First impression? This cream feels luxurious. The moment I smoothed it onto my jawline, there was this subtle tightening sensation—like my skin got a gentle hug. It’s not sticky, just velvety, and absorbs fast enough that I could layer foundation over it without pilling (a win for rushed mornings).
But let’s talk scent—it’s polarizing. To me, it’s a light floral-herbal mix, but if you’re sensitive to fragrances (like the reviewer who hated it), patch-test first. I actually enjoy it, though I wouldn’t call it ‘perfume.’ Pro tip: Apply before bed if daytime scent bothers you.
After 3 weeks, my neck wrinkles look softer—not erased, but less ‘crepey.’ My jawline? Firmer when I press a finger against it. Is it worth the splurge? For the hydration + subtle lifting combo (and that post-application glow under makeup), I’d say yes—but buy during a sale if budget’s tight.
Note: Don’t expect overnight miracles. Consistency is key here—I use AM/PM and noticed gradual changes. Dry-skin folks? The winter test passed: no flakiness even in arid weather.
