   I love the serum from this line but this was disappointing. I don’t think it does much for my skin and it’s soooo heavy and oily!! I only use as a nightcream and even still it’s almost uncomfortable for bed bc of how sticky and greasy it is. Ugh.

   A nice cream. I have the oil free version, which is great for oily skin or acne prone skin. I have a few moisturizers from Origins but this is the one I reach for the most in the past three months, since it moisturizes well without being too oily. I would repurchase it.

   I agree with others that this is a rather heavy face cream with a very creamy and heavy texture, but that is why I like it for the cooler months when the air is drier. Even for my combination oily/normal skin. It should be noted that it is not particularly greasy, just heavy. It soaks in after awhile, leaving a protective dewy cover on the skin surface. It also leaves the skin feeling soft. I love that it is anti-aging with SPF 25. I like it so much, I have repurchased my second jar. The only problem someone might have is that it is in a jar, so you’re constantly dipping your fingers in. Keep those fingertips clean! It is a relatively expensive too and relatively small in size. That is why it gets only 4 stars. Maybe a comparable drugstore product by will work better for those on budget.

   Having oily skin I was excited to try this in the oil free version. An anti aging moisturizer with spf 25 exactly what I was looking for but unfortunately after nearly 2 wks of use I can’t take this oil slick on my face. I’ve even tried to use less to see if that makes a difference but no it didnt. It just makes my face shiny and oily all over throughout the day. After application my hands had that greasy feel that sunscreen has. It’s expensive at $56 but I was willing to pay if it worked well. This is going back.

   I’m not very impressed with this product. It’s not completely awful, but it certainly is not as good as it should be for $55 USD. There are more things that I dislike about this moisturizer than like, but I will start with the positives.
   Pros:
   – No white cast on the skin like many other SPF facial moisturizers
   – SPF works well. I’ve never had a sunburn or sunspots with this facial cream, but for those of you who burn easily I can’t say how effectively this will work for you because I do not burn very badly.
   Cons:
   – I have the oil-free version of this product, but it leaves a greasy feel to the skin and doesn’t seem so oil-free to me. I’ve used drugstore oil-free SPF moisturizers that work better and are less greasy, sadly.
   – If you are like myself and are acne prone, definitely make sure you use the best skin care regimen for your skin because this can cause occasional breakouts on me if I don’t use a strict skin care routine. I have a huge issue with this because a product from a high-end line such as Origins should not be causing people to break out, especially the oil-free version.
   – This facial cream is super expensive, but provides mediocre, and sometimes less than desirable results. I don’t have a problem paying for high-end products, but I expect them to work like high-end products. It’s pretty bad and totally inexcusable that some drugstore products I’ve used are 5X better than this moisturizer.
   In terms of its anti-aging properties, I can’t really make an accurate judgement because I am in my early 20’s and I don’t have problems with aging skin yet, but this product was not really beneficial to me in any other way. I will finish this product up, but I will never repurchase it or recommend it to anyone.

   The sunscreen in this product worked, but aside from that I found no benefits. It was greasy and made me breakout every time I tried using it, even in areas I don’t usually breakout in. I’m planning on trying something else.

   Had high hopes as the product claims looked so convincing! Used it every day for several weeks and my jowls, neck and general face area looked exactly the same and no better. I expected a slight lifting or tightening but sadly did not improve my skin.
   It feels no better than an upmarket Ponds cream!

   Another waste of money given to a multi billion $ beauty industry selling ineffective potions that cost more than gold in weight!

   My face has never held moisture all day before like it does with this moisturizer!!! My face feels dewy, glowing, and hydrated for 10+ hours. I opted for the oil-free version, and it’s so light! The SPF 25 is a nice touch, too. It hits all of my basic moisturizer needs totally out of the park! Exclamation points!!!!!

   I really like the serum in this line but this is just so greasy. Not for anyone but dry or very dry. There is too much slip which does not dry down, so makes foundation slide around too much. No visible benefits but i guess it does the job. I finished this as a neck and body cream since I could not use this on my face.

    This is nice, pleasant scent. Nothing to cheer about, but it does the job.
