Tru Alchemy Face Moisturizer

As a desert dweller, this cream makes my skin feel youthful again. It also is nice in that it does not leave any kind of residue or yucky feeling on my face. I am not seeing any visible difference in the aging of my skin, but I would definitely purchase again based on how good my skin feels.

Saw no evidence of what the product claimed to do.

I have always had issues getting pimples after using any moisturizer sensitive or not but I never have had that issue with Tru Alchemy. It feels great, works wonders and is sensitive in sent and touch. Won't ever use anything else.

I’m 72 yrs oldI have tried everythingThis works..

Unfortunately, this product made my face feel like parchment paper and after 2 weeks, I stopped using it. Guess it's not for everybody.

Light weight lightly scented! Keeps my skin soft without feeling greasy

Smooth and makes my face feel fresh and moisturized

After using Cera-ve for years, it started to irritate my skin. I had to try several moisturizers before I found this one. Light and comfortable on my 72 year old skin. However, when I use sunblock on my face to hike or boat, it turns yellow.

Just ok. Not good absorption

Did not work at all and felt very cheap.

This is wonderful and my skin lives it. Highly recommend.

Was looking to replace my daily face moisturizer, read a few reviews & figured I'd try since the price was reasonable if I wasn't in love.It's only been a few weeks but, feels great, light not oily, smells great, like cucumbers but not overwhelming.Can't notice any difference in my skin but I'll keep with it.Only flaw is no SPF. Still will need to layer for outdoors.Overall pleased with the test drive.

Really good moisturizer that does the job without being greasy or heavy on your skin. I recommend you pair with the cleanser. You’ll be happy you did!

I am completely dissatisfied with the entire Alchemy skin care line, in spite of the rave reviews I saw before making the purchase. I bought the cleanser, serum, dark spot serum and moisturizer. I spent a small fortune for stuff that I have had zero positive results. The scent of each one is absolutely awful, the quality is poor and there is no difference whatsoever in my skin, including the guarantee that the dark spots will lighten. Don’t waste your money!

I have tried the eye elixir and the quench cream and I LOVE them both. I am 61 and fighting the age battle. I have tried a lot of the creams the derms recommend and finally found Tru Alchemy. I can’t say enough about them. They make my skin look and feel great! I wish they were sold in stores because I have to be sure and order in time not to run out. You should try the eye elixir and quench face creme. Miracles don’t happen over night, so you can’t just try them for a week or two, but you will see and feel the difference.

I’m on my second bottle. My skin feels moisturized and not tight the morning after use. Some people complain about the smell but it kinda reminds me of cucumber melon a little, if you don’t mind that. A little goes a long way so the price is just right cuz the bottle lasts a long time.

I have normal skin. Was looking for something moisturizing; unfortunately the Quench creme dries my face, so when I apply my makeup it appears to look ashy. I was using Clinique's moisture mask, will continue with that product instead. "That" leaves my skin soft and with a "glow". Am returning as well. Women just take "Hair Skin & Nails" vitamins with "Hyalaronic acid". We thrive with what we put "in" our bodies as well as what we put on our skin.

It’s moisturizing without being greasy. There is no smell. My skin looks great. I use it as the daily moisturizer with my daily routine.

I have not used this product long enough to give it a stellar review; but, so far, it seems to work. It moisturizes well and makes my skin look healthy. I’ll know better what the results of using it are in another month.

I was disappointed in this product. It actually has more of a drying effect than a moisturizing effect, at least for my skin type. I am over 60 years old with a few small, dry patches on my face but overall normal skin. This product would be good for a person with oily to normal skin.

It is still too early to give much feedback but, I do like the way my skin feels after application. I can use the product in the morning and 10 hours later, my skin still feels soft and smooth.

I really like my experience with this moisturizer. I have combination type skin, and it's difficult for me to find a product that will work well with both areas of my face. I have an oilier T zone, and drier areas that surround my chin. Often times those things that will work well for my T zone don't provide me any benefit for my dryer chin. For example, with retinol products, I have found that they work very well on my oilier skin, but exacerbate the dryness issue of my chin, aggravating my skin. So much so, that it could result in flaking issues. This cream has a very nice consistency and does a very nice job of saturating into the skin leaving it feeling very nicely hydrated. I find it actually works well on both areas of my face, which for me is very beneficial. This moisturizer contains bakuchiol, which in contrast to retinol, is a much gentler option. I can tell you from my experience, that this is most certainly true. Like I had mentioned before, it does well to accommodate both oily and dry skin. I had no aggravation from it or irritation whatsoever. After having used it for awhile, I did notice the diminishment of fine lines closer to my eye area. All in all, I have been very pleased with my experience. I think it is a great option, and one that I would certainly look to again for my own personal needs. I would recommend giving it a try.

