I use Tretinoin almost nightly, so it is essential that I am offsetting that with the highest level of hydration possible - particularly during the harsh New England winter. Enter Vital Balm Cream, the most luxurious moisturizer I have used to-date. There is truly nothing more to say. Those with sensitive skin might prefer the unscented version, however. Otherwise, I have no notes; it does what it is meant to do, and well.

This is for the Josh Rosebrook C cream. It comes in a glass container which is easy to open and close. I love the texture and the smell is that of creamsicle(ish). I feel it absorbs nicely into my skin. I use it after I get out of the shower. A little bit goes a long way so at first I thought it wasn’t much but it does last!

This small jar is pure magic on my normal to dry skin. Seriously, Josh Rosebrook Vital Balm Cream makes my skin look movie star luminous—and no wonder, it’s full of skin nourishing oils, antioxidants, and soothing botanicals. It’s basically skin food and my face eats it up. Josh Rosebrook has a clean beauty philosophy, meaning they sustainably source plant materials for all their beauty formulas. Their ingredients list is transparent and you can see it’s all natural, without chemicals. This balm is rich and a little seems to go a long way. It has a thick, buttery texture that immediately melts into my skin leaving it hydrated and dewy. I think it smells like bubble gum (pretty sure that’s the ylang-ylang and blue tansy sweetly harmonizing). For every purchase Josh Rosebrook gives back 1% to a not for profit organization, so you can feel good knowing your dollars are creating positive impact on the community. I am so excited to add this product to my daily beauty regime. It’s amazing!
