@SkincareLover87 Here is a product review from beautypedia on SUPPLE moisture rich silk cream from Tatcha...I really want to like the line, but I keep reading reviews like this one for its products:

SUPPLE Moisture Rich Silk Cream contains some good smoothing and skin-repairing ingredients for normal to dry skin, but it's absolutely not worth its high price. Furthermore, the choice of jar packaging is very disappointing. We explain why in the More Info section, but briefly, the jar packaging exposes this product's plant extracts to air and light, causing them to lose their effectiveness.

If the price and the poor packaging aren't enough to deter you, consider that, despite the name, this moisturizer contains enough alcohol (the bad kind) so it can put your skin at risk of being irritated and cause free radical damage. It has a silky gel-cream texture, but so do lots of other moisturizers that cost less, come in airtight packaging, and contain a more impressive mix of anti-aging ingredients.

There just isn't a good reason to invest in this moisturizer; you'll find many superior options on our list of Best Moisturizers.

PROS:

• Contains some good moisturizing ingredients, though it's not as rich as the name implies.

CONS:

• Jar packaging won't keep the light- and air-sensitive ingredients stable during use.
• Unabashedly similar to Tatcha's Deep Brightening Serum.
• Amount of alcohol poses a risk of irritation and free-radical damage, causing skin to tingle on application.
• Somewhat tacky finish isn't as elegant as you might expect from a moisturizer in this price range.

Hi, am experiencing dryness for the first time in my life due to health reasons including aggressive treatment/medications and long term hospitalization.  So, had a facial at Sephora.  We used exactly the same product mix, except on one side Tatcha Silk, the other side Tatcha Water Cream. Took samples home for evening routine. Absolutely felt the difference .  The cheekbone area was dry on the side with the water cream, and moisturized on the side with the silk cream.  Hope this helps.
