I have tried tons of different moisturizers for my sahara desert dry, flaky skin. From Dr. Barbara Sturm, to La Mer on the high end, lower end, nearly all the popular ones like La Roche Posay to CeraVe. NONE of them worked on my skin! What I have found is that those moisturizers feel good on the skin upon initial application, but then after a few hours dissipate on my desert skin. I had seen BloomEffects on socials and how the founder had irritated eczema skin but after using the royal tulip nectar, it moisturized and calmed her skin. I knew I had to try it! I thought what's the worst that could happen, other than it being like all the others and just dissipating on me! I am so over the moon to finally be able to say my hunt has now ended because I finally found something that actually moisturizes my sahara skin, and DOESN'T dissipate after a few hours!! My skin stays hydrated, juicy, and plump all day!! A HUGE WIN!! I will never put anything else on my skin now! You have a customer for life. Excellent product!!!!!
