Moisturizing, But Slight Stinging
Feeding off of how moisturizing and reputable Aveeno's body lotion was, I purchased this, hoping that it would be just as gentle and moisturizing as the body lotion. While it did meet some expectations, there was something about it that was... Undesirable, to say the least. And in short, it was the STINGING. Almost everything was perfect except for the stinging. I don't have sensitive skin. In fac...read moret, I can basically slap anything on my skin and it won't act out. I have no acne to be irritated towards, etc. But this night cream takes the prize for the one thing I have found in 14 years of skin care obsession that I can say will sting my face. That's a guarantee. This night cream by Aveeno has a really strong scent, which might be the source of the stinging, but the short, simple case here is: it stings. But besides that, I like this night cream. The little more than one oz container lasted me for over a year (about a year and 4 months), which makes it a good value at its $21 price tag and relative performance. It moisturizes really well, to the point where a little pinch will cover my entire face and I'll wake up to smooth, baby-soft skin. However, it can get a bit greasy (and I have dry/combination skin, so warning to people with acne). The texture is smooth and easy to spread, and the scent is a sophisticated floral scent. Also, the size makes this easy to take on travel, and the packaging is very sturdy (I can't count how many times I've dropped this on tile flooring) and cute. Overall, a good product with excellent moisture, but due to the stinging, I think I'll try something else.This review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 0 of 0 people said helpful

good results on skin but too heavily fragranced
This product definitely tightens, firms and hydrates well. Makes my tired, dull skin more even, smooth, supple when applied at night in conjunction with the cleanser and eye roller from this line. I do however, feel it is little too heavily fragranced and harsh, does slightly sting as a fellow reviewer stated. I dont really like feeling like Ive sprayed my face with perfume. But I am happy to have more hydrated radiant skin, and I will repurchase if I do not find anything betterThis review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 0 of 0 people said helpful