I bought this product for an age spot on my face. I have been using it using it for 3 months twice a day and it has not lightened my age spot at all.

This product arrived very runnyDo not believe consistency of cream is as it should be. Used with other products and face turned orangeShould have returned but no .. my loss

Im excited to feel firmer, clearer skin using carefully picked ingredients. Thank you.

I mix this with a small dab of vitamin C cream to put on my face before applying sunscreen in the morning. It keeps my skin comfortably moisturized all day, especially on colder days. It has a rather pleasant, not-too-overpowering scent that reminds me of cucumbers, and it sinks into the skin quickly without feeling too greasy. I think my skin is looking better overall, although I do use other products on my face overnight as well, so I can't be sure how much is due to this product.

I was surprised to see this listed as fragrance free, because it has a noticeable cucumber scent. Normally I choose fragrance free for products I use on my face but the light cucumber scent doesn’t bother me. The cream is on the thin side, any thinner it would be a lotion, and a little bit does go along way. It feels quenching on application and the hydration lasts all day without leaving my face greasy at all. It works well under my foundation and does noticeably soften fine lines and wrinkles.

This cream is best applied at night if you have oily combo skin or acne prone skin. It is on the thicker side and although it absorbs well, does leave skin with a moisturized veil on your face with is not great for make-up application or during day wear if you plan to be on your feet 10+ hours. It just adds to the already oily condition of your face that you may be struggling with. At night though, this is very nice. At the end of the day after cleansing and toning and seruming, this is the last step and does provide suppleness to face and leave it moisturized.

Tru Alchemy Quench Creme is a daily moisturizer that’s a pretty light green color and has an incredible melon/cucumber/fruity scent that’s light and isn’t from chemical fragrance. The texture is thick but slightly runny, though it still has a denser and substantial feel when I apply this cream. My skin absorbs this cream really well, and it provides a good level of moisture that makes my dry skin feel nice and comfortable. I’ve used it with a few different essences/toners and serums, and it pairs well with everything I’ve tried so far.While this Quench Creme could be used as a day or night cream, I have such dry skin that I gravitate to rich and greasy products at night. I have used this at night mixed with a facial oil and liked it a lot, but it’s already ideal as a day cream for me as it works great under my makeup given that it hydrates and plumps my skin enough that it smooths my fine lines and it doesn’t leave any greasy or oily residue. It also makes my skin soft and provides ample hydration so my skin feels comfortable all day.My skin is highly sensitive to drying alcohol and a number of ingredients, but this cream avoids the harsh stuff and feels calming and nonirritating to my easily provoked skin. It’s a great product that has some of my favorite ingredients, such as Vitamin C (tetrahexyldecyl ascorbate), sodium hyaluronate, squalane, bakuchiol and glycerin. This has no ingredients that stand out as a concern. I can’t say for sure, but assume the squalane is plant based as the site says no animal fats, lipids or oils are used. This is a cream exceeds my expectations for under $40. Highly recommend. 5 stars. Made in the USA.

This daily facial moisturizer works really well for my skin,no irritation or unpleasant feelings noticed.It moisturizers so great my skin,after using my skin feels softer and mush more hydrated.The ingredients are good and everything seems to be great ability this moisturiser,I’m very satisfied.

Tru Alchemy Quench Crème Daily Facial Moisturizer is just amazing. I have tried three products from Tru Alchemy to date and I am just in-love with all of them. This container is on the small side but the good news is you only have to use a small amount of the moisturizer to cover your entire face. And it leaves your skin so soft and moisturized, just healthy, dewy looking skin. All of Tru Alchemy's products are quality made and the best part is that they actually work and work well. I love them.

I have been using the Tru Alchemy serum, moisturizer, and eye cream for a few weeks now. Since it is hard to determine if the results are due to the serum or the moisturizer, I tested them together and separately.When used on it's own, this lightweight moisturizer provides the perfect amount of moisture for my combination skin without feeling too heavy or contributing to the oiliness on my t-zone. The light cucumber scent is nice and isn't too over powering. While this moisturizer is quite lightweight on it's own, it pairs nicely with the Serum which is somewhat heavier. The Tru Alchemy serum has a slight oiliness that adds a heavier dose of moisture. When the serum is paired with this moisturizer, it helps balance out the oiliness of the serum.It would have been a nice to have if this moisturizer also contained some type of SFP for sun protection. Their serum contains AHAs which should be paired with a sunscreen and it would have been a nice match up if they had included sun protection in the moisturizer that is used along side with the AHAs in their serum.This is my first time using Bakuchiol. I have sensitive skin and have found that sometimes retinol can irratate my skin. I found didn't have an issue with the bakuchiol at all.Review For:Tru Alchemy Quench Crème Daily Facial Moisturizer | Hyaluronic Acid, Vitamin C, & Bakuchiol (better than Retinol) | Anti-Aging Skin Firming Face Cream | 1.4 oz/40 g

