I have used Estee Lauder for about 30 years now, and I have tried pretty much every creme they have made. This creme is one the underrated products that Estee Lauder do not campaign over, but in my opinion, Hydrationist is one of the best moisturizer for dry, older skin. I would try their new cremes, but I always go back to this one. This creme is one of their least expensive ones also. Other expensive cremes such as Re-Nutriv are nice, but they don't moisturize like Hydrationist. Having said that, you do need to use a good serum from the Advanced Night Repair or the Re-Nutriv line before you apply Hydrationist for the best result.
This is the best moisturizer I've ever used!! The crème is light, easily absorbs into your skin and never leaves a greasy feeling. I live in an arctic area with very cold, dry winters and this crème works to keep my skin moist and soft. It's versatile and I use it on my face, neck and hands every day.
