How many times have I told to myself that I should never ever buy a beauty product without testing and smelling it first yet here I am. It smells awful. I usually like sandalwood smell (when I actually smell the tree), but this is bad.
I can't get over it, as well as I can't get over the yellowish color.

This is good for moisturising dry skin. It keeps my dry flakes at bay all day, and sits well under makeupWinter Skin Sorted
I really liked this product to be used as my winter moisturiser, as it packs an extra hydration punch. Really gorgeous ingredients that nourish and hydrate the skinaverage

I really enjoyed using this product. It left my skin hydrating, smooth and soft. I have yet to find a moisturiser that I love, but this definitely ticks many boxes. Worth the money, and pleasantly surprised to see it didn't aggravate my sensitive and dry skin.Thick, maybe not best for me
Lovely smell but find it quite a thick cream to use. I feel like it may not be the best for my skin typeAmazing
I bought this for my partner. She loves it and her skin has really benefited from it. I will continue to purchase.
My everyday cream
I use this every day. It's quite thick and it feels like a protective barrier on the skin. My face always feels nice and smooth when I wash it off at the end of the day. I recommend trying it.Great
I have to say I was pleasantly surprised by this product. I used to buy La Mer soft cream and it was not as hydrating as this one. This cream keeps my skin moisturised but absorbs quickly and the scent is divine. I will surely buy it again.Nice face cream, but not the best I've used
This is a lovely face cream, and smells quite nice. The jar does last a long time. However my skin has become increasing dryer as I've gotten older and this cream isn't hydrating enough for me. If you prefer a thicker moisturiser I would try something else. The cost was an additional reason I wouldn't repurchase, it was quite expensive compared to similar products.Moisturizing but reactive
First off, NOT happy with this price increase, it's a heavy jump and as much as I love aesop products, it's way too much. Onto the product, this is meant for sensitive skin but it actually made me break out!Good for dry skin
This is nice for dryer skin! I have tried a few in the range and this is up there at the top to try!Lovely!
I bought this for my partner. She loves it and her skin has really benefited from it. I will continue to purchase.Makes me break out!
This is meant for sensitive skin but it makes me break out! I've tried the other aesop face creams like mandarin, primrose and parsley and had no issues with them, but there must be something in the camellia nut that doesn't agree with my sensitive skin!AESOP CAMELLIA NUT FACIAL HYDRATING CREAM
I absolutely love this face cream. I bought on the strength of the reviews here and am so glad I did. My skin really dries out over winter and this offers the perfect balance of rehydration without being too heavy. It absorbs brilliantly into my skin rather than just coating it like some other face creams can. I thoroughly recommend.Not for my skin
I got a few samples of this and loved it at first - it's moisturizing but not too heavy and absorbs quickly. I have sensitive, combination skin and after buying a full jar and using it for 2 months, I found that it made my skin break out! I haven't had this issue with any other aesop cream so it must be something, maybe the camellia nut..Nice moisturiser
I really liked this product to be used as my winter moisturiser but not summer. However would like if they had some spf added to it as well. Overall good product.good
This cream is very moisturizing and suitable for winter. It absorbs quickly. My face is much softer after using this cream.I love it and i will buy it back.Most nourishing moisturiser ever
Cannot go wrong with this cream it’s such a dream to use day and night and has made my skin to clear and radiant!Amazing
It is very expensive, but worth it, love the smell its amazing and fantastic for re-hydrating my dry skin.Good for dry skin
I've been using this lately and it's good for dry skin. The scent isn't too strong and though it's hydrating it doesn't feel greasy and absorbs quicklyGreat
I find this cream really good for my skin, I would highly recommend it, in fact I would highly recommend Aesop products. Since I discovered them. I have only used them.Good but expensive
This is a great moisturiser and i use it religiously. It works well with my dry and sensitive skin and provides a smooth base for makeup though i think it is kind of expensive. The coconut oil used in this product allows for maximum moisture, especially in the winter. I would recommend this productBeautiful smelling, very hydrating cream.
