Reviews For Neocutis Journee Firm Riche Extra Moisturizing Revitalizing & Refining Day Cream SPF 30
Not a fan!
I have been using Neocutis products for years. This product is the worst of them all. Too thick, too dark and leave my face shiny. I wish I had read the reviews better. I will not order this again.

Super disappointed in revised product
I should have read the reviews more closely. This formula has definitely changed for the worse. I too was expected the light cream. This new formula is more like a BB. It is thick and so is the tint. It's so thick that even washing my hands after applying didn't remove the greasy feel. This product is so thick and greasy I needed to blot the product off to remove the shine from my face. May be great if you're new to the product, but not so much if you were just looking for a tinted moisturizer like the old formula.

Very good product
I was a big fan of Neocutis Micro day with spf. When they dicontinued it and suggested Journee, I tried it but it was so thick I felt like I was pulling on my skin in an unhealty way to apply it! Then the Journee Firm Riche was suggested, I have been using it, it is a bit easier to apply than the previous Journee, but still not as light in application as the Micro Day. It is a multipurpose product , which I do love, spf, moisture etc. I find if I apply it right after hyaluronic acid it seem to spread easier (probably because my skin is moist from the Hya.

Drastic Change in Product
I have happily used Journee day cream SPF 30 for many years. This last time I ordered, the Riche normal version was no longer available so I tried this Firm Riche and also the Firm. What a drastic change for the worse! I absolutely detest the Firm and the Firm Riche isn’t that much better. The old original version was a pleasant thin light cream. The new versions are thick (the Firm incredibly thick) and feel really heavy and sticky on the face. I wore the Firm Riche to an afternoon wedding and expected the feel to improve but it never did. Even at the end of the day it was still sticky and wiped off onto my napkin and everything else. I couldn’t touch my face without it getting on my hands - and therefore my dress, etc. I really wish the old version were available again. It was a very good product, but these two are not.

Wasn't sure but now I like it!!
I have been a Journee user for well over a decade. I wasn't at all excited about the new formulation in the beginning, but really love that they are not using chemical sunscreens any longer. Turns out that after giving new product a chance, I really do like it very much. My skin seems to continue it's glow that I always had with the "old" Journee.

Ruined an Excellent Product
Unfortunately, my opinion of this product is the same as most reviewers who have tried the new formula of the Neocutis Journee Day Cream (regular or extra moisturizing version). It was a huge disappointment. I have used Neocutis Journee Day cream for years. This formulation is not at all like the old version. The texture is different - it has a very sticky or tacky feel that stays with you throughout the day. The color is a problem because it does not blend into the different skin tones the way the old version did. This has a very dark, orange tint to it. I think that there are very few skin tones that this will work on given that the color does not blend in. It has been mentioned that it can work if you blend it in with your other moisturizers. I didn't find this to be the case, but for some it might. Having to blend it in with other creams to get the texture and color right, does not sound like Neocutis has made an improvement to this cream. Before, it was a great day cream with SPF on its own.

Not for me…:(
For years I’ve used & loved Neocutis products. I was expecting Journee Firm Riche Extra Moisturizing SPF 30 to be extra wonderful for my dry skin. It was thicker, making it harder to spread & absorb. Plus the color is slightly darker than the regular Journee Riche. Sadly this is a product I was disappointed in & will be returning. But as in all things, it may be just right for someone else.

Not Sure Yet
The consistency of this face cream is thick & chalky feeling on the skin, not smooth like Micro Day Richie. However, it seems after makeup is applied I did have a nice glow. Unsure of my feelings on this one. I will try it a few more times. I have only used it for a few days so far.

New Formula
This new formula is so different from the old one. It is much darker and goes on very thick. At first I hated it!! However, I discovered that if I mix it with the biocream it works marvelously. I do not have to use any foundation with this because it works like a foundation and with the added biocream is very moisterizing.

What a bummer!!
Such a bummer that they reformulated this product that was a splurge but fav of mine for over 10 years. New formula goes on thick and sticky like zinc oxide and seems to sit on my skin rather than being absorbed in. Not a fan - has anyone had good luck finding a new anti-aging sunscreen product to replace this one?

Only giving 1 star as no space for minus rating
I have been using this product for many years and loved it. The last time I ordered it I was not happy but it was too late to return by the time I finished what I had and started a new one. Since this is reformulated, I thought I would try it and could not be less pleased. It is so thick and goes on like the ickiest foundation. It just kind of sits on the skin and the color will come off on anything that touches your face. I went to wipe my nose and the tissue turned a yellowish/brown after using the product a couple hours earlier. I cannot say how disappointed I am as I have used and loved all of Neocutis products for years. I am returning this and will have to find another brand of day cream with SPF.
