Review: Dior Hydra Life Pro-Youth Sorbet Creme

Today I want to talk about Dior Hydra Life Pro-Youth Sorbet Creme. This would be my last review about Hydra Life series. I got this at the same time as my Dior Hydra Life Pro-Youth Sorbet Eye Creme which is about two months ago and I've been using it every night as my night cream.


The outside packaging and the top of the box, similar to other products in the same line. Again it's plastic wrapped and sealed.




The jar itself looks very similar to the Eye Creme as well except that the Sorbet Creme (50ml) is a lot larger than the Eye Creme (15ml).


There's a foil seal under the lid to preserve the freshness of the cream. It also adds another layer of safety. 


The cream comes with a scoop applicator. This is very convenient as you don't have to touch the cream with your finger each time.


Different from the Eye Creme's off white color, the Sorbet Creme is actually light minty green, same as the glass jar. It's the cutest cream color I've ever seen. I was very excited when I see it. Maybe I'm just too silly.


Thoughts:

1. It's sold at $56 for 50ml. I think it's very affordable for the brand.

2. The floral scent is divine but not over powering. It fades away quickly after applying.

3. The texture of the cream is very light. They call it Sorbet Creme for a reason. It's just perfect for Summer. I use it as a night cream but it's fresh enough to be used as a day cream as well. It really melts into the skin without a greasy feeling.

4. The hydrating effect is great. It leaves my skin soft, hydrated but not oily.


Conclusion:

The Sorbet Creme is so far the best item I've tried from the Hydra Life line. If I rate the Protective Fluid SPF 15 5/10, Eye Creme 7/10, I will give this 10/10. Highly recommend this to normal and combination skin.



I put background information about Dior Gardens and the product at the end for your reference.

At the heart of protected sites that respect mankind and nature, the Dior Innovation Center selects plant resources with amazing benefits. Dior Extracts their purest part, enriches it and uses it to heighten the effectiveness of Hydra Life Skincare.

Dior becomes the creator of nature treasures.


Beyond hydration: youthfulness for the skin

At the heart of the Dior Gardens blossoms the secret of new, intense hydration that helps to actively preserve youthfulness by diffusing moisture.

Dior Innovation: Hydra Life combines 3 pure plant extracts derived from these gardens - Jisten, Centella and Black Rose - to offer the skin all the benefits of the Cellular Bio-Exaltation.

Results: TO THE SIGHT, the skin looks spectacularly smoothed and luminous. TO THE TOUCH, the skin texture is reinforced and the face regains its plumpness. AS FOR THE EXPERIENCE, the skin revels in unprecedented comfort.

Fresh, melt-away texture - Normal and combination skin.
