The Ordinary moisturiser review

The Ordinary moisturiser

Cheap, plain, and it works if you don't expect a spa.

7/104.4 / 5

The Ordinary Natural Moisturizing Factors is the cheap moisturiser people buy when they are tired of packaging. I used it morning and night. It is light, it has glycerin and hyaluronic acid, and it costs less than a sandwich. That is the whole pitch, and the reviews do not dress it up.Buyers who love it say it is enough and it does not sting. Buyers who leave it say it is not enough, full stop, especially in the cold. A few mention a tacky feel if you use too much or layer it badly. I put it on damp skin and it behaved. If you want a rich cream, this is the wrong bottle on purpose.