I forget that this has vitamin c in it because my face was so hydrated after using this. Normally my face gets a bit red at first when I use vit c. That didn’t happen with this, my skin just looked hydrated and smooth and well rested. This can be used morning or night and under makeup. I can’t wait to see long term results.

I have fairly dry skin, and while winters are bad due to lower humidity, the sun and chlorine is also pretty rough on it. At night I have to slather on moisturizer to make up for the wear and tear of the day. This is very rich cream with a mild but pleasant scent. It has a pale green color to it, like an avocado crema.I find that while very thick and rich, it does absorb very well. I've used it for about a week and am pleased with the look and feel of my face. I can't say it's helping with wrinkles, but we all know no cream will completely get rid of those! This is very nice stuff!

Tru Alchemy Quench Crème Daily Facial Moisturizer | Hyaluronic Acid, Vitamin C, & Bakuchiol (better than Retinol) | Anti-Aging Skin Firming Face Cream | 1.4 oz/40 gI really like this Tru Alchemy moisturizer. It smells like Green Goddess dressing - a mix of cucumber and avocado that is soothing and relaxing. The scent is quite noticeable when you put it on but fades quickly and doesn't linger. It is very creamy and really works into my skin, leaving it feeling moisturized and softer. I think it is rich enough to use at night, while also working well during the day because of how easily it absorbs into my skin.

This face moisturizer has a light fresh scent. It has a creamy consistency. It takes a little longer to absorb than other moisturizers that I use. I have learned to only use a little of it. I have sensitive skin and it doesn't irritate me.

Not one of my favorite moisture creams at all. I had high hopes for this moisturizer, but it failed me. It does moisturize, but that's about all it does for my skin.This is a pretty pale green cream in a jar. It feels very rich to my fingers and as I massage it across my face. But this is where the problems begin. This moisture cream takes forever to absorb. No matter how much I try to spread this around or limit the amount, this green cream sits on my face for a good while before any absorption begins to take place. It does eventually happen, but it's annoying having to wait so long. Even tested it on the back of my hand to see if there would be a difference. Same thing happened.Once it finally does absorb and set, my face feels moisturized and softened. It helps a little with some of my finer lines, but nothing extraordinary. It's really just okay.Not much of a scent which will make many happy. Probably best for those with normal to dry skin, providing you have patience.

I like the silky texture of this moisturizer. It glides on and absorbs well. It doesn’t feel too heavy nor greasy. It has a very faint, barely there scent. This cream is moisturizing and also works well when layered with other skincare products and makeup.

This is a moisturizer that has me very pleasantly surprised - I love it! I love the way it makes my skin look and feel. At first when I opened the jar I thought, uh oh, I’m not going to like it. It looked like a jar of clay mask, both the color and the consistency. However, once applied, I fell in love with it. It moisturized my skin very nicely and left NO oily, greasy, tacky, sticky feeling. My skin just feel moisturized and didn’t seem to have any oily residue whatsoever. My skin just absorbed and drank it up. Definitely don’t judge a jar of cream by its look as it might just be your favorite face cream! I am already looking forward to tomorrow’s night time routine. Scent wise, I thought it was good - it has a very light cucumber scent, a scent that you’ve probably smelled before in some skincare products. It is very light that I can smell it when it’s on my fingers but once applied I can’t even really smell it. My face feels so smooth after use. I am always looking for a face cream that melts into the skin and doesn’t leave a greasy feeling and this is it. This is now one of my favorite face creams to use.

This was supposed to be one of the better moisturizers, but I tried several times to use it sparingly, and still my face was Red! Apparently, I cannot tolerate hyaurolonic acid of any form. So, this will have to go back.

