Botanics Lightweight & Hydrating Face Moisturizer for Women & Men - Gel Facial Moisturizer for Dry Skin - Enriched with Snow Mushroom & Aloe Vera - Vegan & Cruelty-Free 48-Hour Hydration (1.69 Fl Oz)

Love this cream. The new packaging threw me off but great for keeping my skin moisturizer but not oily

This is working very well for me. We live in a very dry climate that can cause havoc to your skin, especially in the dry, windy cold. This cream is working very well to help combat that, and has a nice faint smell to it.

Initial impressions: The packaging is nice. The jar is pretty and has some weight to it, making it seem like a high quality product that could be giftable. The lotion inside has a very smooth, lightweight texture, similar to The Water Cream I've bought from Tatcha (which costs waaay more). Between the package and feel, this seems like a luxury product, but at a much more affordable price.When I review products like this, I like to use it on just half my face for several days so I can easily see any differences with/without it. The product absorbs/dries within a few minutes, without any extra tackiness or shine. When I compare the part of my face with/without it, I notice that the side without the moisturizer has some white dry flakes and the side with the moisturizer doesn't. By the end of the day, the two sides of my face look and feel pretty similar though, and after a few days there doesn't seem to be much cumulative difference, though.The main drawback to me is the smell. This product has no added fragrance, but it does have a natural smell from the ingredients, and personally I don't like it very much. This might be less noticeable for other people, but I wear a mask when I'm indoors with groups, and the mask holds the smell in and makes it more noticeable, even a few hours after applying it. I have a pretty sensitive nose though, so it might not be something other people can smell, as I noticed other reviewers say there is no smell.

This moisturizer feels light on my skin. It doesn’t take much for my whole face. I haven’t noticed a scent which is nice for me. I have very dry skin and after just one use, I can feel a difference in my face.

Mmmm...snow mushroom and aloe vera, sounds good enough to eat!I am so happy to use Botanics Plant-Based products on my skin. I feel safer using these than chemical laden products.I use this very hydrating cream before bed, after cleansing etc. My skin feels supple and very hydrated when I wake in the morning. It really is a quality cream.Thes products from Botanics are priced very nicely too.

I really like this moisturizer - its really light and absorbs quickly. I brought it with me on a recent beach vacation and my skin sucked it up after a day in the sun and it left it feeling really hydrated, but not greasy, which is one of the things I hate about after sun care. No strong scent and nothing that would sting sunburns so its very soothing and hydrating. Would definitely get again!

i'm a skin expert, Esthetician, Cosmetologist, Makeup artist, etc. so, i truly am! haha. so, speaking of my expertise & product experience, & knowledge, i really DO like this moisturizer! it goes on well, it feels like it hydrates well. says it keeps ur skin hydrated for 48 hrs. not quite sure how that works, when ur washing ur face & all that, because products cannot penetrate our dermis, they simply stay on our epidermis, and THAT can be hydrated, which it seems to do, but 48 hrs? i'm not a chemist, but i'm hoping that true too. i think it's a good value. i can't recall any scent at this moment, which is good, because i don't like when fragrances are added to products (ala Lancome), they mess w/my skin. i don't think they are good. the natural scent from items IN the product are fine w/me.i already said the quality was good, goes on well, feels good afterward. doesn't mess up your makeup application that i've noticed, if ur using it in the AM. i rarely give out 5 stars on here, i have to REALLY LOVE something & be pleased w/it. so, this is high regards for me. :)

I love the way it smells and feels going on, definitely hydrates but unfortunately it breaks me out. I gave it a few weeks to see if it would stop or if maybe it was just a hormonal thing but I’ve broken out more in these weeks than I have in well over a year without any other dietary or lifestyle changes so it looks like this is the culprit. Wanted to love it but this one isn’t for me.
