Great esp after a day in the sun

Quick Take: lightweight, absorbs quickly, intensive
I regret not taking this on vacation with me. i got a little too much sun and my face got mildly burned. i couldn't wait to get home and put some on. it instantly cooled my face and felt so great that I put it all over my bf's sunburnt back. it does take the redness off.

Gave It A Good Run and it Failed
-10.19.12
Quick Take: lightweight, absorbs quickly, not good for moderate acne prone skin, not good for pores
I'm 53 with moderate acne prone oily/combination skin with mild rosacea. I bought this product twice and used the full tube both times in combination with Korres Yoghurt Moisturizer and Clarisonic Sensitive Skin Cleanser. Here are the results:
1) this did have some effect on the rosacea, but not as much as I would have liked.
2) I applied it as directed on the areas where the redness appears and after a while, I found I had developed blackheads.
3) I don't know if it is this product or another Korres yoghurt product, but one of the two caused addtional breakouts. I suspect it was the other one.
4) Not worth the price.

So smooth!
-10.01.12
Quick Take: lightweight, absorbs quickly
This soothing gel goes on silky smooth and gives an amazing skin cooling feel immediately after application. I've had sporadic acne flare ups recently during the fall weather change here, and it helps to take away redness and just feels absolutely great. This gel is great as a daily moisturizer and it has inspired me to purchase more Korres products!

Quick Take: lightweight
I got this in Hawaii when I accidently charred my face. I went to Sephora and the sales lady recommeded it. I feel in love with it. It really did help cool my face and it made me it feel better. It smells fresh and clean, it is not greasy at all. My husband tried and out and loved it too.

Not sure about this one
-09.17.12
Quick Take: lightweight, absorbs quickly
I purchased this product because my skin is very sensitive to sun, wind, etc. and gets very red as a result.
While this felt nice on my skin, I didn't notice any real soothing effects and I returned.

Wanted to love it
-08.10.12
Quick Take: unpleasant
Usually love Korres. Have sensitive skin and need something really soothing from time to time. The scent alone was awful... had to wash it off immediately. If you are scent sensitive this is not for you, the memory is enough to bring on a migraine

Beyond Amazing!
-06.22.12
Quick Take: lightweight, absorbs quickly
I have extremely oily skin and rosacea so finding products that actually make a difference on my skin are a rarity but this definitely does the trick. It's super lightweight and now during the summer I use this as my main moisturizer. In winter this will most likely need to be layered under a heavier one, but since buying this a few weeks ago my skin has calmed down in terms of redness. I mean I still have redness, it's no miracle cure, but for an over the counter product it definitely has helped reduce it a little. I'm very pleased.

Quick Take: lightweight, absorbs quickly
This product is the BEST moisturizer I have ever experienced! I have combination skin and rosacia (or however u spell it) and I put this on and it makes everything tone down and even. Also, another thing thats amazing is that you can wear this underneath ur make-up or before you go to bed. Im in love with this product. Korres is the best!

This is PHENOMENAL
-04.16.12
Quick Take: lightweight, absorbs quickly, intensive, helps reduce redness, soothing, cooling
So I've had a sample of this for ages but have never wanted to use it because I had read it was best for burns. I finally got to put this to the test after I got burned from waxing. I was trying moisturizers and everything to cool myself down when I remembered I had this. I put it on (maybe a quarter size) after I showered and before I went to sleep. So I woke up in the morning and the redness had been reduced SO MUCH. I was amazed that this was able to help a burn from waxing - not just the sun.
After seeing what it can do, I would definitely recommend this product to anyone who has sensitive skin and burns easily. This product has been a life saver and I intend on buying the full-size product for summer.

Soothing!
-03.13.12
Quick Take: lightweight, absorbs quickly, soothing, calming
I got a sample of this last week, and absolutely loved it! I have rosacea on my cheeks and an oily t-zone with several acne scars, after my usual night skincare routine I applied this, and felt this cool tingling sensation. The next morning, I woke up and the redness on my cheeks were significantly toned down, and the redness around the scars were practically non-existant. The smell is fresh, and the product is very lightweight and was absorbed by my skin within seconds. Definitely a product to purchase!

Korres Yoghurt Instant Soothing Gel
-12.09.11
Quick Take: lightweight, absorbs quickly
I do like this product - however, it is not as calming on my roseacea as I would have liked. But that's probably more because I've had roseacea for 20+ years than because of the product. I will continue to use it for a few more months and see what happens. Overall though, I do like the product.

Amazing!
-11.11.11
Quick Take: intensive, lightweight, absorbs quickly, great for senstive/rosecea skin
I bought this two days ago and I am AMAZED at how well it works. I have mild rosceca (just redness no bumps) on my cheeks and nose. I put this just on those areas and it instantly colded, and toned the color down! I applied it twice, and this morning my face looked less red when I woke up. It also helped this morning (had an interview) where my cheeks would normally be blazing red, they weren't! Worth every penny, and will definetly be rebuying and trying more from this line! I also used the matching yogurt moisturizer once, so I feel this product carried more weight in the results. And this is only in two days. I also love the fact it's a natural line. I belive in probiotics, and my face proves this works!

I have extra-sensitive skin - lots of allergies - that flares up daily. This product instantly calms the flare-ups. Recommend refrigerating product for extra calming.

Helps those sun burns
-07.22.11
Quick Take: lightweight, absorbs quickly, cooling
This stuff is great. I got it as a sample and then i used it on that extremely dry flakey skin when your sun burns start to flake and this stuff works great on it. It also has a slight cooling feeling as well. I'm not crazy about the smell and it does have a little stickiness to it but its totally worth it. Must give this a shot!
