Philosophy Hope in Jar Moisturizer

I was in desperate need of a good moisturizer when I purchased this pricey product at Sephora. While this product works just great and will certainly take care of your dry skin it is expensive and the smell is not great. Overall the product does work perfectly however I think there are cheaper solutions out there. 38$
