Advantages: Smells good, smooth application, leaves skin feeling soft and hydrated

Disadvantages: Expensive, small bottle

I've suffered with spot prone skin for years now, and as an adult it's not exactly what you want. I've never really found a moisturizer that's 'right' for me as I have combination skin that is oily and sensitive depending on what mood it's in.
I was looking for something to go with my normal skincare regime that not only moisturizes my skin, but helps eradicate spots and manages oiliness without irritating it. I've used Garnier products in the past to help with my spots, but to no great effect but I thought I'd give this a go as my skin has improved slightly with age.

The moisturizer itself smells lush, there's no chemical smell at all (which can irritate my skin). The packaging is clear with emphasis on a key ingredient for helping to clear spots; salicylic acid. The colour and design is appealing and fresh looking which reflects the smell of the product nicely.
It glides on my skin beautifully, and just a tiny amount provides a nice even coverage without leaving an oily feel. My skin afterwards feels smooth (if a little red) with no tightness or dryness. I'm yet to see an improvement in my acne, (but I do need to ease up on the alcohol and junk food) but it leaves my skin feeling smooth, fresh and hydrated.

My only complaint is the pricing and the small packaging, although you could argue the amount you need per application fairly reflects this, I have worried about how much I may need to spend on this every month. I would recommend to anyone using this that a little does go a long way.