I have quite dry skin, and this cream goes on smoothly and leaves my face feeling super soft and hydrated. It smells nice, and I find a little goes a long way. It really lasts forever! I use it as my day cream on my face, neck, and decolletage and find it sinks in well without leaving any stickiness or excess oil. Aesop products are a bit pricey but well worth the expense, in my experience.Lovely
I love the smell and feel of this moisturiser- it’s very light and fresh and gentle. Expensive thoughLovely
Great day time moisturizer, doesn't irritate my sensitive skin. It is light though so i prefer to use something thicker at night.SO nourishing!
Lovely as a night cream for my dry and ageing skin. Goes on smoothly for a thick cream and you dont need a large amount to cover the face. I like the subtle scent that quickly disappears. This feels like a treat for my skin.moisturizing
It's quite a small jar but the cream is nice and moisturizing for my combination skin and my face feels very soft afterwards.moisturizing but not enough
i have dry skin and was recommended to try this. it is hydrating and moisturizing but not enough. if i use it alone, my skin feels better but i have to reapply often and it's not rich enough to be used as a night creamAmazing but Expensive
I used this as a sample when I ordered – I was a little worried because the texture appeared greasy and creamy (I have oily, sensitive skin) but it left my face moisturised and soft the next morning. Seems to have restorative properties too. Only four stars though for the expensive price tag!Love the scent
Aesop products have such a nice scent. I've tried a few of their face creams and this one is more moisturizing. Makes my skin and soft and smoothGood for sensitive skin
Nice hydrating cream that's suitable for sensitive skin. The cream is quite soothing as wellVery Hydrating
Really nice cream with a gorgeous scent that is hydrating and leaves my skin smooth and softBeautiful texture and moisture
I'm not one for complicated skin care and during my second pregnancy my skin went very dry. Most days I used water or at most a mild cleanser with no need for any other product. I'm also prone to breakouts and have adult acne so I'm very careful and picky with what moisturiser I use.
I've found the Aesop Camellia Nut Facial Hydrating Cream beautifully soft and provided the required moisture without making my skin break out or feeling clogged. I would recommend it if you're looking for something more moisturising than the Aesop Mandarin Facial Hydrating Cream.Delicious!
Smells great and is so smooth and beautiful. I have very dry skin and it keeps me moisturized with just one nightly applicationOther people love it!
This moisturiser is pretty much my worst nightmare - full of things like coconut oil (which blocks my pores) and essential oils which irritate my skin and cause breakouts. However - I am clearly not the person this cream was designed for! My friend has super-dry skin and swears by this - weird jar packaging and all. So, I give a thumbs' up for her and a thumbs' down for me... averaging out at 3 stars!Best moisturiser EVER
Skin type: dry and sensitive
This is the most beautiful moisturiser I have ever tried. I have been using this now for 3.5 years and have no plans on changing.
I had many issues trying to find the perfect facial moisturiser - they either caused skin issues or simply didn't provide hydration.
My mother and sister hassled me to try this so I got a sample and was hooked. Its a really thin formula, but provides the BEST hydration. A tiny bit covers your entire face and the 120ml bottle lasts me an entire year using it both morning and night(so the $73 price tag is actually quite affordable - side note: Aesop REDUCED the price on this product over the years so extra EXTRA good!).
I'm not fussed on the smell, it smells like herbs, but it doesn't bother me.
When my skin is having a tantrum (I have allergies and my skin reacts to pretty much anything) this moisturiser actually soothes my skin, which has never happened before with any moisturiser.
Definitely a holy grail item, this is my first long-term relationship with a facial moisturiser :)
best aesop product
winter essential
keeps my skin nice during those winter months that can dry out my skin
Love love - my new favourite
This is my perfect moisturiser!
While it is a little pricey, the jar does hold a lot of product.
I use this with a vitamin C serum and it leaves my skin so plump and hydrated.
