Your nighttime recovery cream

Why it works

Where it earns the slot and where it does not

What it actually does well

  • Deeply hydrating
  • Targets fine lines and firmness
  • Pleasant texture
  • Clean and cruelty-free formulation

Where it starts to feel redundant

  • Contains fragrance
  • May be too rich for very oily skin types

Routine fit
