so that in itself is a good trick i hope to be able to continue [SEP] i used this product when i lived in californias central valley because it kept my skin consistent in the varied temps of living in a desert climate it became harder to find the lumene line in general without the spf additive so i switched to another line when i moved to southern california by the beach last year i moved to phoenix a desert area again with wildly varying temperatures and i noticed my facial skin this winter was getting red and blistery the corners of my eyes were even beginning to droop as my skin was becoming tight i bought this on nov used it for two days and my skin is dewey and back to normal and i am a year old man so that in itself is a good trick i hope to be able to continue to find this line without the spf because i will become a devotee once again
