Darker Skin Tones Face Cream

Absolutely adore this cream. I used to use La Mer, which I still like in the winter since it's much heavier but now I'm considering giving the Sturm rich cream a try this year. It speaks volumes that Dr. Sturm considers that darker skin tones have different needs, therefore, different ingredients. It's light, and absorbs quickly and although it is quite pricey, I am willing to put money towards an aesthetics doctor that has people of color in mind. My skin has never looked more even and bright!

I have light skin with freckles, hyperpigmentation, and some redness. I don’t even understand how this works, but it does. I have tried everything under the sun…this works!

During the summer when my skin tends to become darker in tone this is my holy grail cream. Its not so heavy and its just sits on the skin perfectly with adequate moisture. I use this in the morning as soon as I wake up or at night as a last step. It made my skin supper nice and supple.

this cream was at first irritating, but my skin is extremely sensitive and takes time to warm up to products. now, this cream is the best one ive found to stay hydrated overnight when i use my retinol serum which is super dehydrating. I absolutely love it. will be purchasing for as long as barbara sturm keeps it in stock.

This is a beautiful cream and a little goes a long way. I've been using it for over 2 months both day and night, after cleansing, toning, and serums; and follow up with the Sturm Glow Drops. It sinks into the skin very nicely and moisturizes without feeling greasy or like there's a layer over the skin. For reference, I am a black woman with combo, acne-prone skin. The Darker Skin Tones line has totally changed my skin--brightened, I have fewer blackheads, my moisture barrier is significantly improved, my skin is more hydrated and plump. But don't be deterred if you aren't a POC - Dr. Sturm states that the line is for anyone who wants to address inflammation, and brighten (the line is intended to meet the unique needs of darker skin tones but can be used by anyone wishing to address these issues). I have also used the Sturm Face Cream (regular) and prefer the texture of the Darker Skin Tones Face Cream as it sinks into the skin better and feels a tad less oily to me.

This cream is the cream of the crop! Been a VIB/ Rouge for a decade and tried everything, including other brands in this price range. Hands down, the best. I also used her regular cream and brightening lotion. I did some reaearch and realized that this cream is basically for every skin tone, including lighter skin tones like mine, it is simply a bar none machine when it comes evening the skin tone in general.

Quick absorbing hydrating yet lightweight great for nighttime for my oily to normal skin.

its expensive but I decided to give it a go. I'm glad I did. I love how my skin absorbs this cream and how my skin feels the next morning. It feels smooth and breathable.

Best moisturizer I’ve ever used. Have repurchased 3x.
