Excellent moisturizer
This was recommended after a facial in an Aveda salon. With the cold dry New England weather my skin has been horrible no matter what I've tried. After a few days use with this my skin is back to silky soft instead of alligator skin! Worth the money, and a little goes a long way.

Yuck
I did not appear to be allergic to this formula.
Sadly immediately after application, this moisturizer gummy….and my make up seized up…and would not spread evenly. I could not apply my eyebrow and eye makeup without forming tiny balls of the foundation and moisturizer.
Complete fail for me.

Aveda Intense Hydrating Cream Does the Job
Good face cream. Makes a noticeable difference when used daily (morning and night).

My Favorite Moisturizer
This is my favourite Aveda moisturizer. It feels wonderful when you put it on and it is not at all greasy. As my skin has aged, I've started using the Tulasara Firming Cream at night, but I still use the Botanical Kinetics Soft Cream during the day. I tried the Tulasara Renewing Radiance Cream and didn't like it nearly as well as the Botanical Kinetics Soft Cream.

Lovely but not enough moisture
Light lovely smell. Soft crème as the name implies, but if u have dry skin, this won't do the trick especially in winter. Will save for summer. Onward.

Favorite Product !!
I'm in love with this soft cream moisture product for my face and neck :)))))) The best I have ever purchased and I have tried many chemical free face moisture products..I won't name names. This is a smooth product that smells so light and as soon as I rub into my face,soaks in. You don't need to use much and the smooth feeling lasts all day. I have Rosacea and this calms my burning cheeks and soothes my entire face. The SCENT is so wonderful...it calms even before I put on my face !!!LOL...PLEASE do not change your formula !! So many face product companies change their formulas.... AVEDA ....PLEASE keep as is :)))
