Melissa's DeLush Downlow: I am most often put off by anything that has to do with rose scent. For some reason, I can only think of the really strong and obnoxious smell that some women insist on dousing themselves with and then possibly rolling around in. Not to say that all things rose are "bad". I just haven't had good experiences. This cream is different in that sense. The fragrance is quite mild and subdued. The formula doesn't scream "ROSES! I MUST SMELL LIKE I BATHED IN ROSES!"

This moisturizer also really calms my winter skin. It's not so thick that my face feels greasy, yet it is substantial enough that I like to use it as a nighttime moisturizer. (I really prefer a stronger SPF for daytime use, but layered with an oil-free sunscreen this really does keep your skin hydrated comfortably throughout the day without creating an oil-slick on your face.) However, my skin does tend to change in the summertime and becomes more oily, so this may be too heavy for me to use during the day then. If you typically have extremely oily skin, I would recommend you try something formulated specifically for your skin type instead.
