I have been using this cream for about two weeks. It is a very hydrating cream, with a texture like gel, but thicker. One of the things I like the most, is the smell. It smell of roses, but nothing too overwhelming. Makes it feel very luxurious. I cannot tell yet if it improves fine lines, but It has helped with my very dry winter skin. My face is plump and hydrated and it has not made me break out.
