both use about a pea-sized amount. My mother uses this cream by itself before applying sunscreen and her makeup. I use this as my final step before sunscreen over 5 other products (FTE, toner, essence, serum, CeraVe PM). The Super Aqua Max doesn't feel heavy on my face' however, I don't find it super hydrating by itself, so I would recommend layering it over more hydrating products if you have dry or dehydrated skin. Otherwise, I think that this product would be fine by itself/as the main moisturizer for more oily skin types.TEXTURE:The cream absorbs quickly. It feels refreshing and cooling on the skin. I love love love the way this makes my skin feel. The skin doesn't feel sticky or greasy and the cream doesn't pill under makeup either. My face feels plump and silky smooth, and I have to resist the urge to stroke my cheeks throughout the day. I apply this on my neck, chest, and hands, too. After patting this into my skin, even my fingertips feel! so! smooth!PACKAGING:The packaging looks very sleek and refreshing; however it's a bit heavy and I'm personally not a fan of jars. I purchased this from the seller theAlist and mine did not come with a spatula. I've decanted half of the jar into a small airless pump I purchased from Daiso.SCENT:It smells pretty strongly of cologne, but I'm not sensitive to smells and the scent has actually grown on me.BOTTOM LINE:If you can deal with the smell, I'd recommend giving this cream a shot! If I ever find a better moisturizer down the line, I'd probably keep using the Super Aqua Max cream as a hand lotion since it feels great and is affordable. The texture is hands down my favorite part.(seller review for "theAlist": fast shipping, spatula was missing, messed up tracking that still shows my order as "arriving today" 3 months after delivery???)

UPDATED REVIEW ON 3rd purchase:I’ve gone through 2 full jars of this and loved the product. The lotion is great. However, this go around Amazon is my issue. They shipped my product with a book I ordered. It was totally out of the packaging box and lotion is all over the outside and on my book. It’s a miracle it didn’t break. The packing by amazon has become a real problem for me. Also it wastes the product I spent money for. You can’t return this product so I’m going to have to try and clean it up the best I can. I recommend this lotion but would suggest ordering it alone so it isn’t packaged with anything else because amazon has become incredibly careless.First review:My first impression was that this product has an intense amount of fragrance. First let me say the scent is not unpleasant. In fact I think it smells amazing, but it is very strong. I have incredibly sensitive skin which is what led me to AB products in the first place and it tend to be very reactive to scents especially on my face. I had to work up the courage to try this product and I have been using it for several days now. My face feels amazing after application, but I'm still waiting to see a long term change in the hydration of my skin. I'm hoping my skin continues to improve but I think it's too early to definitively say it won't break me out. I will update review after some substantial time has passed.*UPDATE*So, I updated from 4 stars to 5 stars. I never had a single negative issue when using this lotion. The scent was never a problem. In fact I looked forward to slathering it on my face just to smell that amazing smell. I scraped every drop of this product from the jar.

I use it as a top layer after toner and serum, the texture is watery and light weight, for which I like. The fragrance smells nice but is much stronger than I would preferred, like having cologne on my face.

Love this product!! My skin not only feels soft but rejuvenated, my daughter brought it back from Vietnam and I thought I’d give it a try and ordered more as I feel refreshed of a morning when I have put it on. Definitely recommend it as it’s also so much cheaper than the other brands that do the same thing.

The product came in a really bad state, as if it has been thrown around. When I opened the jar, there was some dried up cream around the ridge. The amount of cream inside looks like it has been used by someone already.Really disappointed.

Lovely water cream. My skin feels so hydrated after use. I will use this at night. The scent is very refreshing and the texture leaves skin silky smooth. Not greasy at all. Love it.

Love the way it absorbs in to the skin. Gives you a clean fresh feel. This product was recommended by a friend and I will certainly be buying more .

Best cream vape very, will never. Postoperative using it. Found it in South Korea when I was there and comtinue to buy online now. Only face I’ve found that don’t not give me spots.
