Aubrey Organics Rosa Mosqueta Moisturizing Cream

A permanent fixture in my bathroom

Aubrey Rosa Mosqueta is a pinky-brown, lightly-scented, and (for some reason) slightly iridescent-looking cream. I use this cream on my face with pretty great results. Although it appears quite rich when it comes out of the bottle, I would actually describe it as a lighter face cream (in fact, I add a drop of oil to it when my face is really dry). What I most appreciate about this stuff is that it sinks in completely and does not leave any sort of sheen or film on my face. Because my face is always the focus of aggressive (futile?) anti-aging strategies, it always seems to be in some stage of peeling or in some bad dry-combo state. This cream helps big time because, In addition to not leaving a film, it provides a slip that makes lightly rubbing off a lot of my peelies without over-working the skin an actuality (instead of a personal dream). Overall, I have to say that if you're looking for a face cream that won't clog your pores, won't leave a film, and will be flexible enough to add to any makeup routine, Aubrey could be it.
