Review: Yves Rocher Derma soothing day moisturizer--a dupe for Clinique moisture surge intense skin fortifying hydrator gel-creme






Yves Rocher Derma soothing day moisturizer is definitely a dupe for Clinique moisture surge.

YR's moisturizer is housed in a small portable jar with a pink lid. The jar looks small though it contains 50 ml.

The moisturizer is supposed to be a day time moisturizer without spf. I checked the ingredient list and did not find any sunscreen ingredients so I think you can use it in the night time as well.

I do not understand why some products claim to be day cream but with no SPF in it. I mean why bother it if it's just a moisturizer which can be used anytime anywhere?

The texture of Yves Rocher's Derma Soothing day moisturizer is gel to cream. It's lightweight, yet moisturizing.

 

You can see from the picture above, the textures are similar between the two. Clinique is a little bit (just a very tiny little bit) watery than YR. But when you apply it on the skin, you can not feel the difference. They are both light weight, hydrating and they do not irritate your skin at all.

Both of them claim to be suitable for sensitive skin, however, they do have some very light scent to it. Clinique is with a chemical scent while YR is floral. But the scent is really not detectable and it disappears immediately once you blend the cream into your skin.

All in all, if you like the texture and the feeling of Clinique moisture surge and do not want to spend more than 50 dollars for a jar of 50ml gel cream, give YR a try. At the price tag of $27 CAD it cannot go wrong--especially when it's 50% off!!
