Hydra Essentiel Gel Cream - Hydratační chladivý gel

Not cooling and sticky feeling afterwards. Would not purchase again.

Absorbs quickly and amazing light scent!

Amazing!! Skin absorb this gel in right away!! And the scent is suberb and goes away when applied. Foundation applies smoothly. Use this with an additive AND a serum and it works great.

Great for Dry Skin

I don't understand why a bunch of people are saying this is strongly scented. I barely smell anything...I know the creme has a smell but this gel doesn't have much fragrance. I love this moisturizer for my dry skin, it feels so good. It really is cooling.

It was okay

It feels hydrate and cooling during the summer, I can see oily skin loving it. For me this wasn’t hydrating enough on my combination skin; most of the time I like use it as primer for makeup lol

Hydratant mais trop parfumé

Je suis une personne qui a la peau mixte, sensible et déshydraté J'ai acheté ce produit au printemps et il hydrate bien mais il contient trop de parfum et c’est un gelé de couleur bleu clair. Le colorant j’en ai pas besoin mais l’hydratation oui. C’est pourquoi je lui donne un 3 étoiles. Et je ne suis pas trop fan du sillicone ça laisse une belle peau douce mais ça reste un irritant pour les peau sensible. Je suis très étonnée que ce produit malgré ses compositions chimiques ne ma pas donné de reaction cutané. C’est sûrement des ingrédients de bonne qualité. J'ai essayé le sérum hydra-essentiel + Gel sorbet Hydra-essentiel

Nice moisturizer for hot summer days

I really enjoy using this one during summer. It provides cooling effect on the skin, therefore this is something I would not use in winter. However, I feel that it hydrates my skin sufficiently and keeps my oily skin under control.

Keeps my face hydrated

I have dry skin and this keeps my face feeling fresh and hydrated.

Deeply unpleasant texture, overwhelming fragrance

I purchased this on a whim and ended up being disappointed, especially given the price. I did find it relatively hydrating. However, the fragrance is incredibly strong and sticks around for a long time. I don't mind some minor fragrance in skincare, but this is ridiculous. Worse, though, is the texture. Instead of a smooth gel like the belif moisturizer or Clinique, it has a very weird almost grainy texture. It feels like it is going to pill up on the skin, but ultimately smooths out. Instead of absorbing completely, it leaves a sticky film-like feeling on the skin. It's just deeply unpleasant, which is so surprising from an expensive product when other companies have done gel moisturizers so well.

Just not for me. Didn’t like the texture and consistency. Leaves my skin feeling like it has a film on it afterwards

Love for the spring and summer

I have been using this cream during the spring and summer for over 2 years on my acne-prone and dehydrated skin. It is just hydrating enough without leaving me oily. During fall and winter, I use the slightly thicker version of this cream for normal to dry skin, as it provides more moisture. For use morning and night, the jar lasts me a few months. The price for the quantity is very good. I also like the Caudalie sorbet, but it is the same price for 10ml less.

My skin became less oily during the day though it may lack a bit of hydrating effect. The texture is a little weird comparing to other moisturizer but once u get used to it, it'll be great for those with super oily skin.

HOLY GRAIL

Got this as a sample together with the Clarins Toner. Wasn’t expecting it to work wonders until after 2 days of using it. My face got a significant glow & got smoother than ever! I used to have oily skin but since using this - my face became less oily by the day. The cool effect on the face is the best too! You won’t regret getting this product! :)