It has a cucumber like scent to it. Slight greenish tint to it. It gave me a slight burning sensation on a few parts of my face. Not sure If it is supposed to do that or not

True Alchemy Quench Creme is a wonderful daily moisturizer. I say 'wonderful' now but at first, I wasn't so sure I was going to like it. The very first time I used it, it took a bit longer than other face creams to absorb. Its not terribly thick at all and it doesn't take much to sufficiently cover my face/forehead. But after a few minutes without total absorption, I began to wonder if I would have to wash it off. Turned out to not be a concern. It does take a tad longer to fully absorb into my skin but once it does, my skin is left feeling SO soft and smooth. My dry skin becomes, well, as the name says, 'quenched'. Dryness is replaced with hydration and moisture. My pale skin actually has some brightness to it. And I'm finally starting to notice less sagging a bit more firmness as well. It is so slight and probably not yet noticeable to others but I can see the difference. My fine lines are becoming thinner as well.This facial cream contains some great ingredients, including: Vitamin C, Hyaluronix and Bakuchiol. I had to look that up as I've never heard of it. Bakuchiol is an ingredient that brightens and smooths skin while reducing fine lines and wrinkles. It works similar to retinol but it far gentler.I have dry, sensitive skin and have no negative reactions when using this facial cream.Because a very small amount is used and excellent results are achieved quickly, I find the price of Tru Alchemy Quench Creme to be reasonable. This is a wonderful cream that does wonderful things for my skin!

all the products i’ve been able to sample by this brand have been nice surprises because i wasn’t expecting much from them. but now having tried this along with their eye cream and a couple other products, i think they’re a fairly solid choice to try if you’re new to this brand and looking for new products to try. the moisturizer is light but still hydrating and absorbs well without giving me any irritation on my slightly sensitive skin. it doesn’t leave me greasy or tacky either, so i don’t have any complaints. the packaging is cute and the products themselves are better than one would expect. the price might be high for some but if you’re used to regularly shelling out $30-40 for moisturizers, this isn’t too bad pricewise and the quality is what you’d expect from a $40 moisturizer; better than budget but may not compete as strongly with some dermatologist brands. overall i enjoy it and like it, and plan to use the rest of the jar, so if your skin is similar to mine (slightly sensitive, little to no breakouts, in between normal and combination), you will probably enjoy it as well.

I'm really loving this moisturizer. It has a light, pleasant scent and feels cooling when applying. It soaks right into my skin.It has Bakuhiol in it which is a cell-communicating ingredient like retinol. Basically it tells your skin to "behave better". It's also anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, anti-tumor and anti-bacterial. While it behaves on the skin similar to retinol, chemically it's nothing to do with retinoids. It does upregulate collagen I, III and IV production and downregulate MMP, the evil collagen attacking enzyme in our skin. This means more collagen stays in our skin and we all know that more collagen equals firmer, more wrinkle-free skin. As an added bonus, it's easier to tolerate compared with retinol.Tru Alchemy Quench Crème Daily Facial Moisturizer also has multiple moisturizing, brightening, antioxidant, and skin-identical ingredients. Really fantastic, gentle, non-greasy moisturizer.

Omgoodness. I have been using prescription retinal which is very damaging to the skin with ok results and very expensive. I purchased three different products that was recommended by lovelyskin all products were pricey with no visual results. I did much research and found this product as an answer to retinal. I did research on the plant and it was somewhat interesting. I purchased it. The product hydrated my skin, my lines and wrinkles are less visual and when getting a facial was told by the doctor my skin had aged beautiful. When I told the doctor what I had been using for only 4 weeks she was impressed. It's been 6 weeks now and if I don't see anymore improvements I will still be very pleased and keep using the product for now on. And during research some people sont like the scent but I didn't care smells like cucumbers but only for a few minutes

Well, this was a surprise when I opened the 1.4 oz. jar of Tru Alchemy Moisturizer. The Creme is green! A light green, actually quite pretty. The creme is more like a thick lotion - soupy instead of firm. It smooths on easily, takes a bit of time to dry before applying any makeup, has a very slight scent, and leaves a nice moist, comfortable, and smooth feeling on the face and neck. I had tried a bit on top of my arm first for any reactions - all fine. I was curious about the Retinol alternative called Bakuchiol, a natural product made from a plant that apparently has been around for ages, mostly used in India and China for medical purposes. There's also Hyaluronic acid for moisture, and Vitamin C for our immune system. The Bakuchiol has some wonderful properties of an anti-oxidant, is anti-inflammatory, and anti-bacterial. I'll keep using this daily and at night, and hopefully will see some improvement with the moisture factor. There is definitely a noticeable difference between my arms - with Tru Alchemy, soft and moist - without, dry and rough.

I have sensitive skin and this face moisturizer does not cause me any trouble. Overall I think my skin looks healtheir. It's a bit less viscous than I expected, make sure to keep the jar upright and open carefully. A little product goes a long way so I expect it will last quite a while.

