(More customer reviews)If you are willing to dish out 35 dollars on a moisturizer, know that there are much better products out there. This one, at least in my opinion, missed its mark.
To start off, I use Billy Jealousy everything! From Sucker Punch to About Face, I am in love with this line. So of course it only made sense for me to try this moisturizer out seeing as how I think Combination Code is amazing. I mean, how different could it be from that?
I washed my face as usual before putting a small amount of this product in my hands. I dabbed it on lightly all over my face at first and then used the pads of my fingers to rub it in. What I noticed first was the gritty texture of the creme. It was very abrasive, especially considering it was a moisturizer, not a scrub!
The smell hit me second. It was just terrible. I am trying to think of something comparable to this smell, but I simply can't. At this point, I was done with this product as far as regular use was concerned. I did keep in on for the rest of the day though, and I found even more reason to dislike it. My face was so shiny after an hour or so that I was embarrassed to be seen in public.
So, lets recap. It scratched my face, smelled terrible, and gave my face an oily and greasy look. That is three strikes, and this product was in the trash.
In conclusion: If you are to spend this much money on a moisturizer, I suggest The Art of Shaving Moisturizer if you want something light, or Billy Jealousy's Combination Code if you want something a little thicker. Or, if you are interested in this product for its SPF benefit, look for Anthony's SPF 15 face moisturizer or Dermalogica's SPF face lotion.
