So when I got this product I was super excited because I had read so many great reviews about it. The first night, I washed my face with my favourite cleanser, patted it dry and went ahead to use this. Right off the bat I noticed how sticky the cream is, it honestly felt like I was putting wax on my face! After a few seconds, I noticed my skin feeling tingly and my eyes started watering. The smell was also horrible. I decided to leave it on and see how it goes through the night. The next morning when I woke up I splashed my face with cold water because my skin felt really dry and tight. When I looked at my face I noticed a huge pimple on my forehead, and smaller pimples around my nose, lips, and between my eyebrows. I thought that maybe I put too much cream on so the next night I put less on, and kept at it for a few days. I finally stopped a couple days ago because the pimples were not clearing up and to be honest I hated the sticky feeling this cream left on my face. Within a couple days my skin had cleared up!!! Bottom line I was really dissapointed by this cream, if you have frequent breakouts due to facial creams then avoid this at all costs!!!! This was so bad (along with the serum) that I wouldn't even give it to anyone else to try out.

I'll just stick to my Marcelle night cream that has lasted my forever and makes my skin feel amazing and looking refreshed when I wake up!    -
