Moisturizing & repairs skin barrier, but does pill.
Style: 3.38 Fl Oz (Non SPF)
Given myself a couple weeks of consistent use before giving a review. There are a lot of pros to this product which include: moisturizing and stays moisturized all day, made my PIE marks (post acne marks) fade a lot faster. Repairs my skin barrier, especially while using tretinoin nightly, not too thick but thick enough to keep my face hydrated. It does not have a smell. The cons are: slight burn for about 15 seconds but disappears, it pills if I apply too much. It does pill less if I pat it on my face versus rubbing; it does not pill when I apply liquid foundation. I just have to let it dry for 15-20 mins before applying makeup. I found the pros to overpower the cons and will continue to use this product.

Will buy again!
Style: 3.38 Fl Oz (Non SPF)
This is a very nice product. For the size it seems a bit expensive, but a little goes a long way and it may be a better value than I initially thought. My skin does look better, so it is doing it's job! I like the texture of it. It is fairly light, not oily, absorbs quickly into the skin, which I like. Highly recommend.

Lightweight bur actually hydrating
Style: 3.38 Fl Oz (Non SPF), Style: 3.38 Fl Oz (Non SPF)
I’ve tried so many moisturizers that either felt greasy, heavy, or just sat on top of my skin, but this La Roche-Posay moisturizer honestly surprised me. It’s super lightweight, absorbs quickly, and leaves my skin feeling soft and hydrated without feeling oily. My face feels smooth and refreshed after using it instead of sticky or coated. It layers really well and doesn’t make my skin feel overloaded. Definitely one of the best moisturizers I’ve used so far.

Nice and work well for sensitive skin
Scent: Unscented, Size: 25 Count (Pack of 2)
Work well and don’t irritate my eyes or skin. Little pricey but I think it’s worth it— compared to Neutragena or others which burn my eyes and face !
