"This one is from Round Lab, a lighter gel type moisturizer. It's never sticky and has almost no scent, so it works for anyone, even for men, no problem. The Round Lab moisturizer is so famous no further explanation is needed. It absorbs into the skin quickly. It does have capsules in it, so be aware when applying it."

"The Round Lab Birch Juice Moisturizing Cream, I recommend this for acne prone skin as it contains very mild ingredients. There are capsules in it but they spread well, you have to apply them until they melt, and it's an allergen free product. Whenever I test a new retinol and my skin breaks out, I always reach for this cream because I know it's really safe. It moisturizes me well, and it's a tube type so it's hygienic. I like this one."

"My favorite hands down is the Birch Juice just because it applies so transparently clear on my skin and it feels really nice and works well."

"It's in this light, fluffy, watery texture that at first, you're like, I don't think this is going to be enough. But then that's where those capsules come in. And you can feel that kind of lock in kind of film. [...] If you have facial hair and you're using this, give this a rub in the palm of your hands first, break down those capsules, then rub on your skin. And you will love this."

What the evidence says.

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

Vitamin C

Topical vitamin C is an antioxidant with reasonable evidence for dullness and uneven tone. It breaks down in light and air, so how a product is formulated and packaged matters as much as the percentage on the front.

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.
