What the gurus are saying

Oily or dry? This oil-free gel cream gets recommended to both. Some find the lovely texture, amino acids and peptides friendly for oily and acne-prone skin, while others call it thick enough for dry, sensitive skin in winter. Another take finds it too light once the cold hits, so it suits spring, summer and fall best. The pink jar is suggested if your skin runs very oily.

"I think I remember trying this Summer Fridays moisturizer before and liking it. One thing about gel creams that can be a little frustrating for me sometimes is that I cannot use these in the colder weather. My skin will be dry, especially with how dry and cold it gets here in New York in the winter, so this is definitely a warmer weather kind of thing."

"This one, even though it's lighter weight in consistency, strangely leaves me feeling moisturized, so that's usually the opposite of what happens, but this works better for me. It also has a ton of amazing ingredients like hyaluronic acid, amino acids, vitamin C, saccharide isomerate, a plant extract that is apparently a great source of an antioxidant, ceramide NP, vitamin E, peptides, plant-based extracts."

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.

Source: DermNet

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.
