However if youre desperately in need of deep hydration, youll want to give this one a whirl.
However, they do both melt into the skin and leave a dewy finish.

Translation: When your skin produces more collagen, it is firmer, plumper, and more elastic.
Texture-wise, the fragrance-free formula has a rich, cushiony feel that leaves a velvety, non-greasy finish.

My Chronically Dry Skin
Over the years, my skin has been anything but cooperative.
That being said, chronic dryness is a real issue for me.

My ideal situation is something thats nottoothick; I find that evenly absorbs into my skin better.

My first impression was that it looked very similar to a delicious creamy glaze or frosting thats been melted.
The way it seamlessly massages into an even finish is actually quite mesmerizing.
As for the packaging thats where the brand saves you money.

Each and every time my skin feels firmer, and I swear my wrinkles are less obvious.
For me, its the unique icing-like feel that takes the cake (no pun intended).
