Crema el gel favorita
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Mi cutis es muy grasoso y con esta crema en gel pude entender que es lo mejor para cuidar mi piel y q no se sienta pesada y grasienta a los 10 minutos. Esta crema es refrescante, ligera y evita que mi cara luzca sudada. Mi crema preferida

Lightweight like a lotion
I received a free sample of this which was a lovely deep, smooth cream. I ordered it and I found it to be very lightweight and more of a lotion. Not at all like the sample. It didn’t hydrate as well.

Hi there! Thank you for sharing your experience with us. We’re sorry to hear the texture of the Ultra Facial Cream with Squalane felt different from your sample and didn’t provide the deep hydration you were expecting. We understand how disappointing it can be when a product feels more like a lightweight lotion than the rich cream you enjoyed. Your feedback is incredibly important and has been shared with our team for review. If you’d like help finding a richer alternative better suited to your skin's needs, please give us a call at 1-800-543-4572 (Mon–Sun, 10am–7pm EST). We look forward to speaking with you.

Trying to find a cheaper alternative but nothing c
I hate how well this product works lol. It is expensive but the only thing that doesn't break me out or clog my pores. I have been desperately trying to find a cheaper alternative but always come running back when I inevitably ruin my skin.
I wouldn't call my skin oily, I can get really dry but my pores are really prone to clogging and my skin is sensitive overall. This product works for that. If everything else seems clog your pores try this.

Packaging needs work; product is great
This absorbs easily and feels great when I apply it. A little goes a long way. The ink on the container is rubbing off everywhere, though. I’m not sure why. It was stored in my bathroom and I also traveled with it, but it’s only been one month. None of my other moisturizers have this issue. The ink flakes off onto my fingers every time I touch it. It makes me want to continue looking for a favorite moisturizer, because it’s a very annoying issue. Great cream otherwise, though!

Kiehls Since 1851
Feels lightweight and creamy at the same time, leaves the skin feeling soft, smooth and balanced not greasy. All day moisture without needing reapplication. Low stickiness and not clogging pores.

Good basic moisturizer
A really nice basic moisturizer. Offers lots of hydration, but is still lightweight. No sticky or greasy feel at all. My very sensitive skin has no issues with it. No breakouts or irritation. Love that it has no scent. The price is also quite reasonable. I'd say this one will be a safe pick for most people.
