The Light Cream

It's working

I gave up for getting a really working care for my oily skin, and wasn't expecting that this one would work, but decided to try. In a week of using it my face finally got rid of that constant oil that was for the last 10 years making me feel like my skin didn't ever breathe. This is a very good skin care! I love all AB products!

Didn’t work.

Unfortunately, it did nothing to me. I have Rosacea and at the same time, a very oily and sensitive skin, and it made it worse; more red and oiler.

The Light Cream

I have oily combination skin and I have tried the rich cream which is amazing but this the light cream really works on my skin. I absolutely love it!!

Very good for oily skin

It’s a good light cream, like serum. Still hydrates the skin but not leaving it with a greasy texture.

Really quite perfect

This is comparable to the La Mer soft cream. Big fan.

In love

Amazing. Price but it’s a great product. My face looks so good and my skin silky. Perfect.

Delayed allergic reaction - please be careful.

I experienced a delayed allergic reaction to this. I did a patch test with no issues prior to putting it all over my face. However, 3-4 days into using this cream 2x a day, I developed a very itchy, red rash with weeping welts all over my face, neck, chest, and back. It's really a shame since the cream is quite nice - it makes your oil levels feel balanced, minimizes the look of pores, gets rid of dry patches, seems to reduce acne spots, and sits beautifully under makeup/sunscreen. If you have sensitive skin or a history of allergies to skincare/cosmetics, I highly recommend doing multiple patch tests over the course of several days.

Not great at oil absorbing

Just ok, not great for oil and matting , prefer others better

Too Average For The Price

I received this Augustinus Bader The Light Cream from Influenster and Augustinus Bader for free, in exchange for my honest review. As this face cream comes from a prestigious brand, I have high expectations for what it can deliver to my skincare routine. This Light Cream version promotes a mattifying, moisturized, radiant complexion that aids in minimizing oily skin. As its high price indicates, this cream is to be far superior than similar prestige brand products. This cream felt light, fresh and instantly absorbed when applied. However, within minutes this cream made my skin dry and seeking extra hydration. A disappointment, to say the least. I expected much better from this cream, and therefore can’t recommend given the price point.

Feels amazing

My dry skin loves this moistrizer, it is perfect for summer and feels good on my skin. I have dry acne prone skin and this has not triggered any breakouts. It also works very well under makeup. Looking forward to continued use to benifit from the skin improving features of pores and file lines reduction. This cream is pricey but in my opinion very worth it, really hydrates the skin from the inside not just on top, my skin looks and feels healthier in 10 days of daily use, and it's vegan.

Beautiful in a Bottle!

This cream was kindly gifted to me as a sample by Influenster. Upon opening box, this product projects a high end box, packaging and is oh so pleasing to my visual self! I have been using product for about 2 weeks now. Before photos have been taken and at the end of 6 weeks, I will show the world before and after photos and you can judge for yourself! The cream is super light and per instructions I have been using it nightly using upward motions with my fingers. I am a total beauty junkie people and I live for products such as this! I have noticed a SLIGHT difference in my crows feet, so far, so good! I will write another review at the end of 6 weeks. Thank you for reading! Overall I do believe this is worth the money! I am in my 40's and with the terrible recession going on now all over, it's hard to justify spending a lot of money of myself, but stay tuned for my next review! 😉 My complexion seems smoother and a bit firmer! That's magic to me!

The Light Cream by Augustinus Bader

I have never tried this brand before so I was excited to sample The Light Cream. I was concerned because it is labeled as a mattifying cream. My skin is dry so I don’t like a matte look. The finish isn’t dewy, but it looks like clean hydrated skin, very natural. I apply this after my serum. My skin drinks this right in and it doesn’t feel like it is sitting on the top of my skin. It feels like nothing at all which is great when it is so hot out. My skin felt nourished all day. The consistency is almost serum like and one or two pumps is all you need. The container is odd, it has a rounded test tube shape bottom. You have to store it upside down or lay it down on the counter. Not a big deal but a weird design for a high end product. I would definitely recommend this product.