The great thing about this is that you can use it with any other serums eg. retinoid etc. and you don't have to worry about any irritation because of the ingredients AESOP uses.Love it
My skin is moist, plump and has no more dry patches. I couldn't recommend this product enough.Love it
My skin is moist, plump and has no more dry patches. I couldn't recommend this product enough.beautiful moisturiser
I have dry skin and found this was a nice lightweight moisturiser during summer but in winter I had to switch to something a bit heavier. I also found it worked better when I was using my B + C serums regularly as it just needed a little boost to take it from a good to a great moisturiser. Nice scent and gorgeous glass bottle instead of plastic packaging.
Super hydrating
I love this stuff because i tend to dry out my skin with acne face washes. so this helps balance my skin back out!!!Repurchased many times
This is a product I always tend to go back especially during the winter months. My skin adores it. I find I can use it both during the day and at night. At night I also add an Aesop oil to give me some extra hydration especially this time of the year as I get extremely dry skinLOVE! LOVE! LOVE!
Absolutely love this. I used this as cream after my PM shower. Works well, thick and super moisturising - only need a tad! I have an oily T-zone. This does not make my skin oily. Will continue to repurchase. Don't hesitate to buy this!
Trusty staple moisturiser!
I've been in a beauty relationship with Aesop products (including this luscious moisturiser) for about a year. This product is deliciously creamy, rich and ultra moisturising. To get the best out of your future relationship with this little dream jar of hydrating goodness, warm it up your hands and take some time to lovingly massage it into your skin. Pair this product with a few drops of the Aesop Damascan Rose Facial Treatment when winter rolls in and your skin will thank you.
If you are scrolling through reviews looking for a staple moisturiser, it's time to stop because this product is for you. I'm 25 with fair/sensitive/dry skin and my skin drinks this up morning and night without any adverse reactions. You'll catch yourself staring at your plump/bouncy/dewy skin after using this for a week or so.
This product gets 4 out of 5 because it's not my holy grail but it's damn well close.
I'm not sure how I feel about this product.
So i was given a sample of this moisturiser by adore after purchasing other products (thank you!). I am not sure how i feel about this product. I definitely did not like the smell of this product, At first it felt like it absorbed quite quickly and about ten minutes afterwards it felt very dewy. I didn't feel like it made a huge difference to my skin however i believe if i used this product more than once then it may have.Super Nourishing
I've been using this moisturiser for almost a year and I can't imagine using anything else. This moisturiser is very nourishing without being oily. I'm prone to dry skin, especially in winter and this has been perfect. I also have very sensitive skin and I've never had any reactions from the Aesop range.Skin Care
I read the previous reviews on this product before I ordered and thought it would be good, but I found it had a funny smell and felt tacky on my skin. I don't like it at all. Expensive mistake with this purchase.Beautiful
This is such a luxurious and lovely moisturiserHave used for years
I adore this moisturiser - I've been using it for years and especially love it at night with some rosehip oil mixed in - amazing. I did recommend it to a friend who had problems with the coconut oil making him break out, but I've never experienced this and it has been wonderful for my dry-ish, sensitive skin. The smell is incredible. Aesop's glass jars aren't particularly convenient for travel, I usually leave this one behind when I go away, but repurpose empties for hair ties and bobby pins! Overall an amazing product I'll continue to repurchase in this large size.Good!
I purchased this facial cream for my dad, he really like. Moisture skin without any oil he already empty 3 bottles.An old favourite
I love this moisturiser for night but I have found moisturisers on the market now that are almost as good for a lot less in price so unfortunately I do not buy this often anymore but it does give your skin great hydration.Fantastic
I love this product, I didn't realise how much I needed it. Does it exactly what it says it does. Will definitely keep using.Great skin, in a bottle!
