Review - L'Oreal Triple Active Day Protecting Moisturising Cream

I really should have written this review a long time ago, cause I did finish this product a while ago. :S

The cream is very thick, and rich. I have dry combination skin, and this cream was a little too thick for me to use during the day. I used this day cream at night. Haha

When I googled for this product all hits I got were for a different, but very similar product. Is this discontinued? Replaced with the other product. Packaging is very similar, both are for dry and sensitive skin. It's the Multi-protection moisturiser that comes up on Google, not the one I have...

This is for dry and sensitive skin. But the scent is very overwhelming! You know the smell that comes from the creams your aunt and mother used when you were little. Yeah, the typical L'Oreal scent. It's a very powerful scent, and if you are sensitive to smells, this is not for you. My problem is that this cream is for dry and sensitive skin types. If you have sensitive skin, it can get irritated from basically anything. - especially parfums in products. So why would someone add very strongly smelling scents to a cream for sensitive skin?

This is a day cream but like I said I did not use this during the day because I felt it was too thick. It did not make my foundation run off or anything, but just the feeling of applying a cream as thick as this was unappealing. I loved the effect that I got when I used this during the night. The next morning my skin was so even toned, and calm. This cream has Vitamin E, Ceramide and UV-filters. 

This claims to be triple action; moisturizes, protects and "shine". Shine is the wrong term, I just can't think of the right term for it. "Makes you shine from within" stuff you know.Glow, maybe?


The package is very heavy. If I would through it to the window - it would break the window. Just sayin'. It's heavy. ;)

Your thoughts?

PS. There are two polls on the right, it would really make my day if you'd go vote if you haven't already! :)
