As I have aged I have noticed that my skin has become dryer, especially my face so I am always on the look out for moisturizer that I can put on and forget about  but that also does the work of making my skin softer and more subtle.  This cream fills the bill as you put it on at night so it works while you sleep and after a few days application there is a noticeable difference to my skins softness and it is noticeably less dry .  Great product.
