Skin Care Review: Dr. Brandt Lineless Cream

by Denise Ferraro, Buffalo, NY USA

Rating
Good

Benefits
Supposedly has potent antioxidant ingredients

Drawbacks
The orange oils gave me hives on my cheeks. Not moisturizing enough.

Details
I have been interested in beauty products since I was a teenager. I have worked as a makeup artist for Lancome,, and have done wedding makeup on the side. I love skin care products,,, but I am noticing that the fragrant plant oils like lemon oil, grapefruit and orange are giving me an allergic reaction!! I am very label savvy,, and am getting more and more knowledgeable with every purchase that I make. I just gave this lineless cream to my Mom. I really need to sample these formulations before I waste my money. I have tried the new sensitive skin line from Dove,, liked that it was pretty 'pure' for the skin,, but don't find it moisturizing enough. I'm really looking for that wonderful moisturizer, that is void of alot of synthetics,, color,, fragrance,, etc,, that just makes my skin look really healthy and hydrated. I am definitely not trying to find a 'miracle' anti-wrinkle potion. I am only 37,, so my skin has been pretty good. I live in a cold climate,, so I am dry for 4-5 months in the winter time. I have slight smile lines in the eye area,, and am just starting to see small lines on my face. I am fair skinned,, a Caucasian,, with only a couple of sun-induced freckles near my eyes. This is my 3rd pregnancy,, and I can honestly say this is the worst my skin has EVER been in my life!! I have breakouts,, redness,,, and am super sensitive!! I do not believe that a cream has to be very expensive to work,, but I am finding that the less expensive ones have a lot of mineral oils,,, fragrance,, etc. So I am still searching for a moisturizer that I will want to be a "keeper" !!!

Conclusions
I have to watch out for lemon, orange and grapefruit oils!!
