KEY INGREDIENTS:
Black diamond truffle (helps firm skin); South Sea pearls and 24-karat gold (add radiance); vitamin C (brightens); ganoderma lucidum mushroom extract (anti-inflammatory); cupuaçu butter and glycerin (moisturize)
HOW IT LOOKS/FEELS/SMELLS:
One word: Fancy-pants. It's a thick, white floral-scented cream in a gold jar that includes a gold wand for scooping up the ideal amount of product—and making the whole application process feel that much more luxurious.
WHY WE LIKE IT:
Black truffles! Pearls! Gold! This supercream is loaded with some very indulgent-sounding ingredients. But that's not why we like it. The reason we've added this cream to our regular rotation is because it contains a plethora of highly effective botanicals (like the not-so-sexy sounding green-algae extract) and moisturizers (cupuaçu butter, glycerin) that ease wrinkles and unevenness—even if their names don't conjure up fantasies of yachting in the Mediterranean. And of course, it doesn't hurt that the weighty gold jar looks gorgeous on our vanity.
