Augustinus Bader The Rich Cream Face Moisturizer


Augustinus Bader The Rich Cream With TCF8 Face Moisturizer - I expected more from the moisturizer, which is priced between $100 and $300. Upon first application, I noticed that it has a very unpleasant smell of grease, and the texture is also thick and greasy. I looked up the ingredients and saw that the third one is sunflower seed oil, which explains the texture and the smell. Even when I was washing my hands afterwards, I had to apply soap twice in order to get rid of the greasy residue. 

But not only was the smell and texture unpleasant, this cream also made my skin look patchy red and it felt slightly burning here and there. After a while, the smell went away and my skin tone became normal, but the initial feeling was terrifying. 

This cream is truly not for everybody, and I highly recommend testing it out before purchasing the full size.
