Dear, Klairs - TasTheStuff review for Rich Moist Soothing Cream

If you’re looking for a no-nonsense, no-fuss moisturizer, Dear Klairs has developed the Rich Moist Soothing Cream just for that. I’ve tried many moisturizers, and while I have favorites, I’m always open to finding new ones that could potentially become a favorite. I tried this cream a few times, and I’d say it’s a good cream based on my experience, but it wasn’t special enough to become a new favorite. The Dear Klairs Rich Moist Soothing Cream is great for sensitive skin, though I think it’s best suited for drier skin types. As someone with combination skin that leans oily, this cream applies to a satin matte finish. However, if you apply too much, it can look greasy, especially on hot summer days. I feel this is perfect for the rest of the seasons, particularly winter. I anticipate using this full-time during the winter. Here are some of my current thoughts on this moisturizer and why I rate it a 3.75/5: 💙 Ease of Application: It's easy to apply, with no complications. It helped with redness and soothed the dry spots on my face. It also works well as a body cream, especially since my body skin tends to be dry. 💙 Texture and Feel: Although it's rich, it’s not heavy. My skin likes that it doesn't feel clogged, especially on my face. However, I did notice some questionable ingredients, which I'll mention next. 💙 Perfuming Ingredients: This product contains a LOT of perfuming ingredients. This can be concerning, especially for those with potential allergies. I patch-tested this on my sister, who has a lavender oil allergy, and her skin didn’t react well. Though these ingredients are low on the list (indicating small amounts), it’s crucial for those with sensitive skin to do a patch test first. Potential allergens include: - Lavandula Angustifolia (Lavender) Oil - Eucalyptus Oil (also serves as an antimicrobial) - Citrus Aurantium Dulcis (Orange) Peel Oil - Citrus Limon (Lemon) Peel Oil 💙 Beneficial Ingredients: Despite the potential allergens, the product has some beneficial ingredients that can't be overlooked, including: - Glycerin - Butyrospermum Parkii (Shea Butter) - Jojoba Seed Oil - Ceramide 3 - Arginine Overall, I rate this a 3.75/5. It’s a good basic moisturizer but may not suit everyone. It worked well for my skin type and didn’t cause any reactions, but a family member did react to it. So, I advise patch testing before using it. Otherwise, it’s a pretty good cream.
