I’ve been looking for a moisturizer since I found out I have rosacea. During the moisturizer sale, I ordered couple different ones. This one is amazing. I don’t even reach for a different moisturizer. I have to make myself use a different one so it doesn’t go to waste. I will repurchase this one over and over!! Amazing!!

Customer reviews
So far pretty good ! Nice level of moisturizer- also smooth with a bit of a glow . Has not broken me out . Seems to improve skin texture . I’m on day about 7 of use . Would consider other products in their line as well !
As someone who has dry skin that can get oily by the end of the day, this is the perfect moisturizer for day time. It provides enough moisture after cleansing to tackle any dryness, absorbs well, and sits nicely under makeup.
A popular dermatologist on TT and YT recommended this because of the ingredients and peptides but it just didn’t work for me. I will stick with the purple cerave.
Zero complaints about this product, but the best thing about it is the packaging for sanitary and aesthetic reasons. There are better moisturizers for dry skin out there for comparable price point (EltaMD Skin Barrier Renewal Complex), but I bought this out of convenience in a pinch. It was very friendly to my skin, didn’t break it out or irritate so no doubt this is high quality and clean. I won’t repurchase because I need something a little more moisturizing, but if you’re just a little bit dry, it’s worth a try.
I am acne prone but skincare obsessed. I’m often dehydrated from my actives and this Moisturizer adds moisture immediately upon contact. It’s super hydrating but dries creamy. Literally perfect!
Peptides: check. Ceramides: check. I always look for science backed ingredients. This moisturizer is the most effective I’ve found thus far at Sephora. I’m a daily tretinoin user and this really keeps the dry patches away. I find myself touching my face periodically because my skin has this baby soft feel to it that I haven’t experienced with any other product. Good job Lion Pose!
I have been using this cream for about two weeks, and I have acne-prone skin. So far, it hasn't caused any breakouts or new pimples. During the first four days of use, I experienced some stinging and tingling, but that sensation has since disappeared. Now, I really enjoy using it. I love the consistency and how well it absorbs into my skin. I think I need more time to determine how effectively it works to even out my skin tone.
I had read that peptides are good for skin firming. I did my research on this and took a chance. I am so glad I did. If I don't see a positive change very quickly, I won't buy a product again or I return it. This is a keeper. After a few days, I didn't expect my face to be remarkably firmer, but it definitely looked refreshed. I also used it under my (very sensitive) eyes-and got the same effect. But the packaging is frustrating: I always ended up squeezing out too much because of the way the push-down top & you can't tell when you're running low on it.
I LOVE this product!! The packaging is unique and stunning. As for the cream itself, the consistency is perfect—rich, smooth, not greasy, and so easy to apply. It’s exactly what my skin needs!
