Had high hopes!

Unfortunately Tarte drink of H2o hydrating boost was not what my skin needed. I usually like gel moisturizers because they seem to absorb well and leave my skin feeling smooth and not overly shiny. When I applied it to my face it had a thick, sticky gel like feel and rather than glide on my skin like most other gel moisturizers I really had to work it into my skin. After it was applied it seemed to just sit on top of my skin. I was hoping if I gave it a few minutes it would absorb completely but unfortunately it did not. It could be that this would be better suited for someone with dry skin. Perhaps dry skin would soak it up better but it did nothing for my normal to combination skin.

LOVE IT

This product is soooo good!!!! I love the texture and smell. It is super hydrating but also not too hydrtating for my combination skin. Have repurchased 2x already!!!

This moisturizer is amazing! It is honestly so refreshing on the skin! Its hydrating and the gel formula is cooling and soothing. It works great as a primer for underneath makeup as well. I wish they had a version with SPF in it as well, then it would be the perfect moisturizer! I think this would work well for all skin types!

This is the most underrated gel type moisturizer ever. It's amazing. I have combo skin- both extremely dry, cracked and flaky as well as extremely oily and slick and this stuff soothes both types! I was using a higher end thick moisturizer for my dry patches that was barely touching the surface of the problem before I found this, and I will never go back! My dry patches went away after 2 or 3 uses and haven't been back since. Even my oily zones are nice and balanced. My skin feels so soft and so smooth all the time, and a little goes a long way! It smells kind of like seaweed to me, but it's not overpowering on the skin. Highly highly HIGHLY recommend!

I don't mind this stuff, but I'm glad I only got the travel sized version. It leaves my skin feeling sticky; which I'm not a fan of. I love products that leave my skin feeling smooth even if it's a hydrating cream. I know a lot of people love this cream, but if you're not into the sticky feeling I would turn to another product.

This is gel like moisturizer - which I'm not a fan of to use during the day under my make up. (I prefer cream moisturizers under make up so that it has something easier to adhere to). But it's great as a refreshing evening moisturizer. It has an orangey citrus scent and definitely gives plenty of moisture to the skin

I got this as a sample and loved using it! It's moisturizing and soothing for my skin with a light fresh scent that made my face feel great. I used this together with the facial mist in the same line and loved the combination. I'm excited to try the other products in the Rainforest of the Sea line!

I've been using this for a few days now and I am absolutely loving it. The gel formula is very cool, it's lightweight and doesn't feel sticky or make my skin feel greasy. I love that I only need to use a tiny bit of product, which makes spending the money so much more worth it. The scent is very relaxing and it makes my skin feel and look great. You get quite a bit of product for $47. I will absolutely be buying this moisturizing gel again in the future.

Super fresh scent. Very light feel for the amount of moisture it provides. Little goes along way. Wake up feeling more refreshed when used under makeup seems to go on smoother.
