I was hesitant to use it when I saw the texture of the product so I've decided to try it only at night.But when I woke up the next day,I'm surprised that my skin is not oily and my pores are also smaller.So I started using it even at daytime and within 4 days of using it,I'm impressed and of course will buy the full product soon.

What I like about this product is that it does not contain fillers or silicones---instead it's chock-full of natural ingredients. The smell is a bit like lavender and citrus combined, with a nutty undertone---not that pleasant but tolerable. It also moisturizes my skin quite well. It can be a bit tacky during first application but it settles quite nicely once absorbed. Acai berry has a lot of antioxidants so I guess this is good for damage repair. However I have't used the product for a longer period to vouch for its effectiveness on improving tone and skin clarity. But it is a good moisturizer overall and great for dry to combination skin.

On my 3rd night of using this moisturizer I saw visible results and they are amazing!My tone is visibly improved,my skin is taut and soft to the touch. The texture is thick,smell is just fine since its easily absorbed by the skin,smell does not linger. Im very happy with this sample,overall my skin looked improved with just 3 nights of using it,it's very effective. Down-side is-it's a bit pricey for me.

I have been using this product for the last six days and I can tell that my skin has improved a lot since day 1. I cannot even stop myself from staring at the mirror because my skin just looks different. Also, I did not get any redness, pimples, breakouts. I love it! TIP: Put it in the fridge to keep it fresh.

It has been three days since I started using the product and so far, I’d say that the effect is good!

I first used the product the night after I received it, I squeezed a pea-sized portion on my ring finger and massaged it on my face putting particular attention on my cheeks and neck. I also dabbed some on my T-Zone but concentration were more on the areas I initially mentioned.

PLUSS/ES:
• Light and easily absorbed by the skin: This is a major plus for me compared to other moisturizers that leave a feeling of heaviness plus the need to wait for a few minutes for it to dry off.
• Skin feels supple after application: This is perhaps of its airiness attribute. It doesn’t leave a cakey feel but your skin won’t feel so taut either.
• Skin stays smooth throughout the night as evidenced by your skin being soft to the touch in the morning. T-Zone is less oily as well.

DELTAS:
• Since it is very lightweight, one needs to apply the product right away. Otherwise, you’d need to put on some more for coverage.
• The scent is something I’m not especially fond of. It has a strong floral-like fragrance, quite similar to expired makeup.
• I used the moisturizer in the daytime and I had to use my oil-control sheets more often than normal. My face produced more sebum than usual, especially on the T-Zone area.

I'm torn between saying I won't buy this because of the price or I should buy it as two days in a row, I've received compliments as to how glowing my skin looks. Thus, a MAYBE. :)

I was excited to try this product because I love the Acai Damage Control Toning Mist to pieces. It was my first time to try the moisturizer counterpart and it was fortunate that I have tried the mist beforehand because the moisturizer has a more overwhelming scent than the toner. It was quite creamy and thick, close to a sunscreen, but I do love how it is absorbed well and good by the skin. It just takes a bit of patience. Because of the consistency, I wouldn't wear this under makeup, but I do love using it at night as I noticed it gives me soft supple skin in the morning.

I have very sensitive skin and the first time I applied the moisturizer into my skin I developed some rashes (just a few) but afterwards it disappeared. It's a bit sticky but after applying it,immediately I can feel that it moisturizes my skin. It is not recommended for daytime use because of our hot and humid weather, I tried it during the day and my face was so sticky and sweaty because it's a heavy moisturizer. I always use it at night, with just a few dabs into my face with gentle massage, the product is immediately absorbed by the skin. It's soft to touch, even after I wake up in the morning and wash my face, you can feel that it's working day by day. I have a few fine lines on my forehead and I notice that somehow it's starting to improve. Overall, I would say that this moisturizer works for me.

I have been using this for 3 days now and I am really pleased by how it was able to speed up healing some of the dark spots on my face. A few weeks ago, i suffered from a really bad allergy attack (from fish oil capsules!) that led to my face breaking out. The acne didn't heal perfectly so I was left with some pimple scars and dark spots on my face. Since then I have only been using Celeteque hyrdation moisturizer and dark spot brightener 2x a day. When I got this, I replaced the Celeteque moisturizer with this, and Im glad to report that it was able to do in 3 days what my previous routine had been slowly accomplishing for 2 weeks! The spots are not yet completely gone, but I'm already happy knowing that it will now only take days to heal, and not the weeks I previously thought. I also love the texture, it's heavyduty but lightweight at the same time. Your skin feels really hydrated but not oily and sticky. The only negative thing about this product that I can think of is the smell, thought it's not really that bad and overpowering and goes away after a few minutes, so this is definitely something you can overlook.. Overall, I would consider buying this product, but only during those worst-case scenarios, like after another nasty acne breakout.

While trying out this product, I read a lot of reviews about it here in Sample Room, that it's not advisable to be used during the day so I tried it out at night. Yet, the weather seemed to be really hot.

I washed my face first with my facial soap and applied the moisturizer afterwards. I made sure that my face and neck was evenly applied of the product. Within 3 days of using it, I noticed that the skin under my eyes turned lighter. The product is quite thick and creamy so I do not advise to put too much on your face because it may be sticky afterwards. The product smells like LINSEED OIL, it's an oil used for painting, and I really didn't like it. Nevertheless, the effectiveness of the product is A+. Based on my experience, It is really better to use it at night or when your are indoors specially in an air-conditioned area so it won't be sticky to the skin. For best results, it should be used daily. The price of the product is not really cheap but it is worth as an investment for your skin. :)

My first day applying this moisturizer, my 2 new pimples that are sprouting were prevented. After 3 days, I noticed that my skin was supple and the dry patches on the sides of my nose and brows were lessened. This also made my skin glow and radiant :) However, I'm not a fan of the smell, it goes away though, after 30 minutes or so.

