Performance:  I first tried Om Aroma & Co products about 4 years ago when I purchased a small trial/travel kit which included this face cream and I remembered loving the products and the way my skin looked, which prompted me to finally order a full size version years later. The product has a light scent which reminds me a bit of white tea and berries. It is a light formula that sinks in quick. It is perfect to use in the morning under makeup and at night. For extra hydration at night, I like to mix this with a serum before applying. What I love most about this cream is that I can always count on it to get my skin back in order after hormonal breakouts or a bad reaction to a new product.

Would I Repurchase: Yes! (considering I already have). However, the price of this product is not usually the amount I am willing to spend. I did buy this as part of a set including a cleanser and eye cream. It is definitely a luxury product for me!
