Useful if: you want a final step cream rather than a mist or lightweight serum.
What is the texture like?
Dr Althea describes it as a moisture rich cream that spreads smoothly and absorbs into the skin. It contains caprylic/capric triglyceride, glycerin, fatty alcohols, silicones and shea butter, so it is positioned as a more substantial final layer rather than a watery gel moisturiser.
The ingredient list also contains bergamot fruit oil. If you know your skin is sensitive to fragranced or aromatic ingredients, check the current ingredient list before buying.
Where does it fit in a routine?
Use it at the final moisturising step after any toner and serum. In the morning, sunscreen comes afterwards. If you already use a richer moisturiser that suits your skin, the practical question is whether you want to replace that cream rather than add another layer on top.
