Super Sensa Moisturizer

This moisturizer is literally the best moisturizer I've ever used. Unfortunately it is on the pricier side which honestly might make it unsustainable for me in the long run and I might need to find an alternative. However, as of right now in my first purchase, this has given me a relief I didn't think possible. Almost every other moisturizer I've used especially right now while my skin is kinda going through it, has irritated me more until this one. I love it. The only thing I could ask for is a thicker or more nourishing barrier cream to go along with it for people who are using retinoids, because even with it, my dry skin gets very oily using retinoids because its not hydrated enough and overproducing oil to compensate.

Good, with a few caveats

Nice, but not quite right for me.

This is a nice moisturizer. I found that one to two pumps are sufficient to cover the whole face and neck (I take all skincare down to my chest). When first applied, the moisturizer doesn't feel particularly hydrating. I am a big fan of water break "juicy" gel creams and was hoping for something similar. This product has a gel texture with a non greasy, silky, almost dry hand feel. After wearing for a few days I noticed that by mid-day, or the next morning, that this moisturizer felt heavy and occlusive on my skin. I was surprised because it doesn't feel hydrating to me, personally. I am in my late 40's with sensitive, combination (oily nose and chin, normal-dry everywhere else) skin. While trying it out for the week, it did not pill with my sunscreen or skin tint. I do think this is a nice moisturizer, but it's just not right for me. It left me feeling a little sweaty/oily, but looking dehydrated by end of the day (or in the morning). I personally find that the Tidy Pores Serum feels more hydrating than Super Sensa Moisturizer and prefer to layer it with a different gel cream for an all day plumping effect. Tidy Pores is a phenomenal product.
