The Body Shop Aloe Soothing Day Cream – Moisturizes Sensitive Skin – Vegan – 1.7 oz

I have really sensitive skin too because I'm Chinese and have allergies. If I so much as accidentally press too hard or scrape my face skin, it will stay reddish forever, or even develop a rash if I don't leave it alone. I have SUPER dry skin on my face, yet can have an oily forehead on some days.I actually took my chances a long time ago on using this stuff. They also have more Aloe products that go with that, such as a toner, a Night Cream, and an extremely gentle exfoliating Face-wash. I currently also have the exfoliating facewash and after I'm done using it, my face feels all smooth :D Then I slap on my Aloe Day Cream and I'm ready to go :D It goes on me like silky butter, and I can feel my skin THIRSTING FOR IT if I do not put it on! It does not make me feel oily or clogged-up at all. My oilier hairline doesn't seem to mind this cream at all.There is a review on this Day Cream; the girl said that she felt it smelled like vomit and was horrible and such. I don't recommend you listen to her, because anything with aloe is going to well.. SMELL like aloe. The Day Cream's aloe scent is mega mild anyway, -and- I enjoy it so I don't agree with her.If I do break out, it's never because of this cream. It seems that for me, pimples can be really light colored, yet hurt like a horrible beesting. I just take care of it with that Aloe face-wash and then slap on a tiny dot of Proactiv for each zit to dry it out.I believe The Body Shop also has a similar line just for crazy skin that can't figure out if it's dry or oily. I wanted to try that out too but I was so happy with this Aloe one that I don't care anymore.Every time I wake up, I actually look forward to putting this Day Cream stuff on my face. It feels so RELIIIIEEVVVINNGG. I have random dry spots sometimes along my jaw or my forehead, and it clears it up. After I shower, I rub it on and make happy-faces while I wait for the initial absorption. After that dries, I rub it on AGAIN. If this cream were a Pokemon, and my dry skin were another, then every time this Day Cream attacks, it's super effective!It makes my nose really smooth too, so I keep randomly touching my nose. My face wants to talk to me and thank me now, I swear.

I was looking for a substitute moisturizer for Boscia Revitalizing Black Hydration Gel, but of course nothing seems to be comparable since they are all different. I did not want to pay a lot of money for something that only cost that much due to brand name. I stumbled across this Aloe Vera moisturizer along with the day cream. I did my research on the ingredients, how it compares to other top brands, and the reviews people gave. I was a little worried because it was 'cheap' but I think it's a social mentality. Not all 'cheap' products are bad. So I bought the night cream and day cream to try and I LOVE IT. I use it on my face as well as bug bites.This moisturizer did not make me feel like I have a ton of oil on my face. I have combination dry/oily skin with some acne. I don't use foundation or any make-up besides eye liner. I definitely noticed a difference in my skin. It's less flaky and dry but not too oily. It's like matte. There is also a cool sensation. My face is a lot smoother than usual... and I love it. It feels like I have baby skin again! I don't need to apply a lot to cover my skin so this product lasts for a long time. I've always been on a search for the right moisturizer that works for me and THIS works for ME. Despite all the positive reviews, make sure you do your research and see if it FITS FOR YOU and YOUR SKIN.I also used this on bug bites, mainly mosquitoes. I get a bad allergic reaction and swell up. It literally looks like someone punched me wherever the mosquito bite is. I applied the night cream and it was soothing, mainly because of Aloe Vera. Because it's so soothing, I didn't feel the urge to scratch and can slept well. The next morning it was practically gone. This is the first time anything worked on me so well and I'm happy with it. This review goes for the DAY and NIGHT cream. I also suggest the Day cream with SPF.

The Body Shop's Soothing Aloe Day Cream is excellent for my very fair, very dry facial skin, especially in winter. It keeps it well moisturized. A little goes a long way. It is very light and and doesn't clog my pores. There is no greasy aftermath. I It is not advertised as a wrinkle remover, the very fact that it moisturizes my face makes my 88 years' skin wrinkles appear to be greatly reduced.

I like this moisturizer because it is greaseless and does not irritate my sensitive skin. Recommend it.

I love that it's not greasy, but it still moisturizes. I have very dry skin and this sinks into my skin without feeling gross. It also works great to put on before makeup. Usually face creams make makeup slide off my face or dry up and crack. This does neither. I don't love the smell, but it's very subtle and with my sensitive skin I can't really do smell-good stuff anyway. I will probably be purchasing this again--and for me that's pretty dern good!
