There are certain things that we’ve incorporated into our beauty regimen over the years because at a very base level, they just feel good on the skin. The cooling sensation of Dr. Bronner’s peppermint soap after the beach and the cathartic effect of massaging a quarter-size dollop of Josie Maran’s Argan Oil onto a freshly cleansed face before bed are both on this list. And now so is Eve Lom’s new TLC Radiance Cream, which we test-drove this past weekend. Somewhat of a diffusion effort from the Czechoslovakia-born facialist, it’s a lighter version of her rich TLC Cream and therefore wears a bit easier, making it a better bet for daytime use. The super-hydrating, lifting formula has both rosehip seed oil to boost collagen production and essences of Bulgarian rose Otto for a sweet, crisp fragrance that works almost as well as the aroma of coffee grounds when it comes to providing morning rejuvenation (almost). Small silica mica flecks act as optical diffusers to soften lines and imperfections while ingredients like oat kernel help restore firmness. There are abundant claims of increased elasticity, free-radical protection, and crow’s-feet reduction in the press release, but it’s the way that the cream just seems to melt into the skin, dispersing its fresh scent as it glides over every facial contour, that keeps us coming back for more.

Great review! Sometimes certain products are more about the scent or the feel than the actual results, but in this case, it seems like both are worth the money.
