Smells Luscious, But Heavy on My Skin
Korres makes some exceptional products. I found their "Wild Rose 24-Hour Moisturizing and Brightening Cream" a little disappointing. It smells wonderful (I am drawn to all things rose). But it is too heavy under my makeup, and I don't have oily skin. It is also lacking an SPF factor. After using this on and off for months, it did soften my skin, but there was no real brightening effect. Beca...read moreuse of the weight, I only used it at night. I prefer a moisturizer I can wear under makeup, one which absorbs into my complexion well and one which I don't even realize I am wearing.This review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 0 of 0 people said helpful

For dry dry skin only.
I have a sample of this and have given it a try because my skin is dry and sensitive from Accutane. PROS: Leaves less of a shine than many other moisturizers (but still slight). Smells absolutely wonderful (like roses). Hasn't caused breakouts (although Accutane may be more responsible for that!) Moisturizes well all day long. CONS: SPF is rather low. Can cause a whitish cast that must be rubbed i...read moren if you use too much. Very expensive ($32.50 for 1. 4 fl oz.) Overall, a nice product.

Also, just a warning to combo/oily skinned gals--I would not recommend this for you.This review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 1 of 1 people said helpful

Great winter lotion
I love using this Korres lotion in the winter instead of my normal Yogurt lotion. The Wild Rose lotion is much thicker and creamier - perfect for dull, dry winter skin. It absorbs well, but I tend to use it as a night cream instead because it doesn't absorb quickly. A little bit goes a long way, so a jar will last through fall and winter. I do have a tendency to break out, but so far no issues ...read morewith this lotion and I have used it for the last couple of winters. I sent some to my friend who live in Michigan, and she loves this stuff for windburn (she is a runner). She uses it after she is done running and washed the sunscreen off her face, since she doesn't use this as the SPF is so low. The scent is really nice as well.This review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 1 of 2 people said helpful
