Hello 
I have a sample of Nourish so again, I don't have the list of ingredients but I do believe it is listed on EDS.
As for the packaging, I can only assume that it is the same as KIAJ.
All I can say that this is another nice moisturizer but very light. The texture is more like a lotion to me. I am so used to Cellcosmet Ultra Vital and do feel that with KS Nourish, you need to apply more of the cream then you would of Cellcosmet Ultra Vital.
Nourish claims that it will brighten your skin. I'm am not sure in what way they meant that because, as you already know, I am a huge fan of Vivier Vitamin C and found that to clear up my skin tone, and I think it help my skin feel a lot firmer. Perhaps, it helped with any fine lines also.
When you fist applied Nourish, my skin did look nice and dewy. It soaked up really nice on my skin and that it looked very nice on me. I should add that I have combination skin, prone to cystic acne and blackheads.
Nourish also claims that it has Vitamin A in a very stable form, vitamin C & E, Green Tea, and Matrixyl 300-which is for wrinkles.
I know that Vitamin A is very good for your skin but you have to wear sunblock with it. This can increase your sensitivity to sunlight. So, I am not clear what the strength is with Vitamin A. Also, what is the strength of Vitamin C and how stable is it in Nourish?
 I am extremely happy with this moisturizer. Personally, I find it to be a very good, light texture moisturizer that does leave a bit of a dewy look on your skin.  I love this moisturizer so much that I also feel torn between Nourish and Cellcosmet moisturizer.
The scent is very light, and I think it is safe for me to say that because at this time of the year, I am very sensitive due to allergy season. It smells a bit fruity but also calming.
 I like Nourish better then Goat Milk only because it does not have Witch Hazel and I forgot to add that both have the same texture. I love Nourish so much, that I went ahead and ordered a full size jar!
BTW, my father has been going into my washroom and been using up my sample of Nourish. I think he likes it because strangely enough, I don't have any more left of my Nourish sample.  |

That's kinda cute!
Anyway, I bought a bottle of this and have been using it for a few days. So far I really like it too ... I can only judge it so far on how it goes on, because I haven't used it long enough to judge any other effects. I agree with you in that it does seem to sink in nicely and seems nice and light. The container is the same as KIAJ. I LOVE the KS containers! They're so well designed and I love that each product has a little graphic on top of it that shows what the product is.
I want to do a review on the things I bought, but I'll give them all more time. I had also bought the sunscreen which seems nice BUT yesterday ( my first day wearing it ), I did find my face was alot more shiny than it had been before. I think maybe tomorrow I will try layering thinner layers because my face FEELS like it has thicker product on it. (edited to add: another thing I've noticed about the sunscreen is that my face MIGHT feel alittle prickly when wearing it, so I wonder if my skin isn't happy with one of the ingredients. I had that happen with another sunscreen before and got a bit rashy. With this one I'm not rashy, but it does feel a tiny bit prickly.)
One thing I have found in only a few short days is my skin feels alot more hydrated. I LOVE the IS Clinical stuff I was using because it helped (most times) with breakouts and minimizing any fine lines, BUT I think it dried out my skin a little bit. However, using the KS line ... so far my skin is looking much more hydrated. I just hope I don't suffer breakouts, etc. from it ... time will tell! And I'm curious how well it will work for anti-aging. I'll be able to tell if any of the fine lines start to come back.  |

Moonstar, please share your long term review of Nourish. Even with Nourish, sometimes I think it may be a bit shiny but that is only when I applied it after Vivier Vitamin C.
Do you know the strength of the Vitamin A in Nourish?
I am really looking forward to reading any reviews on KS Vitamin Complex and I am very interested in knowing the strength of the Vitamin C. It has to be stable before I even consider purchasing a full size and abandoning Vivier. |

I'll definitely write a review on the products in a few weeks. I have the Vitamin Complex as well, but once again, haven't used it long enough to compare. I was actually using the Viver 20% as well. I don't know the strength of the Vitamin C (nor the Vitamin A in Nourish). I do know the KS Vitamin C serum smell very strongly of Vitamin C, but that doesn't really tell anything! It's not over powering though and disappears once it sinks in the skin. It does sink in nicely too and doesn't leave me shiny.
I think I definitely am putting too much product on in the morning ...something is making my face feel like it has too much product on it. I don't think it's the Vitamin Complex, so it's maybe that I'm putting too much Nourish on (they do say a thin layer and I think I am putting maybe more than that on ... I'll cut back ... no sense to waste it!), but I think the more likely culprit is the sunscreen (I'll still keep using it though for now). |

I can't wait to read your review. I hope others will share their first initial thought of Nourish. |

I have a sample-sized tube of this, and have decided that this shall become my new daily moisturizer. it!
The the word "nourish" might indicate "heavier" or "greasy", this is simply not the case. Upon application, the product sinks right in, and there is not a trace of greasiness on my face ... even in the summer heat, and with combo. skin. |

I love this moisturizer! Bought the full jar last summer. A little goes a long way for me (I only pump halfway because too much comes out in 1 pump), even in the winter (since I also use vit c/antioxidants and a whitening serum underneath). The only thing I didn't like about it is the Vit A in it...I don't know the percentage, it doesn't say but the SA on the phone assured me it was not a lot and that I should not be worried since I use a sunscreen daily. It's very moisturizing, makes my skin look dewy but too much of it and my face actually gets oily!
My skin is normal to dry so to get it oily was just awesome! No break outs either. I wouldn't repurchase, just cuz of the the vit A and I'm paranoid about sun exposure as it is. But that's the only reason I wouldn't buy it again cuz it performs on all other levels! |
