Amazing Cream
This cream is very light. Spreads thinly & sinks right into your face. In 5-10 minutes tops, it’s absorbed. No tacky feeling left behind. I’m sick of the thick, rich creams that don’t completely absorb & a layer is still sitting on top of your face. Half of it ends up on your pillow at night. This cream softens the drier parts of my face that other creams can’t conquer. No irritation. It doesn’t spread towards your eyes to irritate there too. No fumes from scent. Comparable to Giorgio Armani’s $400. lightweight cream & that was the best I’ve ever tried until now.

Not good for sensitive skin types
I use Darphin products all the time as they are high quality and very effective....this cream used in combination with the lumiere essentielle serum caused me to react with a rash. I have sensitive skin..no doubt for the lucky people who don't it is a great product.

Dreamy cream
The consistency is a creamy gel, but feels light. I like how it sits on skin and makes my dry skin feel soft. The smell is nice and not too strong.

Darphin Lumiere Essential: Essential Light
Lovely soft gel cream moisturizer with an essential touch of light. Feels soft and creamy, absorbs quickly, very hydrating, leaves a subtle hint of light glow to go.

quite light though still nourishing
All products that I have tried from this brand have had lovely textures, and fantastic aromas. I am regularly impressed with products from this reliable brand! This has a really nice, cooling feel, and absorbs easily. Quite light, but the oil does make for a more nourishing cream. Not quite rich enough for night-time but good for when a medium intensity day cream is needed.

Gives soft skin
I love using this product. I use it in the mornings. It leaves my skin feeling really soft, and I think my skin looks brighter. I haven't used a gel cream before, but this has won me over. Best for soft feeling skin, hydration, and brightness. Glad I discovered it.

Hydrates the skin
This was my first Darphin product and I was really pleasantly surprised. I've tried so many moisturizers that are fine, but this one, even after the first application, was AMAZING. I noticed immediately how soft and dewy my skin looked the next morning. I haven't found a cream this hydrating in a long time. It's incredibly light and airy, with a lovely scent. I use it in the evening so I don't know how it reacts to being under makeup. I also got the Lumière Essentielle serum and they complement each other well.
