Hello there 🙂
I'm super excited to share my thoughts on a cream I picked up on sale at Magnit Cosmetics:
Cream-Sunscreen for Face Organic Shop Coconut Yogurt
I've been using Neskaya Cosmetics for the past few years, but I've also tried Loreal and other mass-market brands from time to time. However, I think my youth used to forgive me, and I didn't notice any benefits, so I switched to creams recommended by my mom and close friends. I also use oils for my skin occasionally (jojoba, wheat, coconut, etc.). And sometimes I'll bring back cosmetics from my travels and use them too - one bottle lasts for about six months to a year (like a snail cream or something).
But this time, I just happened to see that there weren't many reviews on Organic Shop's Yogurt Cream, but they're great, so I decided to give it a try.
And now, let's see if my expectations were met...
Where to buy: Magnit Cosmetics, Yabloko, Letual, Podruga. Marketplaces... the choice is endless.
Price: In December, I got it on sale for a bit over 200 rubles. Now, I'm monitoring the price, and it's around 280-300 rubles per 50ml tube (but 50ml is a great volume - it'll last a long time).

Breaking it down on EcoGlow:
Appearance
The packaging is a soft blue, and the lid was initially sealed with a protective plug (which I've since removed, of course),
The cream comes out easily when you press the tube.
I've noticed that after some time, a weird sort of bronzer-like residue starts to form on the surface. It's like when you mix a regular moisturizer with a highlighter or something to give it a bit of a glow.
However, when I applied the cream to my skin and blended it in, I didn't notice any shiny streaks. To be honest, I'm still a bit puzzled - how does it manage to erase fatigue lines without containing any 'highlighting' agents... But you'll see my results later, and we can decide together whether it's worth the cash or just a waste of money.)
The cream itself and how it looks on my skin
The cream has a light, creamy texture that's almost translucent.
The scent
It's got a light, pleasant, sweet, and subtle aroma that's reminiscent of coconut and a hint of peach. It's really understated, but nice.
Instructions:
Apply a small amount of cream to clean, dry skin on your face and neck, using gentle massaging motions.

My experience
After a while, I get this feeling like there's something extra on my face, and I just want to wipe it off. That's exactly how this cream feels on my skin.
But at the same time, my skin feels softer and even silkier.
The cream gives it a slightly hydrated look, without any tightness. It's almost like aloe vera or baby cream, but without the greasy sheen that you need to wipe off with a tissue.
I apply the cream every morning before heading to work.
I've been using it for a week, but I haven't tested it extensively on my makeup base. For me, a makeup base is just about applying some eyeshadow and brow gel, and keeping things hygienic.
So, I've only been evaluating it on clean skin.
If it weren't for the lingering feeling of a mask that hasn't fully absorbed, I'd give this cream a solid 4 out of 5 stars and recommend it to anyone looking for a mass-market option.

A New Year's gift for yourself to keep the party going. This gel is amazing – all the Iv Roshe gels are fantastic!
Nose strips for clean noses. They do a great job of removing blackheads and dirt, but I wish they came in a larger size.
