I bought some from Amazon and it went on smoothly but was very dry once it dried. Does it work with a moisturizer under it? If so, what kind?

the product doesn't need moisturizer under it if it is the "real" product. You may have gotten a knock -off like I did! Only buy from a reputable store, you will notice the huge difference.

I'm not sure what you mean by sticky. I put it on my freshly cleansed face, after I've used toner, serum and moisturing cream. I need to keep the moisture in my skin. It goes on smoothly and looks great. My face feels moist and not tacky, but hey, that's just me. I'd be really unhappy if it left me feeling dry. I'm extremely pleased with this and it is a great base for my makeup, which is relatively simple. Blush and contour powder goes on smoothly over it, as does eye makeup.

I did not put a moisturizer before. Only after when the tan is dry. Really liked the tan. Too bad the bottle hives you only about 3 full body applications.

I have, and it worked just fine. The application has to be light or it can look pasty. I use it for everything, even eye cream when my skin feels dry. I can't say enough about it. Really one of my favorite products on the market.

No, this does not work as a moisturizer. This is similar to a chemical peel. Therefore it takes off the outer layer of dead skin making it easier for your usual moisturizer to absorb and making your skin more smooth. If you are looking for a moisturizer this is not the product to buy.

I have dry skin and have no problem with the product. What I like about it is it goes on so very lightly; it doesn't feel heavy at all. My thought would be if it goes on lightly it shouldn't shine ( not on me) but you need to be the final answer to the purchase. It's very nice I think you will be pleased.

I have the moist lotion--I am not sure about the smooth you are referring to. I highly recommend the moist though. You must be prepared, however, to use it differently than the usual lotions sold in the States. It is very thin, so you put it on your face and let it absorb. This means that you really cannot put any other products on your face until it is absorbed. I love it, however, because my facial skin has never been so moisturized.

I would not recommend using it as a moisturizer. I use this as my my hair-gel because it dries up but is sticky enough to style my hair the way I want. Due to its dry/sticky nature, it will not be a good moisturizer at all but it makes for an AMAZING all natural (no chemicals) hair-gel :)

I am not aware of a moisturizer. The manufacturer is Viva La Vida Natural Skin Care. I do not see that Amazon sells a moisturizer. I team it with Philosophy Nuture, and they work well together.

I have never used it when my skin was dry. I only have used it when needing to exfoliate my skin when experiencing breakouts or overly oily.

They recommend it but I did not use a moisturizer and had amazing results. I'm sure if a moisturizer is used the results will be even greater!

I've bought this product and found it drying. It came with no directions, unlike others, which warn that skin must be water-moistened first, before applying, and that there is no such thing as 100% h.a. in such products. http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B005REYEXS/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o03_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 Who knows who's telling the truth.

Hi there. It does not seem to have to "dry" for me. What I do is use a cotton pad with the aloe vera and cleanse my face. Then I take fingertip amounts of Menerva's Kiss. I use it sparingly, so it doesn't feel like it needs to dry. Sometimes throughout the day, I feel like I need another treatment. I love this stuff!!

it says to use once a day so I use at night and don't use a moisturizer on top. in the morning I use a different cream with a moisturizer. it works well under make up too. I have only used it for a short time but my skin does feel tighter. good luck dorothy

Because of all the moisturizers I've tried, this keeps my skin moisturized for 24 hrs. For reference, I have very dry skin that starts to hurt whenever the humidity drops. I live in a very humid environment.

I would. I use a moisturizer that is kinda thick but great, so I thin it a bit with this product and it works really well. Love this and am about ready to order again.

Hi, it is not a moisturizer nor does it even act close to one. This is very dry and makes your face feel drier I guess because of the mate finish. Thus non-greasy.
