Bottom Line: Beats all my other moisturizers from drugstore to Kbeauty to high ends, and it’s the only moisturizer I’ve ever repurchased. Part of my best skin ever routine. It’s not magic, but it’s really, really good and works for sensitive/acne/dry/eczema-prone skin.
I rarely purchase skincare products twice because I a) should not be trusted with the Sephora app and b) I live in Asia now and have access to incredible skincare at absurd prices. I’ve used so many products out there: Sunday Riley, Drunk Elephant, and similar high end lines; The Ordinary and Inkey List and other science focused affordable lines; and various dermatologist favorites like CeraVe. I used up my first jar about a year ago and while I loved it, I didn’t intend to buy this again since I have so many I wanted to use up. But, I kept thinking about this moisturizer. I realized that the best skin I’ve ever had (adult hormonal/stress-induced acne with eczema and sensitive skin with high environmental stressors) was when I was nearly exclusively using True Belif Aqua Bomb. I’ve tried other products from them and they’re good, but this one…y’allllll.
Deets: It has a light-ish fragrance but doesn’t irritate my skin at all. For reference, everyone I know or follow on social seems to adore Tula but I can’t use it because of the heavy fragrance. The texture is a light gel that moisturizes better than some heavy creams I have (still love ‘em though, eczema babes get me). I prefer it over Laneige sleep mask and every Sunday Riley or Drunk Elephant moisturizer I’ve had, and I LOVE my derm-approved Target/affordable skincare, but this one beats them all.
