Cannot put makeup over it because the makeup mixes with the paste.So this was a HUGE waste of $30.It is literally unusuable.I am furious at the company for this dreadful change.This stuff is great for me. I had acne, blotches, dark spots and fine lines. Since I already use the entire Avalon Lavender line I decided to use this one for during the day. My skin is truly glowing and rejuvenated now. No more break outs and it is easy to use under my foundation. I just wish the SPF was a bit higher like 25 or something. But I truly believe that Lavender has healing properties for my sensitive skin and there are so many other great ingredients in there. The smell is a bit medicinal but personally I love the smell of Lavender; it is not supposed to be perfumy and on top of it all I feel great supporting an eco-friendly company. (no advertising campaign with 12 year old models pretending to be 30:)
I have been using Avalon Organics now for a few years and this moisturizer is light and feels great under my mineral make-up. I sometimes even use it at night when I am not near my eye cream. It has done well in all other climates too where I wash my face with different types of water (Sometimes same products on my face do differently during my travels). The lavender scene SOMETIMES irritates my skin but I think I am rather used to it I may switch over at some point after reading Paula's book on "Don't go to the Cosmetics Counter without me" she did not even review the Avalon Organics line to my surprise but I do think the scents lately are just a bit strong and the SPF is rather low so even though it has those issues, I give it a 4 out of 5 because it is extremely reasonable in price and seems to have done really well on my skin over the last few years. Always explore with facial products. Every face is unique!
