   This is my holy grail of all holy grail moisturizers. I have probably bought eight or nine of these moisturizers in my lifetime. It is a light moisturizer perfect for those with normal to combination skin (dry people like me might need to throw in a serum or additional cream). It is FULL of amazing antioxidants and smells amazing. It has never broken me out. The packaging is incredibly innovative as it products the antioxidants within, so you’re always applying fresh product onto your skin. When the package runs low, you can easily screw off the top to sweep out the last remnants of product. Expensive. Although worth it at 70.00, I have bought this from Ulta for half off during those beauty week sales.

   Perfect for when I travel and my skin dries out, or when the weather has cooled down. This is a medium consistency moisturizer that pretty much like all J.B products is chock-full of botanicals and organic ingredients. It does have a very unusual pump dispenser method that I haven’t seen in any jar packaging before and to be honest I’m not really keen on it.

   Packaging gripes aside, as a moisturizer it works great, leaving my skin supple but not greasy, and also makes my skin tone brighter and more glowing. Pores also look slightly more refined, but nothing significant (although if that’s what you’re aiming to achieve I would recommend giving The Ordinary ALA serum a try as it does a much better job…at least for me). Another good thing about this moisturizer is that I can use it directly before applying their Stem Cellular CC Cream which is HG for me. It works as a good base for it and with similar complimentary ingredients. I don’t have lines or wrinkles (yet) but using this it’s good to know I am helping to keep them at bay.

I love constantly trying out new stuff – usually sample sizes via e-bay, also plenty courtesy of a friend who works at Sephora)

   Definite citrus fragrance that is fresh and potent when first applied but dissipates quickly enough to not be bothersome. The moisturizer is okay, nothing special compared to other moisturizers, not bad, it just didn’t “wow” me enough to send me running to the store to stock up. I am all for investing in high quality skin care and this has the makings of one, although probably better suited for normal/combo skin. My dry skin needs something a little more hydrating this time of year. I will stick with my newest favorite Embryolisse along with some an essence and hydrating serum that do the trick for me. Having said that – I would encourage you to give this a try if you like fresh scented moisturizers with certified organic ingredients and have oily/normal/combo skin.