This moisturizer is more expensive than grocery store brands, less expensive than some of the high end cosmetic brands. Here's what you get: A translucent brown glass jar holding a avocado-green colored cream with a moderately strong but not unpleasant scent that quickly fades after application. The cream is smooth on application and takes some massaging to resolve the residual whitish residue. Once applied, I noticed no irritation and did not develop any negative reaction to the product. It was quickly absorbed and did not leave my skin oily or greasy as some moisturizers do. Made in the USA, there's 1.4 ounces of product in the jar, plenty for a few months of daily use. Unlike retinol-based products, this product can be used morning and evening as it does not make skin more sun sensitive. The bakuchiol, which is plant-based, is probably the source of some of the product's scent, though the ingredient list has quite a few aromatics. The one thing to note here is that there is no inner lid, so if you toss this into your travel bag, then quickly open it after unpacking, there may be a tendency for some of the product to stick to the lid or spill out - this won't be an issue if the jar remains stable on your bathroom counter. The jar is small enough to be carried in a carry-on without offending the nice people at TSA.

To me, this is so pleasant to use. It smells like cucumbers to me, which I enjoy that scent. I already applied it to my face and it did a good job moisturizing. In fact, my face feels great right now.

The Tru Alchemy Quench Crème is a lightweight green, guacamole-color, cream that comes in a 40 gram, 1.4 ounce, jar. It contains squalene and squalane. These boost hydration. They are produced in the skin, but production falls off with age. There is also sodium hyaluronate, a great moisturizer that can hold one-thousand times its weight in water and transfer it into the skin. These moisturizers really work. The Tru Alchemy also contains Bakuchiol, a Retinol alternative, that smooths wrinkles without the drawbacks of Retinol. Using the Tru Alchemy left my skin smooth and hydrated.

This is a bit of an outlier in the world of face creams and moisturizers. It comes in an attractive container and instead of white it is green. It smells a little green like a mild seaweed or something like that. The scent stays on my fingers until I was it off. It is faint but it is there.It feels thinner than other face creams but it doesn't feel or look like it is separating like some do. It feels more oily on the fingers than other creams. It felt a little more oily on the face too initially. My skin quickly soaked it up and after applying more than I usually do, my face feet soft but not as soft as with more traditional face creams. After applying it, I didn't have a very positive impression of it.What this face cream needs is some time to work. I always apply these before going to bed. While this one wasn't very impressive going on, the next morning my face felt incredibly soft and not heavy as happens with some other creams.If whatever you are using now, makes your skin sometimes feel like there is just too much stuff on it sometimes, this feels lighter and still brings about the same or similar results. I'd describe the scent as "natural" and not a perfume like fragrance. As long as you are OK with the scent, the green color (only when in the jar, won't turn your skin green) and a lighter feeling cream, this is a good choice and worth a shot if you are looking for something new.

After just a day, I saw that my skin was smoother, my pores looked smaller, wrinkles were less and the natural red in my face was gone. I have very sensitive skin so it was a relief to finally find a product that works!

While I don't agree that it's 'better' than retinol, it is an acceptable substitute for those whose skin can't tolerate retinols. I'm not seeing huge improvements over my usual go-to retinol night cream but I'm not backsliding either. Plus, the price is decent - a plus. It's gentle and smells good, too, so if you're looking for a good sub for retinol, give it a try.

This new beauty line is firmly in the mid-range of non-drugstore brands. This one features the holy trinity, for me, of skincare miracle ingredients: hyaluronic acid for better moisture absorption and retention, Vitamin C for brightening and refining and Bakuchiol, a less harsh, more natural version of Retinol, for smoothing.All in all, this is a decent cream for a price that's not bad when compared to other premium brands. Goes on pretty light, absorbs quickly and doesn't leave face feeling shiny or sticky, which I liked a lot. Had a bit of a scent I could do without, but nothing overpowering. Didn't leave my skin quite as soft or hydrated as my favorite marine or water creams do, and would love to see a built-in sunscreen version for daily use, as no ingredient is better at anti-aging than avoiding UV damage.Still, all in all, a good product, that I liked, but didn't love.

Tried for 2 weeks. Product broke my face out and I didn't see any change. I use twice a day. Morning and prior to bedtime

Product had no seal, was scooped out and is literally smaller than those tiny vasoline jars. It's a monumental rip-off and waste of money, any store bought lotion is a much better option. Pass!

I do not see the difference, except it made my skin dry and rough. This is just wasting your time and money

For some reason I saw something I thought was a joke, the cream was very small I thought Is something they wanted me to try for free I thought is sample but it was the actual cream, I don’t think I want to deal with the salee

I’m not gonna give up at this moisturizer but it’s not for my drier skin. Just kept on applying later after layer and Still just not enough moisture for my needs.
