I received a sample of this cream when I purchased the peel and instantly fell in love. It's hydrating and makes my skin dewy without being greasy or clogging my pores. I am didilgent about my skincare and use a really wonderful line of products but I have tabled my traditional moisturizer and am using this. I should mention this peptide cream is also less expensive than my traditional moisturizers.

I started using the Hydration Peptide Cream, alternating with SD's Weightless Oil Free Moisterizer. I love both but as the HPC is designed for normal to dry skin, I may gravitate toward it. Shani Darden's products have evened out my skin tone and my skin looks healthier.
