I first learned about the Benton brand, and I was impressed by the fact that they don't do animal testing and use plant-based ingredients. The packaging is carrot-like in its vibrant orange design, which I personally find cheerful and beautiful. The cream is a light beige color, not too runny or thick, with a texture that's easy to spread evenly on the face. It's somewhere between a lotion and a cream. The application is incredibly smooth and pleasant. The 'radiance' described in the product introduction is an accurate description. After application, the skin has a subtle glow and a naturally dewy look, which I really liked. The absorption is very fast. It's not an overly emollient cream, and it sinks in quickly, leaving the surface feeling soft and not sticky at all. I can immediately feel the hydrating effects. During dry seasons, some fast-absorbing products can leave the skin feeling parched, but this one provides sufficient moisture, which I'm very satisfied with. It pairs well with various toners without causing any issues or irritation. When used with oils or layered multiple times, the cream's benefits are amplified. Despite being a new brand to me, I had no trouble using it, and the positive experience with the cream has made me interested in exploring more products from this brand.

The cream has a carrot-like scent, which I personally don't enjoy. However, based on other reviews I've seen, many people seem to like the fragrance, so this could be a divisive aspect. The moisturizing effect doesn't last as long as I'd like. Using it with an ampoule or oil would likely improve the longevity. The quantity seems a bit small. I wish the product came in a larger size.

As mentioned in the previous feedback, the moisturizing effect doesn't last as long as I'd like. To address this, I've found that layering the cream works well. In the morning, I mix it with an oil to create a more nourishing base. Then, I apply it once right after cleansing in the evening, and again before bed. Layering it this way seems to extend the moisturizing benefits. When I apply it in very thin layers, two or three times, I don't experience any lack of hydration. I'd recommend trying the layering approach, applying it like you would a toner. Using it in combination with an ampoule is also a good idea.
