GHI Expert Verdict
This moisturiser was described by many testers as easy to apply and pleasant to massage into the skin. It left behind a refreshing, cool sensation and was easily absorbed. The panel said they found the packaging well-designed and that a little product went a long way, smoothly covering the face and leaving it soft and supple. It was hydrating, had a lovely light scent and left the majority of the panel satisfied overall.
