Almost two years ago, I discovered beauty balms/creams. I still feel they are supremely underrated as products. I get a sunscreen, moisturizer, primer and concealer all in one saving me hundreds of dollars, and time! Spreading the word about beauty creams has become a personal mission of mine, so I tried L’Occitane Sublime Beauty Cream ($39. 1.3 oz.).

L’Occitane is renowned for their botanical blends and Sublime Beauty Cream is formulated with angelica and white iris, which gives it a potent, rosy aroma. The texture is velvety and light, blending easily into skin. It provides medium coverage with a matte finish. While it kept my skin hydrated and glowing throughout the day, I noticed as the day got longer, it started to oxidize to one shade darker.

L’Occitane Sublime Beauty Cream provides protection and hydration with a radiant finish. The botanical aromas are soothing without irritating the most sensitive skin. For $40, you get four quality products in one from a respectable leader in the beauty industry.
