I usually love Chanel products, but this was a huge disappointment. I was expecting this to be comparable to Age Delay since the SA told me this was supposed to be AD's replacement. This was a huge st...Read more

I have this in the fluid pump bottle. I like the pump bottles because they are more hygienic. The texture is silky and this would be for normal/combo skin. It sinks in quickly and mattifies your skin ...Read more
