St. Ives Face Moisturizer Cream, Collagen and Elastin, Renewing Facial Moisturizer for Women, Paraben Free, Dermatologist Tested Daily Moisturizing for Dry Skin Cruelty Free, 10 oz

I absolutely love this St. Ives Collagen and Elastin facial moisturizer! It has a light, non-greasy texture that absorbs quickly and leaves my skin feeling soft, smooth, and hydrated all day. After a few weeks of use, I noticed my skin looking firmer and more refreshed. The scent is mild and pleasant, and a little goes a long way, making it a great value. It works well under makeup too. This has definitely become a staple in my skincare routine!

Both my 11 year old daughter and Iove this moisturizer. The container is huge and long lasting. I feel that it moisturizes well and feels good when applied. I actually feel that it moisturizes better than other, more expensive moisturizer I have. It has a subtle, clean scent which is barely detectable which is good. When I have a rosecsa flare up, this is non irritating. It's not greasy or heavy. It does not make my daughter's sensitive skin break out either!For such an inexpensive product, it really does work well!

I never write reviews, I don't have time nor have I gotten a product that works so well!! I have only used it twice, so I can't speak to the long term benefits.I have very sensitive, combination/dry skin. The jar is huge, very worth the low price. It has a subtle scent, not overwhelming, just enough. You only need a small amount to cover your face and neck. It goes on smooth and moisturizing but isn't greasy or sticky, it leaves your skin smooth and soft. I read a review that said not to use it near your eyes, I have super sensitive skin, so I tried just a tiny bit around my eyes last night, and it didn't bother them at all!! When I put it on this morning I went over my eye area and it doesn't bother them at all. In this economy we're all watching our wallets a little closer, so if you wanna save money and get a quality product and plenty of it, you can't go wrong with this moisturizer!!

This is a review of St. Ives Timeless Skin Facial Moisturizer, Collagen Elastin. It appears there are a couple of items reviewed on this page. I normally use pricier moisturizers like AHAVA, Philosophy, Elizabeth Arden, and Lancome but my skin is changing. I am starting to break out and have reactions to things I have used for years. I stopped using moisturizer completely for a while but my older dry skin needed hydration. I picked up some of this inexpensive cream and gave it a shot and what do you know? It didn't cause any bad reactions and it did a nice job hydrating my thirsty skin. It's pretty thick but not waxy and it absorbs well. It leaves my skin soft but not shiny and oily.This doesn't have a ton of scientifically proven anti aging ingredients in it but my skin needs the hydration more than anything else and it drinks this stuff in. I can use it day and night. People with normal to oily skin will probably only want to use it at night. This is unisex. It smalls like...cream. The typical, unoffensive cream scent that a man or a woman could easily use. I leave the big tub out and hope my husband uses it. He works outside and his skin is dry. I have encouraged him to use just a little but I don't know if he does. He has used it on his hands though.For the low price, I think this is a good basic moisturizer. It doesn't pill up or feel overly greasy. It doesn't cause my skin to break out and I can use it around my eyes with no problems. It won't be my holy grail but right now, as my skin is evolving, it is helping to keep it hydrated and moist. The price sure can't be beat!

This one surprised me after giving it a second chance!! When I first used it, it was the summer and I had a minor breakout. I said, that’s it, “this wil strictly just be something to put on my lips or to apply on the days after doing chemical peels coz it’s a waste to put expensive cream on peeling skin that’s just gonna slough off. Just something cheap.** Fast forward to fall, I ran out of another moisturizer I was using, and became desperate. I saw this big tub in the corner of my eye and I gave it another shot. This time around, I applied it to WET SKIN. Try it! It’s now my favorite way to moisturize now. Did I mention that this jar is HUGE! It’ll last you a while, but because it’s so cheap, you feel zero guilt about being waste-y about it. I kind of use it almost like it’s an essence (coz the water from wet face thins it out and makes it serum-y. ) I’ll actually just keep layering it on liberally, waiting each layer to slightly dry and then will max at 7. (7 layer skin method. Look it up.) Sometimes I’ll just do 4 layers, depending on the dryness. While I was out and about, and would touch my face, it felt SO smooth. Very pillow-y skin. :) I found my dry skin to be very comfortable (especially as a Retin-A user), a lot more supple, and also, this second time around, NO breakouts. It’s not a miracle product, but just provides your skin with moisture to avoid dehydration. Skin looks plumper and healthier. After using it for a good month in this fashion (putting it on wet skin) like this, I will absolutely buy it again. You simply CANNOT beat this price. This cheap product made me a believer that even the dirt cheap things work just as well too. It far surpassed my expectations, coz I really wasn’t expecting much at all. It’s certainly not a stand-alone, but plays nicely in conjunction with whatever other power potions you got, like retinoids. It’s light, yet very moisturizing, non-greasy and absorbs very well into the skin. Even though the ingredients say there is fragrance, it doesn’t smell like anything. It’s non-irritating and feels good going on. You don’t have much to lose from buying it. If you end up not liking it, it’s an amazing body moisturizer on damp skin. I really stress this damp skin thing. It makes a huge difference, and the moisture delivery to the cells is much more effective. This is a GREAT DEAL!
