Go-to moisturizer for years
I always come back to this moisturizer because of how lightweight and comfortable it feels on the skin while hydrating so nicely. Also leaves a super natural looking glowy finish. Works well on top of serums and underneath makeup as well. Such a hidden gem!

An all-around great, light moisturizer
The scent is citrus-y but it is very, very light; it dissipates completely within minutes. I use this only in the daytime, on top of C E Ferulic. It leaves a slight dewiness, like a subtle nacre of a pearl, which I happen to like. It is not so shiny that it accentuates fine lines. I go outside with a mirror under the sun and assess how products affect the appearance of my skin texture, and this product passes. The bottle is just over 3 ounces, which is generous and enhances value. I put Biore Watery Essence SPF 50 over the Peaches, and they work extremely well together. They kind of bond to each other and the dewiness is still mild. I sweat a lot in the summer on my face, so I wonder how Peaches will perform. But I think it can't get any better for a truly lightweight, gentle moisturizer. Very pleased with this purchase.

Wonderful formula, questionable packaging?
Trying to find a moisturizer for my combination skin and so far so good! Very light weight and not sticky. Has a very light citrus smell but not bothersome. Will probably continue to purchase because my skin seems to respond well to this company’s products. I don't like that the product looks… empty or used upon opening my package. The tube just feels half empty… opened it and there’s a seal so I guess it wasn’t used. Just wish they filled the tube or something.

Feels refreshing, but not for super sensitive skin
I wanted to love this, but my rosacea prone skin is just too sensitive for it. Pretty sure it has caused some minor break outs, as well. A blemish or 2 seem to pop up shortly after using (I really haven’t had much of a problem lately with blemishes, and this is the only thing that had changed in my skin care routine). It also may be making my rosacea flare more, making my face appear redder. It feels great going on, very refreshing, but I did notice the tiniest bit of stinging, which tells me it is irritating my super sensitive skin. The smell is ok, but not as amazing as some made it out to be. I don’t think my skin would tolerate using it daily, I currently only use it once a twice a week, before bed. I love how cooling it is. It is great for layering under, when you need a little boost of hydration and is great for summer. It is on the much lighter side, as far as hydration goes, being that it is a gel.