I've been test-driving this thing for a week now, since my sample has arrived, and I am happy to report that I've been pleasantly surprised by its performance despite my initial misgivings. :) I have oily, acne-prone and sensitive skin; the type that's fussy with products and gives me hell at least once a month (if you know what I mean.) I had my doubts, since it was quite thick/heavy for a moisturizer and I was afraid it would exacerbate my skin's oiliness, or worse, break me out. Imagine my surprise, when I saw my post acne marks and scars(!) subside after using this product for just 3 days. The moisturizer didn't break me out, nor did it give me whiteheads, and my skin looks healthier, overall. It smells a bit like Frutella, and that's about the only issue I have with it, but it doesn't linger.

I only use it at night, and in combination with other products, so I could say that it does make a difference. I think this product is an investment, and definitely worth its full price.

For the past few days of using this product, I can say that I can visibly see the effectiveness of this product. My skin texture and tone have improved. I actually felt like my skin is glowing. My pores is now less visible, and though my skin felt moisturized, it's not oily. The cream is thick, but is easily absorbed and feels light on the skin. I'm just not sure about the scent. The lavender scent is quite strong, might be therapeutic (helps us to be calm and relaxed) during night time, i'm just not sure during the day time when you're out with other people. *c",)*

the smell is too strong for me but its okay because i know that its organic and natural. . i only use it at night because its thick and creamy perfect for cold weather. . it moisturizes your skin overnight and it feels smooth and soft when you wake up. . and yes the product name itself says that it is for damage-correcting. . i haven't use it that long so i cant attest to it yet. overall it is a must try product.

Upon receiving this Moisturizer, my mom and i immediately tried it on. Sad to say, our first impression wasn't that good. We didn't like the smell it gave off. Maybe, we were just not used to it but we really didn't like it.

In terms of its effectiveness, the product wasn't that sticky when used in low sunlight places. It gave that great feeling to our skin that i believed it did somewhat help in damage correcting.

BUT

In my honest opinion, this product would best suit a person when she would stay indoors. When we tried it on and went outdoors, our skins felt sticky and it didn't quite deliver. Being a sporty person, I guess its better used prior to sleeping, after a nice long bath This could be a good product for others. But in my opinion, I won't be buying it.

I have dry skin and I should be using a moisturizer to hydrate my face but I'm very picky about using any regular moisturizer available in the market since I have the tendency to break out. It's my first time using any Kiehl's product, and I am actually very impressed with their damage \-correcting moisturizer. I have only been using the product for a couple of days but I can already see and feel the difference on my face. My skin feels smoother and my pores seems smaller and not a pimple in sight. The only downside that i can see with Kiehl's damage correcting moisturizer is that it's a bit thick that using and applying it during the day can make the skin feel a bit sticky but other than that, its a great product and i will definitely be buying one for myself.

I wanted to try this because I needed help with some fine lines that are just slightly making themselves present under my eyes. It did not help with that but I suppose that it's not what this product is formulated for. As a basic moisturizer, I like that it had a serum-like consistency that was easily absorbed. It does give me fresh and supple skin in the morning, and my combo-oily skin likes it. Not HG but close.

I am very sensitive in trying out moisturizers as most tend to break me out. With less than a week of trying this product, I haven't experienced any break outs or irritation. Though the consistency is quite thick for my liking, I am surprised that it was easily absorbed by my skin. I normally apply this at night since I find that I cannot use this during hot times of the day. When I wake up in the morning, my skin feels supple and moisturized. Also, I love the smell. For some, it may be a bit off but I like that it smells very organic. This is a great product to try especially if you have extremely dry skin.

My skin has been experiencing a lot of dry patches lately (especially in my cheeks, eyebrows and nose) that’s why I wanted to try Kiehl's Açaí Damage-Correcting Moisturizer. After using it for one week I must say that I’m pretty satisfied with the results. In terms of moisturizing, it’s been a long time since I’ve felt my skin this soft which makes applying foundation and powder very easy. I also love the consistency of the product, it’s thick and I think it’s perfect as a night crème. The downside for me for this product is the breakouts. I don’t know if it’s just a reaction from switching to a new product but a few bumps showed just after one application. I also find the smell a bit strong. But overall, it delivers as a moisturizing crème. If my skin adjusts to it, I might buy it.

My skin can be very erratic. I used to have combo skin but lately, it has been very dry :( It's so dry to the point that I am constantly peeling and I can't put that much face makeup because my face ends up patchy. For so long I've been looking for a way to remedy this, but nothing would work. Moisturizers (even organic ones), masks and facial treatments - tried all that, no results. Some even worsened my condition.

This Kiehl's Açaí Damage-Correcting Moisturizer, however, worked like a charm! It's only been a few days but already, it has gotten rid of the peeling. I also love how it goes on my skin! It's thick in texture, but easy to spread. Another great point is that I believe it's very compatible with a lot of different products. I changed facial cleansers about three times while using this and it still worked the same. Didn't cause any breakouts for me. LOVE!!!

My only issue with this is the smell. This, (to me at least!!!) sort of smells like the hospital. It's not strong at all though and it practically goes away once applied so no biggie :)

Definitely purchasing the full-size :) Worth the P2,800.
