I’ve learned my lesson. When I get a free sample, I need to research the cost of the product before I use it – just in case I fall in love with it. This is one of those over-the-top expensive products I’m not likely to ever buy, but I tried the free sample anyway. Here’s what I thought…
Pros: Paraben-free. Made in USA. Good for “normal” skin. Claims to help the appearance of wrinkles/fine lines. Contains anti-oxidants.
Cons: Expensive. Heavy. Not good for sensitive skin. Strongly fragranced. It smells like “rose”. I use the quotes because artificial “rose” smells nothing like actual roses to me. It happens to be the only faux-flower fragrance I don’t particularly like.
In Summary: I have no idea why they were so heavy-handed with the fragrance on this product. It goes on your face! If it were a body or foot or even hand lotion, I could understand. The smell is just kind of overwhelming. Seriously, do NOT buy this if you get migraines. I had to wash it off after trying it. But, hey, at least I didn’t fall in love with it…
Price: $69 for 2 oz, $99 for 4 oz.
