This Week's Answer
Belief's The True Cream—Aqua Bomb is an ultra-lightweight, gel-cream that instantly cools and refreshes skin while providing hydration. This water-based moisturizer "floods" the skin with hydration and minimizes the appearance of pores for soft, smooth, supple skin. Ideal for normal, combination and oily skin types.
This formula contains a blend of apothecary herbs including antioxidant-rich lady's mantle, which helps neutralize skin-damaging free radicals; improves skin elasticity; and minimizes the appearance of pores. The cream is formulated to burst when applied.
