I agree with Charlene, at first, the scent does take some time getting used to as well as the fact that it contains no sunscreen.
I love the fact that my face has a light feel... Fresh is what comes to mind :-)

As with other Rubybox subscribers, I got this in my December Rubybox. They gave us 4 sachets of the product which was enough for 12 days of use. My first impression of the product was that it had an awful scent. There is some ingredient in it that I just cannot handle first thing in the morning. It literally made me feel sick to my stomach every time I used it. I thought I'd get use to it after the first few days, but I still can't. It's such a pity because the cream is really great. It is natural and leaves the skin feel good after about the 4th day.

You can also feel the product on your skin for a good couple of hours after applying the cream. Personally I prefer moisturisers that absorb into the skin without leaving a feeling of it sitting on your skin all day.

I think the biggest problem with this day cream is that it does not have a built in sunscreen in it - which most day creams have. That means one has to apply sunscreen and then the moisturiser - It just seems a bit of a waste of time and money to me.
