I recently received my Clarins Re-Boost Moisturizing Cream trial. My skin is combination: patches of dryness from new retinol treatment and my usual oily acne-prone areas. At almost 30, I already have some areas of aging around my mouth and eyes. I also have redness and mild rosacea. No matter how good my diet and skin routine has been, I've struggled with my sensitive, irritated skin for ten years! I recently found out it is hormonal and allergy related so I was feeling hopeless. But a few products have turned it around.The texture is a very light gel-like cream. At first, it felt a bit tacky, but it soon dried smooth. It does work well under foundation, however if you are in a rush in the morning and wear full coverage, it may not be the best choice. I have a bit of sun burn right now and it felt SO soothing. At first my cheeks flared up a bit but over the next 10 minutes, they calmed completely to where I almost didn't need foundation!I am now using it only at night as I am already using a moisturizer with SPF during the day and prefer a combined product. My night routine has simplified to: micellar water to remove make-up, a gentle cleaner using a konjac sponge in the steamy shower, then let dry... Retinol cream, let that dry, use a spot treatment where needed, then the Clarins spray and moisturizer. It is so nice to go to bed without itchy red skin! At first I did not notice a big difference but then a few hours later, I touched my face and realized it was so soft and smooth. After a few days of use, my skin is looking very smooth and feels great. It seems to be firming but without any tightness.I trust this more than products that use chemicals that immediately create a synthetic soft coating. There are some "chemicals" but I don't see anything too worrisome and as much as I'd like to go "all natural" with my problematic skin, I have not found anything that is effective and does not break me out.It does have a scent, however it is derived from fruit extracts and very pleasant. I am very perfume/scent-sensitive (asthma and migraines) but it does not bother me at all and wears off quickly as it sets in. You can also request a sample from the company which I would recommend for very sensitive people.Now, it is a bit more expensive than some products you may find, but even on my budget, I think it is worth saving up for. I was using an even more expensive one but my finances changed and I can no longer afford it so I was upset when I ran out... til I found this. You only need a TINY bit to cover your whole face. I imagine it would last for months.I would recommend this to anyone who has oily or combination skin, or if you have very dry skin, you could pair it with a serum or stronger moisturizer at night.
