"Very good cream. After years of struggling with problematic skin, dry and dehydrated, I didn't expect to find a moisturizer that provides long-lasting hydration without leaving a greasy or heavy feeling. I love it, it has suited me very well and it also has a very good price. I would also like to add that I like its packaging, which reduces the chances of product contamination compared to jars."
