Curology Cream Moisturizer, Rich Hydrating Face Lotion for Dry Skin, with Shea Butter and Hyaluronic Acid, 1.7 fl oz

Perfection!
This is hands down the best facial moisturizer I’ve ever used. It’s smooth, light weight without feeling greasy, moisturizing, and it lasts! It even seems to help my rosacea when I use it consistently. It leaves my face feeling soft and healthy. I’ve also purchased it for my Mom and Sister, I couldn’t keep the secret to myself!

Great moisturizer, but device is sometimes defective
I have been on the hunt for a non-comedogenic, affordable, and hydrating moisturizer for quite some time now. I took a course of Accutane 7 years ago, but as I entered my mid-twenties, I started to develop hormonal acne. I used to have oily skin, but after Accutane I developed combination oily/dry skin. I am also using Tretinoin 0.05% cream that was prescribed to me which can cause dryness too. As a result, I needed something that didn’t clog pores, hydrated my skin enough but didn’t make me look oily, was affordable, and cruelty-free (I don’t use cosmetic products that are animal tested). I gave this moisturizer a try and I am now on my 12th bottle. I truly do love it. It doesn’t make me break out, it keeps me hydrated (I do use it with hyaluronic acid which helps absorb the moisturizer). It does feel a little sticky on my skin which I don’t like, but when I put my zinc oxide sunscreen over it, the tackiness/stickiness goes away. I apply 1 to 1.5 pumps to my face twice daily and I would say one bottle lasts 5 or 6 weeks. My largest complaint and reason for docking a star is that the device’s pump does not always work. Of the 12 bottles I’ve purchased, I have had 1 completely stop working, and 2 that were not functioning properly so I had to press the bottle down multiple times to get enough moisturizer to come out. I do like the design because I feel that I get every ounce of products in the bottle, and since it’s inside a sterile bottle, the moisturizer isn’t exposed to bacteria and dust. I just think they need to see what is causing the defective pump and modify the packaging to prevent this from happening.One other thing I will add is that this bottle seems like it uses a lot of plastic. I probably go through 10-11 bottles a year, so that can’t be good for the environment. I wish they had refill pods or something so I don’t have to toss this chunk of plastic into the trash every few weeks. It would be more economically and environmentally efficient if Curology made this addition.Overall, I would recommend this product. I have already recommended it to multiple of my friends. If your skin is on the oiler side, it may be hit or miss, but for ~$17, it’s worth a shot.

Horrible product packaging
I am a long time user of the rich moisturizer which is the best moisturizer for my skin, and bought this one on amazon which is the “new” rich moisturizer. The moisturizer seems almost the same but the packaging is horrific. it broke immediately and stopped pumping, I took it apart and put it back together then it started pooling moisturizer inside. Further, it seems much more wasteful. I really don’t understand why they wouldn’t just use a squeeze tube like before or a simple jar like Kiehls.If the product packaging doesn’t change back I will need to look for a new moisturizer.

Great lotion, horrible pump
The lotion is amazing. It’s rich, creamy, no fragrance, absorbs quickly, no slime, very hydrating to my dry skin. Pump is awful. It’s awkward to hold, it’s messy, hard to control amount
