Packaging:
- It comes in a easy to use tall pump. which i always like for any product packaging.
- Its looks very classy attractive gold thing from distance but when you see closely, you gonna found tacky n poor plastic finishing. which i hated.
- pump thing is okey but the container is not see through, so u cant ever see how much product is left in the container. and this was a disappointment.
- After using it few days the Lid got totally cracked without any reason. maybe its because of poor plastic quality.... and it doesn't fit on the pump anymore. and i Hated this.

My Experience:
I'm having combination skin type.I got this product in January 2013 with loads of good hope, sigh!! It was winter then... Firs time i applied the cream it felt sticky and greasy. It didn't left any white cast but left Huge oily shine on skin and didn't showed any symptom to absorb the oiliness even after an hour. There is some gold, actually glitter dust in it n which is pretty visible when you look closely. but the shine didn't occur by the glitter, it was the cream formula. Additionally, when my husband saw me with it he said, "are you taking any oil therapy?", which was enough for me to makeup my mind for this cream... this was so not for my skin type...
though i tried to use it.... it doesn't really work on skin damage or doesn't help to brighten up skin tone. while i was using this i faced so many skin problem but not sure if it was for the cream. It works ok as makeup base though.
However, I'm now using it as my night cream, haven't seen any improvement in my skin but just ignoring the greasy feeling that way....and waiting to see the empty bottle.
Overall, It was totally a Bad purchase for me.
If you have normal/combi/oily skin i wont recommend u to try this product but if you have dry skin you can try i guess!!
Have you tried this ?? how was your experience??
