i've been suffering from dry skin due to pregnancy, ive tried various dry skin creams some too heavy others ok but, i need to apply three layers for any benefit. i bought this cream because it was on offer, and i can honestly say it feel like liquid silk on my skin AND i only need 1 layer not three, its smells fresh not heavy and sickly after using just for 2 weeks my skin looks plumped and feels so soft and firmer, i bought some for my mum she is the biggest critic of face creams and thinks there a waste of money especially the expensive ones and she was impressed. well worth trying.
