This is the highest SPF cream I've found in The Body Shop, and I bought this as everyday-wear suncream for the early come summer in Toronto. I didn't give too much expectation to it at beginning. What I need is simply high enough SPF and not too much oily hopefully (I experienced many facial cream with SPF were very oily and some caused breakout). Out of surprise, this cream is not greasy and makes skin glowes! It worth the $20 money I had paid for. Good job!
For better resule, I suggest to apply a hydrating serum before applying the VC cream.

smooth hair and works great
Date:March 21, 2012
As other reviewers said, this brush works great. I use it to brush loose powder or mineral powder foundation. The hair is soft and smooth, and the bundle of the hair is not too tight as Extra Virgin Minerals Foundation Brush, so it works gently. It sweeps powders evenly over face and leaves a nature look finish.

A little bit dry
Date:March 21, 2012
This mask cleans skin, leaves skin soft and smooth, but a little bit dry duirng apply, easy to wash. BUT, sensitive skin user should avoid to use it.
Developed to give sensitive skin extra care, our gentle, velvety aloe night cream nourishes, softens and soothes. Use overnight to restore moisture and calm the skin.
This is my HG facial cream. I picked it after I did so many research about good skin care for pregnancy. It contains no paraben, no alcohol, no fragrance, and no artificial color (should I mention that the night cream's ingredient is better than the aloe day cream). Surprisedly, it also works really really really good! It is a rich but light cream, 24-HR moisturizing, calm and comfort skin, not greasy at all, leave very beautiful and healthy glow. It also performs great under makeup. Although it is a night cream, I use it as day cream too. And recently, my skin became sensitive due to the weather changing, my cheek is easy to be itchy and red. I just apply the aloe night cream over itchy area, instanly, the redness gone and skin is magical relieved! My husband loves it too, he use it as after shaving cream. I just couldn't tell how great the aloe night cream is! Love love love it! Hight recommend! (But not recommend to oily and combination skin for summer.)

gentle but greasy
Date:March 21, 2012
I have normal skin, but sensitive during weather changing. This moisture is light and gentle, but not moisturizing good enough. Skin will feels slight dehydrated no long later after application. It leaves healthy glow when just apply, but after 1 or 2 hours, skin looks greasy, nose looks oily and cause me bits of acnes sometimes. Not recommend using under makeup. Anyways, it is still much better than Clinique Super Defense with SPF 25.
Developed for skin that needs extra-gentle care, our gel-crème has been tested by ophthalmologists. Use daily to hydrate and soothe the delicate skin around your eye area.
This my favorite eye cream by so far. It gently moisturize eyes so well. Comfortable to wear, even rub into eyes occasionally. Perfect to wear under makeup. And compare to the VE eye cream with the same value, Aloe eye defense has hygeian container. Works on pufiness, not for wrinkle, but that's good enough! Highly recommend!

moisturizes skin
Date:March 21, 2012
I bought the cococa butter during pregnancy ideally to prevent stretch marks. It didn't work too much on stretch marks actually, but it did moisturize skin very well, and relieved itchiness around tummy. I dont recommend it as stretch mark cream, but recommend it as a good moisturing body butter.
Massage our cooling peppermint foot cream onto hard skin and heels at night to soothe and refresh your feet. Infused with English peppermint essential oil, our minty fresh foot cream comes to the rescue of tired, dry feet to keep you on your toes.
I have extremely dry and cracky heels. This foot cream save my heel. It smells nice and leaves feet skin in moisture condition. I usually file feet first, apply the foot rescue when feet is still wet, and wear cotton socks during sleep. When wake up in the next day, my heel is soft and smooth, and cracks are relieved much better.

too rough, painful, but good job
Date:March 21, 2012
I bought this item for face, but finally use it to exfoliate over body. It is way too rough to use over face. Not recommend to sensitive skin.
