Aveda Advanced Botanical Kinetics Plumping Cream | Firming and visibly reducing wrinkles | Vegan | Full Size | Refillable | 1.7 Fl Oz

This is a very rich cream. I could see someone who has resilient, non acne prone, dry skin loving this cream. Unfortunately that is not me!This cream contains a very heavy oliec load-a wide and large concentration of a variety of plant and seed oils and butters and their derivatives. My skin is acne prone and shudders reading the ingredient list. But that's just my skin! The patch test I did on my hand resulted in soft and moisturizered skin, so bummer for me might be a win for you!It also is LOADED with essential oils PLUS fragrance/parfum (a common skin irritant) PLUS a plethora of natural, but known skin sensitizers (they are basically essential oils and provide scent factors): citral, limonene, linalool, citronellol, geraniol, eugenol, pinene, terpinolene, terpineol. I'm used to seeing limonene and linalool, but that is quite the list. The scent of the cream is a pleasant, citrus meets woodsy and I could see it appealing to both men and women. For me, it triggers headaches and bothers my sinus and throat. But again, your mileage may vary, I just wanted to make sure to point this out in case I have some skin/sinus twins out there shopping for a cream!There are also a lot of skin goodies ingredients like squalane, HA, a variety of peptides and some beneficial botanical extracts. IMHO there isn't not enough skin tech innovation or unique ingredient formulation to justify the price tag and risk a skin reaction or clogged pores, but to each their own!
