This is what I currently use for most of the days...more nights actually. It is a thick formula, but on days when my skin is extra dry I put it under the Revlon Colorstay foundation, which is rather drying. I really enjoy putting under it something emollient, I feel like my skin looks more dewy and natural.
Back to the cream. I found it at TK Maxx for £5 and if I see it again I will pick it up. It's cheap and lasts a long time. Because it is thicker, a pea size scoop will cover the entire face. Now it says it has retinol, but because it's in a jar it probably won't last. If you are looking for a retinol product, go with a prescription one that really penetrates the skin. It has a lot of moisturising ingredients in it: plant oils and squalane and Hyaluronic acid.
For the ingredients in it, the price is really good. Doesn't have anything irritating in it, nor alcohol. Really impressed. For dry skin, really good, but I would not suggest this to anyone who is oily or combination. This will be too much. If I use it on oily days, it does break me out, because of the oils in it. It's just too much for my skin to absorb.
I will list the ingredients here because I can't find them on the internet:
Aqua, Vitis Vinifera (Grape) Seed Oil, Squalane, Triticum Vulgare (Wheat) Germ Oil, Ceramide 1, Retinol, Rosin Oil, Ceteareth-6, Cetearyl Alcohol, Algae Extract, Sodium Hyaluronate, Phenoxyethanol, Methylisothiazolinone
