I spent about the same amount of time staring at the creams too!!!

Skyn Pure Cloud was recommended, but for some reason the Oxygen one appeals to me more. The slight tingling (not burning, I’m not that sensitive) has helped my skin feel brighter and more exfoliated.. it has never looked better.

Paired with my Genuine Health pills, my skin is incredible now!

I find Philosophy to be too cheap to be effective for my skin. The smells are great, the whole idea is fabulous, but the cream doesn’t pack enough oomph.

Checked out the Skyn line at Sephora after I read your review. I have very dry, sensitive, irritated skin so it's really hard for me to find products that work. I spent over an hour looking at all the natural creams they had to offer.

After debating between a few brands, ended up picking Skyn Pure Cloud Cream, the eye cream and face wash. It feels like heaven on my skin. At first I was really concerned about the price point, but after trying many different (cheaper – Philosophy, Biotherm, Vichy, Avene, Lancome, Elizabeth Arden, and tons of drug store brands) creams over the years and finally giving in and buying something at a higher price point, I can definitely feel the difference. Worth the extra money for sure.

Hmm maybe when I finish my Ren stuff I'll invest in this. I was at Sephora and choose a 7 piece Ren set only because it was cheaper. The Frankincese night cream saved me from weird dry patches taking over my face. I paid 50 dollars for Sheiseido Benefiance eye cream once, and that's the most I've ever shelled out for facial care!

Thanks for the review. I have eczema patches right above my eyes…and I've tried EVERYTHING to get rid of them and it's horrible. I may have to try this…

So, I have one question. Is it expensive? LOL. I have dry skin, but not eczema/extremely dry, so I use Nivea Moisturizing Lotion. The 'slip' is pretty gunky, but I like it because I know I am getting the cream into all the dry spots. I tried using lighter lotions like Cetaphil and Neutrogena and my skin ended up drying out hours later. My face is pretty much a moisturizer monster.

In the winter time, I also apply an extra layer of Vaseline to keep in the lotion AND to serve as a barrier against the harsh wind.

I love the wit on the packaging. Very clever.
