SO GLOWY!
I am totally blown away by this product. I wasn't sure what to expect, but it has 100% changed my skin for the better. It's like a shot of hydration, has smoothed out my texture, and makes my skin GLOW!! And, it smells ridiculously good. Like a burst of juicy citrus. I had questions about whether it would work well with other active ingredients, due to the fact that there is AHA in this moisturizer. I spoke with a Kate Somerville rep and they assured me that although there are actives in this moisturizer, they are at a low enough dose that it will not interfere with any other products (retinol, AHA/BHA, benzoyl peroxide etc). I've been using it for a month and I can confirm it pairs well with any other product you might want to use. I'm also not even near halfway through the jar... you really don't need much, just a little swipe, and pat pat pat onto the skin.

Weird Smell
I’ve used this for many years and have absolutely loved it. This newest one that I received has a really odd smell, like dirty socks, and it’s very watery. I’m pretty disappointed. I hope they haven’t changed the formula or I will have to find another brand.

I'm underwhelmed
I'm in my early 60s and it just doesn't feel like this stuff is doing anything. Very very light, and the scent is just okay.

A little goes a long way
I never thought I would like a moisturizer that feels so thick but this is amazing!!! It leaves your skin looking dewy (not oily) and fresh. After a few minutes your skin absorbs the moisturizer and you no longer feel it, you can just see it and it does not feel or look oily. I’m 38 years old and have never worn moisturizer. I’m so glad this is the first one I tried because I love it!

You Will Glow
People always ask me what moisturizer I'm wearing. It is a funny name. It literally glows. And it has become a very important part of my routine. I barely wear makeup now. Get ready for compliments. I have had problem skin my whole life. I break out from trivial things. This product saves the day--every day.

Glow moisturizer
I've been using this product for about a week. I think it may be doing something!! My skin is tingly when I apply it. My skin looks smoother too. It feels soft. I have been using this product as a moisturizer every day before applying my makeup. I also have been using Kate Somerville Vitamin C at night. I think they both are working as far as I can tell after a week.

Amazing moisturizer for smooth skin!
I have been using for about 5 days now and already see a difference in my skin. My skin is already smoother and this lotion feels great as it goes on! Not overly thick or greasy but feels moisturizing for sure! You get what you pay for here! Highly recommend. Oh and it smells like a day at the spa!
