"The texture is this sort of gel cream. Like it's lightweight, but it's still super cushiony. It gives a hydrated, bounciness to the skin with a slightly dewy finish. Now, what's really interesting is that this product still works for me while the others do not. I guess it just goes to show that different formulas can behave differently, but to me, this is worth every single penny, coming in at about $70."

"I've recently started using the Educated Mess Sake Bomb Targeted Peptide Hydra Burst Moisturizer and I am absolutely hooked. This is a lightweight gel cream moisturizer that is deceptively powerful. It's called the Sake Bomb because it contains sake ferment and this is great for softening and for brightening the skin. And this is bursting with hydrating ingredients and peptides. The texture is so lovely. It's not super heavy, which makes it fine for the hot weather or even those with oily skin. It sinks in quickly, but it just leaves my skin so plump and supple. It's deep hydration without greasiness or heaviness, which is perfect for warmer nights when I just don't want to put a heavy cream on my face."

"Another moisturizer that I'm absolutely loving and I'm a bit surprised by is the Educated Mess Sake Bomb. This texture looks creamy, but watch the way it melts into the skin. Absolutely beautiful lightweight moisturizer. It's one of those daily moisturizers that you can use year round depending on your skin's need. If you have normal to slightly dry skin, you can use this in the fall. I would say in the summer, those of you with oily skin probably are going to find this a bit heavy. And in the winter, those folks with oily skin are probably going to really enjoy this. It just sinks right into the skin. I just love this squalane based formula because that is what my skin needs in the fall. It's a little creamier than both the prequel and the educated mess. Just a lovely moisturizer to have in your skincare wardrobe that you can use year round."

"It starts off like a cream, like a gel cream, right, and then you start putting it on your skin and it turns into like this thick water that just feels so quenching on the skin but doesn't sink in and disappear. You are left looking glowy and dewy, feeling super well hydrated. It's got Aloe Leaf in it as well which I love for soothing and hydration. I love this and it's a moisturizer I can rely on to keep me looking hydrated but not greasy and oily throughout the whole day."
