Crazy Review :: LUSH Imperialis Moisturizer

First of all, I love this moisturizer!  Even though as you read this review you may not realize it...

This stuff is very lightweight, you can hardly tell it's on your skin.  However, when you touch your hand to your cheek, you can feel it there.  This may not really make sense... I feel like I'm bad at explaining this.  You can't feel it when it's sitting on your skin, but when you go to touch your skin, you can feel it there.

This stuff blends beautifully, with just a teeny bit going a really long way.

I haven't noticed a reduction in my oiliness and now that it has started to get drier and cooler out, I have had a couple little dry areas on my face, and I haven't seen a real improvement for those spots either.

I haven't seen my oiliness get any worse, so I guess that's always good right? :)

Right now, you're probably like, what is this moisturizer doing for you then?  Why do you even like it?  And I say... just the fact that it feels so lightweight and undetectable, I love it to pieces!  Every other moisturizer I've tried have just been too heavy and sticky feeling and just make me feel gross and already oily, but this stuff is just a dream to wear.

It has a light pink color to it.  It smells wonderful, but the scent doesn't linger on your skin, which is great since I can be sensitive to strong scents at times.  I'm not such a fan of the packaging.  It doesn't seem very sanitary to dip my finger in there to get product out.  The formula is somewhat watery, so if you tilt the container for even a split second, the product will transfer onto the lid and into the little ridges around the lid, causing a little pain in the butt when you open it the next time.  I would not want to travel with this particular container, just putting that out there.

PROS
lightweight
blends well

CONS
can feel sticky to the touch
hasn't reduced oiliness
hasn't improved dry spots

I realize this review doesn't make much sense.  I have more CONS than PROS, yet I still love this stuff and would recommend it.  Maybe I'm just a crazy chick.  I still hope this was helpful to somebody out there! :)

Thanks for reading!
Love,
Alaina
