Avalon Organics Vitamin C Skin Moisturizer

Overview

A 1.7 fl oz vitamin C cream from Avalon Organics' riche creme line, formulated for sensitive skin and addressing dryness, made in the United States.

The formula centers on vitamin C for hydration rather than exfoliation or anti-acne benefits, and it's labeled sodium laureth sulfate free, cruelty free, natural and organic. It comes in a jar rather than a pump, which is typical for richer cream textures.

• 1.7 fluid ounce jar
• Vitamin C key ingredient
• Formulated for sensitive, dry skin
• Cruelty free, natural, organic

Who it's for

Dry, sensitive skin types looking for a natural or organic-labeled cream moisturizer are the target audience. Less useful if you want an oil-control or anti-acne formula, since this is positioned purely around hydration.

Pros and cons

Performance notes

A jar-packed cream texture tends to sit richer on skin than a lotion or gel, which fits its stated job of addressing dryness on sensitive skin types. Vitamin C as the named ingredient points to a hydration and brightening role rather than exfoliation or acne treatment.
