Early verdict · Few reviews so far

What they liked

  • Affordable price point under $30
  • Heavier weight formula

What they flagged

  • May feel too rich for some skin types

What the gurus are saying

This heavier-weight moisturizer earns praise for its niacinamide and peptide lipid complex, which experts say help with firmness. The price under $30 makes it a popular restock choice, though it may not work for everyone, some find it simply doesn't deliver for their skin despite its solid ingredient lineup.

"The It Cosmetics Confidence in a Cream Moisturizer is a little bit of a heavier weight moisturizer with some peptide ingredients. It's a product I know a lot of people restock in the sale because it's under $30, but all that said, it's not a personal favorite for me, everyone is different and it just didn't stick for me personally."

"IT Cosmetics has their Confidence in a Cream Anti-Aging Hydrating Moisturizer that has four percent niacinamide in that as well as squalane and a peptide lipid complex to help with a little bit of firmness and tightness."

What the evidence says.

Independent of what the gurus think, this is what the published research supports about the main active ingredients here.

Niacinamide

Niacinamide has evidence behind it for redness, uneven tone and supporting the skin barrier, and it is usually well tolerated even by skin that reacts to most things.

Ceramides

Ceramides are part of the skin's own barrier, and moisturisers built around them have evidence for holding water in and settling the tightness and flaking that come with a damaged barrier.

Humectants and emollients

Ingredients like these draw water into the surface layers and slow how fast it leaves. The evidence is for comfort, softness and hydration rather than for changing the structure of the skin.
