I really do have dry skin... even worse earlier this year i had shingles on my neck, and after that all cleared up it left my skin was very very dry. I tried everything...Most products made me break out, and smelled like i was going out with the ladies for a night of bingo (i'm only 28). I was introduced to this product by a friend who was also tired of looking at my dry zombie looking patch on my neck. It worked. It didn't have some horrible scent, also didn't feel like having jelly smeared on my neck and face. It really did work after the first time i used it, and my skin keeps getting better every day i use it. When i run out i plan on getting more.

I started using it just about four weeks ago, as summer weather turned to fall. I knew I needed a moisturizer I could use daily and didn’t really want to spend a small fortune on the cream my dermatologist sells. I am entirely pleased with my experience and congratulate TIA on having made yet another wonderful discovery: a terrific, well-priced line that does what it says. The texture is almost surprisingly light and it absorbs with a smooth, matte finish. it worked flawlessly under makeup and after a couple of weeks of morning-and-night use, I was very happy with how smooth, healthy, and well-hydrated my face seemed. As the weather gets colder and drier this winter, I can imagine I’ll want to use something a bit richer at least occasionally as a night cream. But I’m 55, and my skin is dry to begin with. La Vie Celeste’s Day and Night Cream will remain part of my arsenal and I know I will continue to rely on it as an everyday solution.

Hi Lucy...I am sorry that the cream didnt' work for you. While this product is unlikely to cause breakouts, we realize that everyone is different, and any cream, regardless of the manufacturer, can potentially cause a reation in some people. I do want to assure you that we have checked our inventory at our office, and also with our chemist at his facility, and there is absolutely no evidence of product separation in the face cream. Our chemist is highly regarded in his field and the utmost care is taken in formulating the La Vie Celeste products. I do wish you the best in finding a face cream that works for you...Best, Teri / La Vie Celeste.

I am a face cream junkie-tired everything and recently had a procedure done similar to fraxel for sun damage,my face was on fire after this procedure and nothing would calm it down but LA VIE CELESTE face cream.I tried Oily of Olay,Estee Lauder,Ciinique,,Lancome and anything I could grab since I was in such discomfort, washed all of them off and scraped the remains of the jar of La Vie Celeste Day and Night face cream and immediately it calmed my skin so I was able to sleep.This was the end of the jar and the consistency was perfect The next day it was soft and healing beautifully.
Needless to say, I have always kept it stocked and think this line is fabulous.I have sensitive skin and most creams irritate it and believe me I have tried them all.

Broke out while on this product so I had to stop using it. The consistency wasn't very smooth either- it seemed like the water and oil phase were on the verge of separating. However, when applied to the skin, it was smooth and thick.
