Hi guys! How have you been? My today's review its going to be about my HG moisturizer and I just LOVE it. I bought the whole set during Christmas Sale which was really worth it.

Packaging
The product comes in a glass jar. The glass jar is fairly heavy, which is not travel friendly. It doesn’t come with a spatula which is not so hygienic.

Texture & Fragrance
It comes in a thick gel texture which easily absorbs into the skin. I love the refreshing fragrant, though I don’t really know how to describe that.
Application
- Use every morning and / or evening on cleansed and toned skin.
- Place one dose into the palm of the hand
- Using both hands, smooth over the face in an outward pattern starting from the centre. Finish by the neck. Avoid eye contour.
My Impression
I love how moisturized my skin feels when I use this product. This is especially true when I’m in an air conditioned environment for a long time. My skin doesn’t feel tight even hours after application. I also do not get any break outs from using this which is amazing for my sensitive skin. Since I only use this product in the day, it lasted me for 8 months. Even though it’s pricey, it’s worth the price for me. It's my new HG moisturizer and I would purchase this again!
