“1 - Not much is needed to cover the face. If you use too much, you will notice as your face gets sticky and feels bogged down.
2 - Very hydrating and this lasts for the entire day.
3 - Enhances glowy skin
4 - Works well over serums and under sunscreen as long as you don't use too much moisturiser as mentioned in point 1
5 - I would probably make it a pump product as you don't need much per application + it's easy to get the amount you put on wrong. (It's fine after you get used to knowing how much to put on)
6 - My skin is acne-prone but you probably can't notice from the pictures as it's improved massively; I use Tretinoin every night and have used retinoids for the last couple of years. I have also had a dose of Isotretinoin in the past to clear my initial acne. I think due to the 'heaviness' of the product, it should probably be advertised to dry skinned individuals or to be used overnight as I believe it could probably cause breakouts in people like me. I haven't had any breakouts but an acne-prone individual who doesn't use an active in the morning and night for the acne like I do would more than likely get breakouts from using this product.”
“My skin feels plumper and less dehydrated. With using this moisturiser over 2 weeks, I can see improvement with my rosacea. The texture seems thicker and has a firming affect on my skin, but it melts in and doesn't feel greasy at all, very pleased so far”
“I absolutely love the new flawless moisturiser intense! I started out unsure if my skin would like it as the consistency is very different to my favourite original flawless moisturiser from Dr Sam. I would say it's a thicker cream, rather than the lotion type texture of the original flawless moisturiser. I have oily skin and am acne prone so was worried how I would fair with a such an intensive moisturising product. I'm pleased to report that my skin has never looked or felt better! The redness in my skin has gone, which I never really associated as part of the problem as to why I never felt my skin looked even in tone. Before and after photos have really highlighted this for me. The moisturiser has definitely helped me tolerate my active steps more and as such has contributed to less redness in my skin. Even though this product is an intense version of my beloved flawless moisturiser, it doesn't sit heavy on the skin or leave any oily residue which was an initial concern of mine. It absorbs in effortlessly and really sinks into the skin well. It is a surprisingly good base for makeup (along with sunscreen) and has held up well even during the recent heatwave! I didn't think I would ever like any moisturiser as much as the original flawless moisturiser, but I'm definitely a huge fan of this new intense version. I thought my skin care routine couldn't be improved as I use all Dr Sam products and have done religiously since their launch; Dr Sam products are the gold standard in our household and are always recommend to family and friends. I certainly plan to keep this in my routine. This is the product I didn't know I needed, but has made such a big difference to skin. Thank you Dr Sam!”
“One of if not the best moisturisers I have used! I struggle with dryness whilst using a retinoid, so a good moisturiser is always needed. Flawless Moisturiser Intense is rich and hydrating, without feeling heavy or greasy on the face, unlike other rich moisturisers (which occasionally break me out). There is an immediate calming effect which lasts. I have noticed a difference in my skin's tolerance to stronger retinoids as well as overall hydration. Most definitely recommend it to those looking for a great moisturiser.”
“At this time of year with the change of season, my skin becomes very dry and reactive. Flawless intense has definitely helped to replenish moisture and improve my skin barrier compared with my usual flawless moisturiser. I will definitely buy this instead for autumn and winter when it is launched.”
“Any initial concerns the Intense version of the Flawless Moisturiser would be too heavy for my skin twice a day were banished very quickly. The moisturiser absorbs easily and left my skin feeling soft and fresh. Make up went on easily too.”
“I really liked the moisturiser, I felt it gave my skin a nice glow . I think I would probably only use it in the morning just becouse I feel that the nightly serum is enough for me at night ,although saying this now winter is on its way I may find it better as my skin gets drier in winter”
