I was asked to trial this no-frills everyday moisturiser a few months back, and was so pleasantly surprised by its effectiveness, that it's become an integral part of my daily beauty regime (and that of my husband). Noreva might be a household name in France - where every girl and her poodle grows up using 'pharmacy brands' like this, that are stocked at just about every corner pharmacy - but it only hit the shelves here in SA recently. Forget big promises and fancy packaging. This ultra light, easily absorbed daily moisturiser promises 24-hour hydration that won't irritate sensitive skin, and that's exactly what it delivers. That said, I'm currently based in Israel where the weather averages 30 degrees in the shade, so I may need to switch to a slighter richer formulation upon returning to wintry Cape Town later this year...
