URIAGE Aqua Precis Moisturising Refreshing Cream Gel (Sample)



i have soooooo many sample products from EVERYWHERE and this shall be my first sample review

really love this product!
its consistency is not as heavy as regular cream, but rather light and slightly watery (thermal water)
so hence the name CREAM GEL

it is said to rely on 'osmolytes' to perfectly hydrate the skin, and yes it does prove this right because my skin absorbed this cream gel very quickly indeed!
during application, it initially felt a little sticky upon first contact between skin and product, but under less than a minute, all stickiness vanished and my skin felt silkyyy

also, it is oil free, paraben-free and proclaims to reduce the shine of your skin by 72% (seriously accurate how do we even measure this?!)
so this is probably ideal under your makeup as the last stage of skincare substituting cream

it does however, have a fragrance that i cant put my finger on as to what the exact smell reminds me of
its not exactly repelling, but smelling too much of  it doesnt seem to be good either
you understand that feeling?
i smelled it for a good few minutes, trying to figure out what exactly it was, but my nose ended up hurting from smelling it too much instead haha

overall, this is a good product that is worth recommending if you need something moisturising as the last step of your skincare routine to finalise everything
but personally i hate all this overuse of 'techy stuff' manipulated to derive such final products because it sounds too complicated and expensive for my taste

and yes, this product is expensive too
