St. Ives Face Moisturizer Cream, Collagen and Elastin, Renewing Facial Moisturizer for Women, Paraben Free, Dermatologist Tested Daily Moisturizing for Dry Skin Cruelty Free, 10 oz

I can't tell you how many face moisturizers I've used over the years. Lots. I still come across half full bottles in the closest or bathroom from three or four years ago, products that were too greasy, too thick, too irritating, too smelly, too watery, too expensive for such poor results. Ugg. But I do love St. Ives. I love their body lotions, hand lotions and masks, so when I came across this face moisturizing I was so excited. I searched for it in stores for a couple of weeks, and came away really disappointed. It seems like the only place you can buy this now is on the internet, and I'm thrilled that Amazon had such good prices. I spent around eight bucks for my 10 ounce jar, and a month into the use of it morning and night, I've barely made a dent! I'll be thirty this year, so I am taking preventative steps in my skin care routine now. Baby laugh lines, deep thinking lines and smile wrinkles are all visible (though my boyfriend says I'm the only one noticing at this point!). I am not ready to commit to heavy duty anti-wrinkle products yet, but I did want a product I could use daily that would give my skin a boast. This is that product! This moisturizer soaks in quickly. It has a light, floral scent (smells like other products that have safflower in it) and is white in color, with a smooth, solid-ish consistency. A lot goes a long way, and usually I just use some of what is on the lid of the jar, left there from jostling the jar around. I use it all over my face, neck and decolletage. I am careful to avoid my eye area though! This product is really, really NOT eye friendly, and that is the only drawback. The product warns to avoid the eye area, and that's no joke. I do use a separate moisturizer for my eyes anyway, and I usually apply that first so I have a good idea of where to put the face cream afterwards. A little warm water or witch hazel can calm any eye contact though. After a month I am really content with this moisturizer. It does not make my skin overly oily, it does not irritate my skin -- though it does bother my eyes if I get it in or near them -- and it soaks in fast, so I don't have to delay putting on make in the morning, or laying down on my pillow at night. While I haven't seen over the top, super results as far as my little wrinkles go, I do know my skin is consistently moisturized, more even in tone, softer and yes -- a little bit firmer. I also love that I can layer other things on top (like a primer, sunscreen or powder) without my skin getting clogged and gross. Over all I am really pleased with this product, and it is now a staple in my skin care routine. I'll definitely be buying this when I run out...in about four or five months! Ten ounces is a lot! -JR-

Extremely hydrating and refreshing on the face. I have incredibly sensitive, dry, mature skin. It went smoothly under makeup, dried quickly and wasn't greasy. It feels incredibly hydrating but not heavy. The fragrance is fairly light, and not off-putting to me. Easily one of the best daily moisturizers I've used in a while.

I have been using this for years and it is one that always makes my skin feel great. I have very sensitive skin and have never had issues with it irritating or causing breakouts. Scent free and helps makeup go on super nice. Very lightweight and never a greasy feel. Works great on my face but I use it for my whole body and it’s like magic

This facial cream has completely transformed my daily skincare routine. The texture is incredibly lightweight yet deeply hydrating, absorbing into my skin almost instantly without leaving any greasy residue. Since I started using it, my complexion looks noticeably brighter and feels much smoother to the touch. It provides the perfect moisture barrier for both day and night, making my skin feel pampered and refreshed. If you are looking for a reliable glow, this is a must-have for your vanity.

This is a really solid everyday moisturizer, especially for the price. It’s lightweight but still hydrating enough for dry skin, and it absorbs quickly without feeling greasy. I like that it keeps my skin feeling soft throughout the day, though it’s not the most “luxury” feeling product out there. Still, for a simple, reliable moisturizer, it does exactly what it needs to do. Great value and a good go-to for daily use.

Despite the reviews I was skeptical but the reviews were so good I decided what the heck. I'm a retired roofer who worked many decades in this Florida sun, and have leathery skin especially on my arms that always feels dry and tight. Not any more! All those reviewers aren't kidding- it's a good sized container that'll last a while because a little cream does go a long way, and it's absorbed into the skin quickly with no greasiness at all. The skin on my arms and face actual feel better as well as feel better to the touch and did so after the first application. It's got a nice scent that isn't overpowering, and I highly recommend this cream. I'm just amazed!

I have not used St Ives facial cream in about 6 years because my local stores no longer carried. I love it on my hands, arms and face. I have used a glycolic product for almost 3 decades & this works synergistically with it to keep my face soft and unwrinkled without botox. I have not found any product that works with it as well, even the expensive night creams that are sold with the glycolic product. Also, wonderful on hands a couple times a day to keep supple. I am 70+. It is more than a face cream & the cost makes it affordable for almost everyone.

I am really impressed with this moisturizer! The first thing I noticed is how it truly hydrates the skin. The scent is a plus, it’s very subtle and pleasant, not overwhelming like some perfumes, but also doesn't have that "plain chemical" smell that some unscented creams have. ​I was pleasantly surprised to find out that St. Ives is PETA-approved. Knowing that its parent company, Unilever, had issues with animal testing in the past, I used to be skeptical. However, seeing that this specific brand is now certified cruelty-free makes me very happy, as I strictly avoid products that involve animal cruelty. ​It is also great to know it's made with collagen and elastin proteins and is paraben-free. And it comes in a huge 10oz jar that will definitely last a long time, and the price is very affordable. If you are looking for a budget-friendly, and ethical moisturizer, this is it!

The seal was broken! How can I know now this is the real cream or a new product??

This is now my favorite neck-chest and face moisturizer! It has a pleasant neutral fragrance, wipes on easily and isn't oily. A little seems to go a long way and the price is reasonable given these benefits. I apply it a little after a different product that contains Retinol. The combo noticeably diminished the appearance of neck wrinkles in just one and two weeks.

Ho acquistato questa crema viso perché ho visto il prezzo super vantaggioso. Arrivata anche un giorno prima rispetto a quello indicato, l'ho provata subito e devo dire che l'odore mi piace tantissimo, molto fresco ed estivo. Per quanto riguarda la qualità per ora è presto da recensire per bene, però posso dire che la uso io che ho una pelle abbastanza secca e me la idrata molto bene, la usa anche mia figlia che ha una pelle molto grassa e comunque non le si lucida subito il viso come con altre creme. si asssorbe subito ed ha una consistenza leggera quasi gel. Comunque SUPER CONSIGLIATA

Tengo la piel muy sensible y esta crema me va muy bien y se absorve rápidamente sin dejar la piel engrasada.
