Day protection cream with added nourishment.

Yes, I recommend this

Great product for sun protection and added moisture. Non greasy formula that leaves the skin soft and easy to apply makeup on top or wear on its own.

I'm on my second tube of this moisturiser and I love it. Beautiful, light fragrance, sinks in quickly and it has an SPF! I'm very impressed with this range so far.

Great product

Yes, I recommend this

I bought this moisturiser after trying it when it was a sample in the M&S Christmas Calendar offer box. I have always been troubled with acne and spots, so have been wary of moisturiser. However as I have aged and the skin problems lessened I began to try different products. This product is the only one so far that I find suitable. I love it for every day use and it has the added bonus of SPF. I highly recommend it!

Not for me.

Smells nice and glows but it doesn’t last and dried tight on my skin so made it feel dry.Sadly not for me as I like my skin to feel moisturised. It would probably suit a younger skin.

Great product small tube size

Yes, I recommend this

I love this product my only annoyance is it is sold in a 50ml tube. This means it have to keep ordering it and picking it up from my (not so) local store. Please consider selling it in larger quantities as 50ml doesn't last long.

Not for dry/sensitive/mature skin

Light moisturiser probably better for younger skin. My 52 year old face needs a bit more oomph!

Average Daily Moisturiser

Not as moisturising as I’d like. The sunscreen in the cream makes it harder to sink into the skin, but once on it’s okay. Not sure if I would buy again, I think it maybe more suited to younger skin. If M&S could advise which age group these creams are for, it would be helpful.

Lovely lightweight moisturiser. Perfect for summer

Yes, I recommend this

I think this will be my new go-to day cream for summer. Its a lovely silky, lightweight texture that absorbs quickly and leaves my skin feeling hydrated and glowing. Spf25 gives decent protection from the sun, which is great if, like me, you're hopeless at remembering to apply sunscreen on top of moisturiser! And its an absolute bargain!

Good product to try at a reasonable price

Yes, I recommend this

I like it overall it has a good consistency and goes on nicely but it could be more hydrating. I like that it is SPF25 and would buy this again - would be good to have it in similar packaging to formula range so that you can access all the product more easily rather than the tube.
