The Rich Cream - Multigalardonada crema hidratante

Worth the Hype

The Rich Cream is pure luxury for dry skin! The texture is rich and deeply hydrating, yet it absorbs beautifully without feeling greasy. My skin feels incredibly nourished, plump, and smooth, with a healthy glow. The TFC8® technology truly delivers on skin renewal—I’ve noticed improved elasticity and a more even tone over time. It’s a splurge, but the results make it worth it!

Not worth it for acne-prone skin

I received a 15ml sample as part of the Sephora Advent calendar. I have combination oily/ sensitive, hormomal acne-prone skin, so was cautious about trying it as it contained shea butter/potential pore cloggers. I also use retinol/prescription acne topicals. However their website stated that this product was their best for acne (here: https://augustinusbader.com/uk/en/evidence/treating-acne-prone-skin-skincare-solutions) so I decided to give it a go. Pros: did not irritate/sting my skin, smooth texture when applying. I can imagine it is great for dry skin. Cons: did not notice any improvement in acne/hyperpigmentation as marketed on their website. I was getting clogged pores on forehead/brow where I usually don’t experience acne. It also left a very greasy residue that sat on top of my skin, and felt unclean. Would definitely not pay full price for this.

Hydrated Skin

It’s by far my favorite night time moisturizer! My skin feels healthy, hydrated and soft.

LISTEN UP.

(Image for scale on the 1oz) If you have the disposable income + dull, normal to dry skin, you NEED this. I’ve been purchasing it for years with my own $$ (no incentivized review here - who gets that lucky anyway??) and recently tried switching to another moisturizer. Within a eeek, my skin looked dull and I’d lost my signature glow. Obviously don’t break the bank for it, but HECK YES it’s a worthy purchase if you’ve got the dough. The only moisturizer I’ve ever used that *actually* plumps & visibly tightens skin over time. And don’t worry, the moisture factor is immediate, immense, and there’s NOTHING else like it. You get what you pay for in this case.

amazing results, prohibitively pricey

extremely satisfied with the results of the sample I received of this product - i gasped! this was the best, most fast acting result i have ever received from a skincare product. i used it just one night and when i woke up my skin looked SO much smoother, healthy, and rejuvenated. (compared to other moisturizers i have tried, including the dermalogica moisturizing mask, clinique, and unrefined coconut oil). i am 29 and have fine lines, particularly laugh lines, near my nose and around my eyes. part of this is not drinking enough water, but also partly not having locked in a great skincare routine. i WISH i could use this cream regularly but can't currently justify the price, lol. will be looking for other products with the same or similar key ingredients until i can justify using this.

Great for undereye only

Only use for undereyes bc this is super greasy. But for underye prep this is a godsend. I have old lady dry undereye and only other one I can use is shisheido which is more like Vaseline.

Overpriced greasy product

The scent was horrible. It smelled like the product was bad, I did give it a chance, except it was extremely thick and greasy in my opinion, and it made me not want to use it. The packaging is gorgeous and it didn’t seem to help anything. Just a greasy residue that was left on my face.

smells like a box of old crayons

this stuff is horrible, made my face super greasy and the scent is unbearable

So not worth the $

Smells awful, firstly. Like it has expired or something? Greasy and sits on top of my face it seems. I don’t mind spending $ if my face loves it (hello La mer) but for the price, my gosh,don’t even bother. Plenty of other great products that are way cheaper.

This cream caused a reaction on my face!

My face had a reaction to this cream! I got a sample, used it, and you can see the result. It felt hot and burned very bad. Very disappointing!

The emperor has no clothes

I like the feel of the AB creams, especially the rich one. But the packaging does me in. Multiple times I have taken a new container with me on holiday only to have it run out after 3 days. Feels like a fraud

Good but not for me

I was really impressed with it at first but it does have a tight feeling to it after application. I must admit it did not break me out and immediately made my skin softer but that's about it. For the price I wouldn't say it's worth it but if you like lux brands then definitely pick it up. It does do something!
