Results the first time I used it.
I am a self-confessed product dabbler. If it has a main-brand and is available in the UK, I've probably tried it at some point or another... and I've been sorely dissapointed by 90% of the products out there.So, it was with a great degree of skepticism that I bought and tried this product - thinking the ratings and reviews can't possibly be right.First off - the pumping mechanism IS awkward. You have to first take out a tiny little plastic bit and throw it away in the nozzle. Then you push down on a sort of dense 'button-area' - I say this loosly because if you just push down anyold place on the pump's dispensor top it won't work. There's a precise spot.It doesn't eject much - but you do not need much. A small amount - about the size of a 20p was enough to do my whole face (including my super-oily T-zone) and neck.It has an ultra-thick consistency. I must admit, part of me recoiled at the thought of slathering that crap on.A deep breath and then I smeared the gloopy compound all over my face.I expected it to be tacky, sticky, and to go to bed with it sticking to my hair and my pillow.Nope. It absorbed - and by absorbed, I mean it ABSORBED. Like my skin was a sponge. It even seemed to plump up. It felt a little damp to the touch, but in the kind of way that you've just spritzed your face with a nice cool hydrating mist, rather than slathered-goop-and-pores-are-suffocating.Now I do NOT have sensitve skin, however if I over moisturise, I find that I break out. Simple as. So after slathering this on, going to bed, I woke up to find my skin's texture HAD improved again overnight - my pores seemed diminished (and I have large pores sadly!) Thinking it to be a one-off I then slathered it on again after washing my face in the morning, THEN put my makeup on over.If this had been my usual, my face would have felt like the makeup was sliding off. This oddly seemed to give my makeup staying power, though the powder really seemed to stick in - and felt slightly cakey - but I realise I was using my usual amount when I should have cut back (having done so, it makes a huge difference!)My skin didn't feel oily and I didn't need to retouch my powder. Nighttime I cleansed, and re-moisturised. THe next day - I WENT MAKEUP FREE.Yes. That's right. Makeup free. I had a lovely glow, and my skin felt super soft. And I've noticed my HANDS feeling softer too from it. It's a gift that just keeps on giving. I also went makeup free to see how long my skin would feel dewy and damp - it was still going at 1pm (applied at 07:15) but by 3pm (my next bathroom break!) it had faded. However no oil from my T-zone.This product has made me a believer - I can't wait to try the rest of the range. I should be able to bin my Ren, avon, Murad, Aurelia, and Lush products in one fell sweep. (Plus all the others that have never worked but I keep around for one reason or another).

So pleased to know I have the same product for mich ...
Bought this cream after using another retinol cream off amazon. The first brand I tried had quadrupled in price for some reason in space of a month so thought Id give this a go, only to see that the ingredients are EXACTLY the same. So pleased to know I have the same product for mich cheaper price, and Ive foubd another brand thats 50ml, so 20 more than this brand with again the exact same ingredients advertised. I assume these creams are all made by same manufacturer for different brands, so shop around and check ingredients. You will be surprised at the price variations for the exact same ingredients. As for actual product, haven’t used it long enough to see difference in fine lines yet but its a great day and night moisturiser especially if used after hyaluronic acid serum. Only downside is no spf, so maybe use only for night routine. Can cause breakout at first while skin gets used to retinol but the long term effects and preventative properties are worth it imo

Yes, I will be sticking with this brand!
I love this, I've been using it for a few weeks now and from day one I saw a difference to my skin. It looks fresher, more glowing and definitely less wrinkles on my forehead. I use it on top of a serum in the morning and at night. I have sensitive skin prone to allergies and I have had no problem at all in that regard. I also have a greasy t-zone and it has notclogged my pores or caused any breakouts. The cream is thick but it is not heavy at all and works into the skin really easily. My face feels lovely when I've put it on and I have seen a marked improvement. And I've had lovely comments from friends too. I am 45, I have moisturised my face since being ateenager and rarely change my brand, but I like this so much I am going to continue using it for as long as I can afford it! My only criticisms are the pump dispenser is not the best and I would like a bit of fragrance in the cream, but they are minor complaints and don't affect the results

Really very good indeed!!!
This is a great product, along with the other products from PurOrganica, I also use the face serum and eye cream. I have noticed a considerable difference since using these products. I'm not saying that they are a miracle cure for wrinkles but I have been very pleased with the results. I am a 46 year old working Mother with two teenage girls and suffer from chronic auto immune diseases among other ailments (but I won't go into all of them, it's far too boring and I'm fed up with it all) and suffer from lack of sleep. I have tried many creams and potions over the years as my skin has suffered due to all sorts of different prescription drugs etc including some products from a well known chemist brand (rhymes with "Coots") but have found these to be far superior. I think, for the price (although I have noticed a slight increase in these since starting to purchase the products) they really are excellent value for money. I will certainly be ordering again. Oh, by the way, I do not seem to have a problem with the dispenser, I use my thumb to push down which gives a larger area of pressure and the right amount is dispensed each time. One other thing I would say, the retinol cream comes in a blue plastic bottle and the serum and eye cream come in a much more expensive clear glass and green label bottle which is much prettier for the dressing table. PurOrganica, as OCD as it sounds, can we please have the same packaging for all three items!!!
