Philosophy Hope in a Jar: A Review

I was in Korea a few weeks ago and because of the cold weather, my skin became really tight and dry. My usual Vitamin C & E serum was not enough at that time. So I went to the local mall and looked for a moisturizer. I'm familiar with Philosophy products so I bought Philosophy Hope in a Jar.

First impression was it had quite a strong smell, kind of herb-like. Since it was not really cheap, I still applied it on my face. It was ok; it did moisturize my face which relieved the tight and dry feeling. It also didn't make me break out, which is a good thing. However I was quite bothered by the smell. When I got back home, I felt that I don't need too much moisturizing anymore so I stopped using the product and went back to my usual Vitamin C & E serum.

My verdict: It is a good moisturizer but I will not use it anymore.
