this is was the only one in the series of aqua fusion which didn't have alcohol high up the ingredients list. lancome are refusing to part with the notion that alcohol has no moisturizing properties, quite the contract, and it seems odd that they keep integrating it to their moisutizers aimed at combination-oily skin. havn't we past that notion like 5 years ago??
anyway, this was the only one in the bunch worth drying for my dry-parched skin. the ingredients list was good,even impressive, with silicones, shea butter, some anti-oxidants and water binding agents.
as usual with lancome, the fragrance is there, but not overly fragranced as lancome used to have in their moisturizers. there is improvment there.
this is quite light in consistancy, but defenatly goes on very smooth and supple on skin. this would NOT work for combination oily skin - defenatly for drier skin types only , as said so correctly on the label.
it is absoultely silky, rich and smooth. it will stay on top for awhile, but not greasy. it would work well as others for the dry winter months and for water-thirsty skins.
