My skin tends to react very badly to season changes and this year it was no exception, Once winter started, I got some very persistant redness on my nose and cheeks and so I started using this cream since I had heard very good reviews about it. I have to say it does what it claims. My skin is calm now redness is almost gone after a couple of weeks and in addition to this, my skin feels very hydrated and balanced. At first the texture seemed a bit thick to me, but once I rubb it on my face it sinks in very fast and with a healthy finish. I can feel how it fills my skin with hydration and soothes it. I highly recommend this cream to those of you gals with sensitive or dehydrated skin.
