Before I tried this product, I was aware that it would be a calming cleanser, but for some reason I had not realized that it would moisturize my skin as well! Imagine my surprise when I realized that this cleanser felt different from all other cleansers that I’ve tried before. I thought that maybe I’d used too much product, but when I squinted at the writing on the tube again, I saw that it said “moisturizing.” I was really impressed with how nourished, soft, and un-irritated it made my skin look, compared to other times when I step out of the shower. I will continue using this product, and have been recommending it to anyone who will listen!

Combined with the cleanser, these 2 products have been the most successful so far at reducing the redness in my face (especially after taking a hot shower). I used the cleanser while in the shower, which reduced some of the redness already. Then after drying my fave, I applied this moisturizer and waited a little. Members of my family noticed right away, when I stepped out of the bathroom, that my skin was very very calm compared to other times that they’ve seen me step out of the bathroom post-shower. I did find that when I applied another layer of the moisturizer (because my skin gets really dry in the winter, and need a little more help), the sunscreen started collecting on my eyebrows, and along the edges of my face. I do appreciate that there is sunscreen in this moisturizer, but could do without it as well. That being said, I think that this moisturizer would be perfect for me during the summer months, because I would need to use less product (so there would be no accumulation of sunscreen), and because of the SPF 30.
