Description
This day cream's innovative formula, based on newly discovered plant extracts, is capable of compensating for the absence of hormonal influences on the skin. To feel comfortable throughout the day, women with more mature skin need a rich, emollient cream texture and a continuous supply of moisture. This one delivers just that and it's also lightweight, gives a flattering matte finish and has a seductive fresh, rose fragrance too. But the big issue is its ability to restore a more youthful look and deep-down condition to the skin with an innovative moisture management system and a formula that intensively replenishes and reactivates skin weakened by age.
Directions
Apply in the morning to the face and neck with light pressing motions. For skin particularly lacking in vitality, apply Super Restorative Serum beforehand.

Strongest points
Thick, nourishing and highly moisturising. A little product goes a long way. Attractive jar.
Weakest points
Expensive and too heavy for normal, younger skins
Summary
I tried a tester of this product but was under no illusion that this would suit my own skin. It is definitely suited to mature and dry skin textures. The product itself is a rich cream and intensely hydrating. It absorbed easily and did plump and moisturise the skin dramatically. The scent is off putting. It has a floral rose fragrance which I found disturbingly overpowering. All said and done this product seems effective and is highly suited to mature skins but very expensive. I am sure this would not be off putting for those that need the extra hydration but I would not recommend this for younger ladies?

Strongest points
Absorbs well and feels good on skin. Good quality ingredients which didn't upset my sensitive skin. The promise is always tempting!
Weakest points
Didn't last very long- maybe I used too much. Pricey to buy on a regular basis. Bought mine along with the night cream on offer at Duty Free.
Summary
Good for mature skin.
