This is exactly what I look for in a face moisturizer. It's thick, heavy, dense, but as soon as melts into the skin, it leaves it soft and not greasy in an way. Lots of face creams say they don't leave skin greasy, but I find many of them still do. And my skin doesn't do so well with creams that make it greasy. It tends to clog up my skin and then the oils naturally in my skin build up into the moisturizer and my whole face ends up feeling like I used butter on my face or something. But if I don't use any moisturizer on my skin in the cold months, it tends to get dry and my makeup doesn't look as good.
