little white truths

Verdict

I've read a lot of reviews of this product and it's definitely got two thumbs up from most people.

I like it but I don't love it, which puts me in the minority!

Don't get me wrong, it's a lovely cream: it smells nice and has a wonderful, creamy texture, and it goes on smoothly. What I don't love about it is the residue left behind - it's rather greasy on me and my skin doesn't seem to like it that much, in the sense that it doesn't look better after application and the cream doesn't plump my fine lines, even temporarily (which makes me wonder how well it's being absorbed - I reckon it sits on the surface of my skin, rather than sinking in well).

It's unusual that I'll find a cream too heavy for me because I love heavier creams (my skin is dry so it needs them), but this one is. For this reason, I don't think it's a good makeup base - it's too slippery.

Interestingly enough, plenty of other lasses say the opposite - calling it lightweight and moisturising without being greasy etc - so it clearly just doesn't like my skin!

Still, it's fine and I'll definitely use it, and I'm glad I've tried something else from this brand. I'd be more than happy to try more from Naobay in future.
