I was really excited when Crowdtap gave me the opportunity to try a sample Curél® Hydra Therapy for FREE. I have enjoyed the last wet skin moisture they sent me so I was even more excited to compare the two brands. The more I try, the more I know which one to recommend to others.
The first day I put it on I was a little turned off, almost immediately. I rubbed it on and noticed my hand felt oily. I kept rubbing it in and rubbing it in. But it never seemed to soak in. “OK” I thought, “Maybe I used too much.” I thought maybe it’d feel different once I dry off. But even after I dried off, I felt no moisture. It was as if I rubbed this all over and just wiped it off. Nothing soaked in. My skin felt… weird. Like it had a film on my skin or something. I don’t know, but I didn’t like it.
I tried it again a few times after so I can make sure it’s not a moisturizer that takes time to work. After using it for a week, and having the same results every time, I came to the conclusion that they must use a lot of oil or oily ingredients to make this lotion. I do not like it at all. I understand there might be a lot of people who do, but I am very particular about oily skin. I have always had a hard time finding lotions that I liked and didn’t make my skin feel so gross. Unfortunately, I have to add Curél® Hydra Therapy to that list.
