Incredible product, truly unique compared to standard "on the shelf" skincare. I wasn't sure what to expect, maybe just better hydration - and what I got was that - and more! Noticeably brighter within days, smoother texture and visibly fewer lines. A tiny amount goes a LONG way (just like their Advanced Eye Cream). Both products I can now never live without. So grateful I found City Beauty.
This has a very easy texture to work with. I use for Defense against winds in the hot tub and while on the trails snowmobiling. It absorbs nicely and can be used under makeup. It's not greasy. The color & texture is pleasing. As with most City Beauty products ... a little goes a long way! I also love for sun nipped skin before bed.
After years of trying skincare products without seeing results... I was amazed to actually see results in the appearance of my skin's texture, reduced pore size and a more youthful glow. Still on my first jar of City Beauty's Blue Defense HydroGel but it won't be my last.
One of the best products I have ever used. Goes on easily, cooling, absorbs quickly, and friends have noticed that my skin looks great. Both people who know me and strangers! My skin is much more hydrated than ever before, more radiant, softer and supple. Great product!
I love everything about this product! Quickly absorbed, leaves my skin hydrated all day long.
This is the Only moisturizer that I will use! It's not oily, and does not produce little white pearls on my skin!
Love the way my skin looks and feels after using this product! This is my second jar and it certainly won't be my last!
I love how my skin feels after I apply Blue Hydration. I helps my make up go on smoother and keeps the appearance of fine lines to a minimum.
I'm in front of a screen for a good part of every day. I've discovered I'm often choosing Blue Defense - and it can also be layered with moisturizer.
This is super annoying. Twice now, you've had a special offer but the Blue Defense Gel is sold out.
When is this cream going to be back? A great moisture cream that really works. would buy again but sold out.
I love using the Blue Defense HydroGel. It feels so good on your skin. It is cooling and refreshing and stays on a long time. Will purchase more..
At age 72 my skin looks great. I prefer this gel for my body as well I am not embarrassed to go sleeveless!!
Love the way this feels. I haven't used it long enough to see a noticeable difference but City Beauty's line never disappoints!
For older skin, this moisturizer does what it promises. My foundation and powder doesn't look dry or feel dry.
I love this blue defense hydro gel it's it so cooling on the skin and perfect for summer
Blue Defense HydroGel feels luxurious when applied, but the real treat is that this cool-feeling skin care gel does what it promises. A number of years ago, I was an executive at the corporate office of a multi-national cosmetic company based in the United States. I was responsible for drug and department store promotion. I tell you this because I am a consumer with perhaps a little knowledge of the process that brings products to market. I am very impressed with the quality of City Beauty products --- the packaging and continuity, but especially the quality of City Beauty creams, lotions, gels and liquids that I use on my skin. They work as the labeling suggests. A skin care product that feels good on the skin is more likely to do more for the skin. I tried Multi-Action Sculpting Cream first. Now I have a host of products I use daily including this very special gel.
Love this cream it is very hydrating feel good on my skin. I love the scent. Very happy with my purchase
I am so delighted with this gel. It smells great and is so cooling and refreshing on my skin, it perks me up for the day ahead.
So cool and refreshing. Absorbs beautifully. My skin feels revived. I look forward to using it every day.
