Today I'm going to be sharing my thoughts on the brand new HydraForce Hydra-Protective Comforting Creme from Lise Watier! I received this lovely set to try out and review for you guys from Glamsense!
This product retails for $45 here in Canada and you can find this at your local London Drugs or you can get it online from their website here
Lets start off with the packaging! Isn't it so cute? Literally reminds me of a bubble hence the hashtag #getinthebubble
The smell of it is light but I can't exactly pinpoint what the exact scent is! it kind of smells fresh (if that's even a scent). The texture of this product is a creme that just melts into your skin like butter on a pile of mash potatoes. It also has a cooling sensation when you touch it, which I enjoy especially when I'm half asleep getting ready in the morning. I find that this glides onto the skin with ease and once it's absorbed into the skin it literally makes your skin feel soft and almost silky! I also love that this gives me a light glow like a lit from within look which I LOVE!

First I tested this on my hand to see how this little device worked. After that I moved onto my T-Zone area to see how moisturized it was and I was amazed! This was able to moisturize my skin fairly well without making me look or feel greasy which is always something I look for in a moisturizer! Now onto my cheeks this is where my skin has dry patches! I have oily-combo/acne prone skin so I was pleasantly surprised that this was able to help lock in the moisture with the chilly weather. Here are my results from the first day I started using this and the last day:

I feel that this product is geared those with normal-dry skin as it states on their website. However if you have a similar skin type to mine and your skin tends to get drier during the cold winters then you may want to consider trying this product out!
Pros
- Lightweight feel on the skin
- Nice cooling sensation upon application
- Didn't break me out
- Moisturizes skin without being greasy
- Nice light scent
Cons
- Expensive
- Wish it came with a spatula (for sanitary reasons)
FINAL THOUGHTS
This product has been great for keeping my skin well hydrated and looking lively! I feel that this will work for those who have a similar skin type to mine in the colder months. I love that this is hydrating without weighing my skin down and making me look like an oily mess, it's literally the perfect moisturizer for my oily-combo skin during this season! Although the packaging of this product is so cute I do wish that it came with a spatula, or came in a squeezable tube since this is in a tub and I don't like dipping my fingers into it.
Rating 4/5
What are some products you like to use on your skin in the colder months? Let me know in the comments! I'd love to hear about it! (:
I'd also like to take this moment and thank Glamsense for sending me this product to review!