What a fantastic product. My skin was suffering from patches of dryness and eczema. I've been through two bottles of this moisturiser now and my skin is incredible. It's moist, plump and has no more dry patches. I couldn't recommend this product and the Aesop range enough!!Husband favorites
It's suitable to sensitive dry skin. My husband loves this product. He has finished 4 bottles. Will continually to buy after finishing this bottle. I find it's too rich for my combination skin tho. I prefer the Primrose one.Love this product
I have a very oily t-zone, and dry face, after I use the cream for weeks, it balance my skin, now my skin become more healthier, really love the product,definitely will purchase again.Great Product
I've tried a few different face creams, but nothing compared to the goodness packed in this jar!!
You can feel the goodness sinking into your skin, and you know your skin will be thankful.
At first I thought it was a little on the expensive side but now know it's worth every penny.
Give it a try and you'll be hooked.The best moisturiser I've ever used.
I used to have very oily skin but for a variety of reasons I've found my skin has become dry and flaky more recently (particularly during winter). I went to Aesop for recommendations and bought this cream. I usually use their sage & zinc spf moisturiser however it has not been hydrating enough. THIS, on the other hand, is the best cream I've ever put on my face. It's very light but very powerful. I add the Damascan Rose oil a couple of nights a week for an extra boost. I cannot recommend this cream enough.Nourishing
Love this product... I have tried so many moisturisers and nothing has made my skin feel so plump and glowy. It's dreamy!Saved my skin!
I absolutely love this moisturiser and I am never without it! I have dry skin and had tried everything on the market - nothing worked until I bought this and I've never looked back.
Fantastically Moisturising
It smells quite strongly of saddle wood, but thats the only issue. It absorbs soo well into your skin, and leaves it immediately brighter!!
I am very happy with it, as it has no harsh ingredients and does a great job!My husband loves it too
I bought this as my skin has gone through a massive dehydration after menopause.
I love this cream and the way it gives my skin a big drink, but even more surprising is that my husband loves it and uses it every day. I have very dry skin, he has combination oily skin (lucky man) and it works beautifully on both of us. He's now put the jar in his bathroom so I'll have to buy another one for myself.Life saver
Okay words cannot even describe how awesome this product is, after having tried all the products for the most hydrating cream my quest ended with this! No more irritating creams that end badly with an allergic reaction this is god sent. I desperately sought this after all the damage to my already dry skin via make up abuse and the general wear and tear whilst travelling abroad on those long hauling flights....Camellia Nut Hydrating Cream you saved my life, after the first application I woke up touching my face was like silk, not the usual roughness equivalent to that of sandpaper. Excellent product recommend it for everyone, absorbs fast as well.Perfect moisturizer, even while hvaing chemo !!
I used this product while having chemo, it saved my skin.
Normally with chemo smells make you feel ill but the fragrance of this moisturizer was fine for me. This product protected and relieved my face, chemotherapy is horrendously drying to the skin.My favourite moisteriser
This is a beautiful cream that I use daily. Lasts for months as you only need to use a small amount. Makes my skin feel so soft, and I don't find it too heavy or oily. I can highly recommend!I like this product
It is gentle, easily absorbed, produces no adverse reactions, and lasts for monthsI always buy this product now
Since I first discovered Aesop products, I have tried to use nothing else. Soft, easily absorbed, no adverese reactions and lasts for monthsVery good choice
Bought this for my daughter in law and she was delighted. She uses your products all the time.Very happy
Fantastic rich moisturizer that last for around 3 monthsLovely
Always wanted to try the brand as I feel it is excellant value for money and the ingredients are divine. Smells great, works well, easy to use and you don't need heaps to cover and importantly it works under make up. I will buy again. I am often using Lancome, Dior and Clarins and I think this one rates well amongst those.- Just lovely going onto the skin, absorbs really well & best of all it actually moisturises! Recommend for winter/drier months.
- This product is great!!! Wont make your skin oily - I have combination skin and it is great for it! Smells delicious and long wearing - very hydrating. Lasts for over 3 months if used sparingly
- I bought this for my dad as he was getting really dry skin from Chemotherapy and Radiotherapy and he loves it - he even puts it on his ears!?
