As you know I have very very dry skin and unfortunately, I live in a rather dry, cool environment. So I’ve been looking for the most moisturizing and thickest creams to penetrate my stubborn skin. I have used Etude House Moistful Collagen Cream and Innisfree’s Orchid Intensive Cream in the past, but now my avid scientific research for something new has led me to Innisfree’s Green Tea Moisture Cream. Keep in mind that Innisfree has a line of Green Tea products designed to address different skincare concerns. The various lines are fresh, balancing, and moisture with fresh being the lightest and moisture being the heaviest:

I am reviewing the moisturizer from the heaviest because I have the driest skin and it is literally the bane of my existence. But I’ll save my existential crises for another time.

About the Product

In my own words, this product is a highly moisturizing heavy cream meant to rejuvenate the skin and provide the adequate moisture and hydration to make the skin feel soft and dewy.

Consistency and Smell

This product smells VERY strongly, so if you’re sensitive to smells, this may be one to stay away from. It does, however, smell very good. I LOVE the smell, so I find myself looking forward to the fragrant bomb that I’m willingly enduring to look pretty. I smells a bit like green tea cologne. But the smell should only be a minor issue,. Because the product is so amazing, it should make it easier to endure.

The consistency is very thick. It is very silky to the touch and glides on like butter, even though the consistency is nothing like butter. It’s just a nice heavy cream that smooths onto the skin as if it had a lighter consistency.

My Review

I absolutely adore this moisturizer because it is very very moisturizing and keeps me hydrated all day long, which is a feat because I live in a rather dry climate. It goes on very shiny, so if you prefer a more matte look I would stay away from this product. Luckily for me, I like looking shiny and dewy! It’s cute! But back to the point, this product has become my holy grail. It is very moisturizing, safe for sensitive skin and is doing a wonderful job of adding that elasticity back into my skin. It’s a yes from me!
