Packaging
It comes in a 60ml glass jar packaging. I don't really prefer this kind of packaging because it's not really hygienic. Kalau moisturizer, nak dalam tube please.
Texture
Thick white cream but it absorbs nicely into the skin.
Scent
Citrus-ish scent
My thoughts
The main reason why I bought this product is because the name is "Super Ceramide Cream" and it claims to moisturize your skin for 72 hours. Too good to be true eh?
So anyways, I have tried a few moisturizer with ceramides, you can read about em here: https://www.imanabdulrahim.com/2018/12/moisturizers-with-ceramide-that-i-have.html

Basically ceramide is good to repair your skin barrier so I do prefer a moisturizer with ceramide to maintain my skin barrier.

I got this from Guardian, during the 40% sale. If I'm not mistaken, the price for this product is around RM100+ so bila sale, dapat lah around RM60+. Kalau tak sale, maybe I tak beli because this is considered quite an expensive moisturizer from drugstore. Nasib baik ada sale, boleh lah try.

I like how how this moisturizer absorbs into my skin. It's a cream moisturizer but it's not too thick, I ambil banyak and apply banyak dekat kulit pun, dia tak jadi macam too thick yang nampak warna putih putih kat kulit lepastu lambat nak absorb. Dia macam melts nicely into the skin lepastu rasa kulit memang moisturized. Sukaaaa! Tapi part 72 hours tu I rasa macam tak je...
The citrus-ish scent does lingers, and if you have sensitive skin and can't tolerate essential oils, you might not like this. Kalau dia dalam tube and takde essential oil, I might consider to repurchase this again.
Pros:
Nice texture and absorbs nicely into my skin
Cons:
Contains essential oils
Not fungal acne safe
Jar packaging
That's all, thanks for reading!
