Aqua Fusion

If you read Cosmpolitan.com you probably noticed one of the long standing features under the Style and Beauty section which is called Celeb's Favorite Products. If you have not read it yet - DON'T EVEN BOTHER! In short, 100 celebrities got together to brainwash you about "fantastic" must-have beauty products. Only a couple of them give a decent advice, others either advertise the company they have a contract with or talk about "miracle" products that cost several hundred dollars (which very few of us can afford).

So I decided to make it my mission to de-mistify the "Celeb's Favorites" and give you alternatives that won't break you budget while doing an excellent job.

Today my target is Creme de La Mer. It is recomended by several celebrities but at a retail price of 230 USD/2 oz jar it feels to me more like a small dismond than a face cream. If you are looking for an outstanding moisturizing cream my absolute favoutite is Lancome Aqua Fusion Continuously Infusing Moisture Cream-Gel ( Normal/ Combination Skin; Cream - for Dry Skin) : It does exactly what it says in the title: infuses you skin with moisture and locks it there. Whenever I am on the go I always take it with me and if I have space just for 1 jar - this is it, because it can double as my eye cream (it releaves the tightness around the eyes in an instant!) It is oil free and does not clog pores

What do I especially love about it? - The fact that it costs just 39 USD/1.7 OZ jar! (Fragrance.net gives the best price at the moment, click the image above to get direstly to Lancome section of the site). It is sometimes placed in the "night cream" section, but it it sooooo light and refreshing that it can be used both in the morning and before bedtime.
