Shea Butter Ultra Rich Face Cream

4/3/2012
This was my favorite product BEFORE it was reformulated. Now it contains sunscreen chemicals that I can't tolerate (they irritate my skin); I will have to find some other product to use. Too bad, L'OCCITANE, you lost this customer.

Fragrance is over-powering, burned my face, broke out in hives. Hope the eye balm does not do the same.

Love this particular L'OCCITANE product...especially with my "mature" skin.

This is the only moisturizer I use and I love it, however--this new jar is problematic. I agree that it's pretty to look at, but it's very tippy, awkward and difficult to hold. The jar I just bought slid out of my hand and shattered all over my bathroom counter, leaving tiny shards of glass everywhere. I couldn't even salvage what was in the jar because of all the glass so I had to replace it. I'll keep buying this cream, but I'll have to transfer it to another container for practical use.

I purchased the SPF version of this product in-store. After using it for 3 days I noticed that my skin had become more blotchy and covered with red bumps, so stopped using the cream and returned it to the store. This was not the right product for my acne prone, combination skin.

I love this cream. I have roseacea and it has completly cleared up. This cream is light and creamy and soaks right in to my skin. Perfect for winter. For summer I may switch to the 8% shea cream. But for now this has my skin looking better than ever.

I love this creme. I use it in winter when my skin is especially dry. I have combination skin, but it doesn't make my skin too oily or cause it to break out. I love the scent, too, but I guess it's a matter of personal taste.

I found this cream to be extremely irritating for my face. I have sensitive and dry skin and have had a very good experience with L'Occitane's shea and cotton line. But with this cream, I ended up with a horrible, bumpy, itchy, red rash that took weeks to go away. If you have sensitive skin, I would do a patch test before putting it all over your face. I also found the smell to be unpleasant.

Wonderfully hydrating and perfect for sensitive skin!

If I could bathe in this, I would! I have never used a product that I have consistently been so happy with! The smell is wonderful and it feels so creamy smooth on my face and neck. Love it!

I love this moisturizer! I use it in the summer too except on the hottest days.

Always good to try samples first and I found this was a bit to rich for my face so I use the Ultra comforting creme which is great for my sensitive skin.

I love this! Smells great and since you don't have to use much it lasts forever,

Our family LOVES this product. My granddaughter's hands become very chapped in the winter and we could not find any cream that would not burn or heal her hands, until we started using this product. A couple of applications and all is great. My son and husband also use it in the winter as they often work outdoors, prevents their faces from drying from the harsh MN winter. I use it every day and have never loved a product more than this one!! ENJOY!!

I have very very dry skin and it used to crack a lot during winter time. After trying out samples of this cream, I noticed the difference right away! I bought this cream and have been using it since - it's been 5 years and my skin has turned around to be healthy and glowing! This cream keeps my skin moisturized 24x7, no kidding! This is a superb product; I strongly recommend it for those that have dry skin! And most important of all, please do not discontinue this cream! :)

This stuff is amazing. This is the only moisturizer I will use and the only one I have found that will work...hence why I only use this....AMAZING!!!!

I don't understand the negative comments on this wonderful cream. I am in love with this product and use it twice a day along with the shea butter eye cream/balm and have found it to be better than other products I have used for years (philosophy). I think it may be too dense for summer so I just ordered the the ultra moisturizing fluid spf 20 for the hot months. I am eager to receive the shea butter fabulous serum as well. The shea butter scrub used first makes a HUGE difference in absorption.

I absolutely love this moisturizer! I use it at night after the Ultra Comforting Cleansing Milk, and my face feels amazing! I have such dry and sensitive skin, it is nice to know there is something this wonderful for me to use.

Its alright, that's all I will say, nothing bad but nothing outstanding either.

I have allergies all over my face because of this product! I dont know what to do about it. It's so embarassing to go outside because I have rashes all over my face. My face is so red, and is very itchy. I love the olive cream product but not this.

L'Occitane, please bring back the original formulation! I have very sensitive skin; this product was the only facial cream that I found to moisturize my face w/o causing irriatation. It was glorious until about a year ago when you changed the formulation, along with the packaging. I immediately noticed the new packaging, but the saleswomen assured me that it was the same product. Wrong! I'm allergic to this new formulation; my face immediately breaks out in hives. I cannot find a replacement.

Love this product!! I smells great and leaves my face so soft! I also helps my rosecea. Will definitely buy it again!

This is a skin irritating product! I have eczema with a very dry face and as soon as I put it in my face it all became red. My guess is that there's some irritating chemical. I love LOCCITANE products, but this one is completely disappointing!

I love this moisturizer. I live in a dry, high-altitude location and I have sensitive skin. I also have autoimmune disease and this product soothes my skin. I even use it on my arms where I get eczema - I normally have eczema all winter and it hasn't flared up once since I've been using this product. This is the only non-prescription product that has ever worked on my eczema. I'm buying the body cream because I love this so much.

This is a great product - long lasting hydration and softness with an extrtemely pleasing, yet subtle, fragrance.

I bought this a few months ago and it worked great for a while, but then it began irritating the eczema on my face. It has a very strong smell as well. I never was too happy with it, but gave it a long, good try. I won't buy again. Unfortunately, it's too late to get my money back.

This cream is wonderful! I have used it with L'Occitane's Fabulous Serum everyday am and pm for more than a month now and the result gets better everyday. My skin doesn't feel tight anymore, it looks healthy and it feels healthy. I'm so happy to finally find the product that works on my skin! Thank you L'Occitane!
