The Truth According to TotalBeauty.com Reviewers:
"It did nothing for my parched skin and has a stinky smell like sweaty socks!" says a reader. Another concurred: "I totally dislike this moisturizer! It smells awful and makes me extremely teary, even if I use it FAR away from my eyes!" Others claim that it's stinky, but insist that it works, "when you first take a whiff of this stuff, it'll probably make you want to puke. But after you get over that, this is a great moisturizer. I saw a noticeable difference within 2 weeks." And, one reader contends that it "makes my skin look fabulous and glow. Although it provides a lot of moisture, it doesn't feel too heavy. Only way to make it better would be to add SPF, and maybe do something about the smell."
Bottom Line: May offer "hope" for some � if they can stand the stink.
