I really like the way this cream moisturizes. It seems my makeup goes on smoother with this product. — 2 months, 1 week ago

Great Cream
leo1999 (560 reviews)

This is great stuff. The only reason for not getting a "10" is that I don't like paying the hefty price for it. I can get it at Target, though, so it's a convenient find. It is rich, absorbs well, and does not irritate my sensitive skin at all. There is no fragrance - just a wonderful cream for dry skin. Love it. I wish it cost less, but oh, well. — 3 years, 7 months ago

Great for dry skin!
chanceuxlilas (322 reviews)

I use this every night to soothe my dry skin. For the first time I am 100% sure that I can apply foundation to a smooth surface which is my newly hydrated skin. — 2 years, 12 months ago

I'm 46 and I look much younger!! I've been using Lady Soma's Renewal Serum for several months. It is the only moisturizing agent that I can use on my nose without causing pimples! yay! It's also amazing what it does for skin tone, texture, firmness and wrinkles. I hardly wear makeup anymore on a day to day basis. I am so, so pleased with this product. My only minor complaint is that it's a little thick and I found it hard to use only a "pea sized amount" to cover my whole face and neck. If you start using this product, make sure you use sunscreen all the time during the day. The Retinol makes your skin really sensitive and you can get some nasty burns with very little exposure. Also, be prepared for a few days of red, irritated skin when you first use it. But don't worry, it goes away quickly and the results are fantastic! — 1 month, 1 week ago

SUPER LIGHT!
easter_lin (13 reviews)

I absolutely love this cream! It's so light and yet it hydrates my extremely dry skin all day long! It absorbs right in and I can't even feel it when I put my make up on top! I love love love this! It's a great buy! The large size ($46 at the freestanding Kiehl's by me) lasts me over a year! A little goes a long way. — 1 year, 4 months ago

not great for dry skin
Beautybeginner (4 reviews)

this is one of the very first kiels products that i tried and i was very disappointed... i have dry skin and this did nothing for me.. great for normal skin types but you would need something with a bit more substance for dry skin — 1 year, 11 months ago

Best Moisturizer
Scarlett23 (74 reviews)

I have sensitive, combo skin prone to breakouts. This is, hands down, the best moisturizer I have ever used, and I have tried them all. It is my go-to nighttime cream, and after extended use my skin has become more supple with no breakouts; in the harsh NYC winter months, it's also my daytime moisturizer and is perfectly light enough to wear under make-up and keeps skin hydrated all day. Also, like the rest of the Kiehl's brand, it's scent-free and not animal tested - a cult product for sure! Worth every penny, and the large container lasts forever. — 2 years, 3 months ago

good, not awesome
SeraphinaB (9 reviews)

this is a good basic face cream but I found I needed alot to do what some other face creams (ex. kiehls creme de'elegance) do with less. It's probably perfect for a summer moisturizer or for someone with very normal skin. My skin is moderately dry and this doesn't quite do it for me. — 2 years, 11 months ago
