The Lancôme Absolue Revitalizing & Brightening Soft Cream Review

Every time winter rolls around it takes me by surprise. Despite having lived in the Northeast my entire life, I still somehow manage to get jolted when I walk outside to subzero temperatures. This results in me forgetting key wintertime accessories—such as gloves or a scarf to cover the bottom-half of my face—which exacerbates my already-dry skin. Luckily, my dry skin was comforted after applications of the Lancôme Absolue Revitalizing & Brightening Soft Cream.

This isn’t to say you shouldn’t wear gloves or scarves, but if you can sympathize with the aforementioned situation, then try the Lancôme Absolue Revitalizing & Brightening Soft Cream for yourself. After applying it onto my skin for a week, my skin felt plumped with hydration and undeniably soft. Even the scent of the cream was enjoyable—light enough not to mask my perfume, but also full-bodied enough to be an aromatic experience all on its own if you wanted it to be.

How to Use the Lancôme Absolue Revitalizing & Brightening Soft Cream

Apply the cream to the skin on your face, neck, or hands. Rub it in gently and enjoy a silky, glowing finish.
