Review

Ok I saved the best for last. I have to admit was very hesitant about its marketed ingredient: horse oil. However this horse oil is a by-product of meat consumption and horses were not purposely used for this. My philosophy is that if we kill to eat the meat we should use the rest of the animal.

This cream is super luxurious. It is extremely moisturizing without being oily. It does leave a coating that makes this product stand out from the rest. If I was to find the fabric equivalent to this cream it would be the cashmere of creams. It brightens my skin leaving it super soft, remove all flakiness, and most importantly calms my skin. I do know what else to say except this is my HG cream and recommended it to all skin types; night cream for oily skin. I absolutely cannot stop touching my skin after using it. It also makes a very good eye cream, reducing the fine lines I have there. This cream literally makes my skin feel all so hydrated and bouncy like I was in my teenage years (without the crazy acne and oiliness).

The cons of this cream is that it is not good to use under makeup (although I do not need to wear makeup after using this cream) and the scent. The scent is citrus masking what I assume is the smell of horse oil. In the container it smells fine, but after a applying it smells a bit like sweat. It is not strong and dissipates after a few minutes.
