For the last couple of weeks, I’ve been using the Fresh Lotus Youth Preserve Moisturizer With Multi-Action Super Lotus as my temporary night cream after my Fresh Lotus Youth Preserve Dream Face Cream Super Lotus Night Recovery ran out and Fresh was out of stock. I have to say that using this cream was kind of like a rollercoaster and took some time to get the hang of. Sadly, just as I felt like I was in the flow of things, it finished. To find out my thoughts on the Fresh Lotus Youth Preserve Moisturizer With Multi-Action Super Lotus, read on.
What I Liked
At first, there was nothing to like about this moisturiser. From my perspective, it was too different from the Lotus Youth Preserve Dream Face Cream Super Lotus Night Recovery for me to appreciate its own unique qualities. That said, as the nights went by, I slowly started to see just how great this cream.
- Thick
- This cream is super thick, especially compared to the Super Lotus Night Recovery – which definitely took some getting used to. Despite the fact that this cream was quite thick, it wasn’t overpowering or smothering
- Pleasant smell
- Just like the night cream, this had a really love smell. This was quite subtle, so I would definitely recommend this cream to anyone looking for something light.
- Soft skin
- I noticed that after a week of using this cream, my face was baby smooth in the morning.
What I Disliked
Like I mentioned earlier, at first, there wasn’t really a lot to like about this cream. Even though I eventually came around to enjoying this cream, there were a couple of things that I still didn’t enjoy.
- Sticky residue
- The very first thing I noticed about this cream on my face was the sticky/tacky feeling it left on my face. As a general point, I don’t like products that leave my face feeling sticky, especially in the evening when I feel like product is more likely to stick to my pillow instead of soaking up into my skin.
- Thicker than I liked
- Yes, I did like that this cream was thick, I prefer creams that have a little bit of slip to them, as this makes them feel like they are able to sink deep enough.
- Didn’t penetrate enough
- I felt like this cream just sat on the skin and didn’t penetrate the layers of my skin, in the same way that the Super Lotus Night Recovery cream did. I also felt that because of this, even though my face was left feeling soft, it also felt a bit dry.
Will I Buy It Again?
Honestly, yes and no. As much as I did grow to like this cream, it’s just not the Lotus Youth Preserve Dream Face Cream Super Lotus Night Recovery. Luckily the Super Lotus Night Recovery came back in stock so I was able to rebuy it. That said, I can see myself buying this cream for somebody else, and I can definitely see myself using it again – but only if I receive it as a free gift or sample to use in emergencies.
