product first impression:

at a glance i have a huge doubt on moisturizers, as most i have tried have a very waxy,slimy,heavy feel on my skin from the moment i have added it to my face and so i have generally avoided them. however i heard once that the reason the skin becomes oily is because my skin is trying to lubricate itself and so in short it needs moisture to start with. 

thats is why i have not stopped searching for the right moisturizer or skin care product, maybe its just a matter of finding the one with the correct formulation.  founder of the brand is a doctor so it seems to be something legit rather than other brands who mainly offer cosmetics. and its nice to hear that it is a product that is designed by someone in the correct field and probably knows what hes doing

this product claim only 3 things, it promises not to clog pores,hydration and it is oil free. it sounded like a jackpot for me so its worth a try.



product review

i have applied (1 pea size) this first thing in the morning after waking up after a full 6hr sleep without washing my face as an experiment,i wanted to see how good the product is even if i already have some existing natural oil on my face as the product itself never mentioned a mattifying effect and i thought if it passes my test now then the product will be better used after a freshly washed face. the first time i pumped it on the back of my hand as my fingers touched the white cream i noticed that it felt a bit waxy, similar to a silicone barrier cream (the ones i used to use to cure my grandmas bed sore years before) so i checked out the ingredients at the back immediately ( and yes it contains wax) this feeling on my fingers scared me and i thought that this product may end up as another waste of money as usual. 

applying it on my face felt like it was a bit watery,cool to the touch and less waxy .and i said ohh this is new! and as i was rubbing it through out my face i felt like it had suddenly quenched my skin. it was impressive, but again well i wanted to look for something to hate about it. as a few minutes  passed by the feeling was way different from the previous moisturizers i have tried (smashbox) this product was not greasy at all which makes it the best one ive tried so far, a few hours passed and is i am typing this article its now 6 hrs after i first applied it and so far it stood up for its promise and i have not yes shed oil-my problem solved so far


rating:

i was not concerned with the spf or sun protection as i rarely go under the sun
my main concern was hydration which this product has accomplished smoothly.
i have not been irritated and my pores seemed to shrink a bit and less noticeable. it also felt light and wearing it alone like nothing at all. a little goes a long way therefore spending a high price for a fullsize bottle is more likely to be worth it. yes i will repurchase and yes i strongly recommend
