Professor Augustinus Bader Read About Professor BaderI’ve been using The Rich Cream at night and I can feel and see a difference in my skin. My skin tone has evened out and my make up goes on so much smoother than before. My fine lines are a lot less noticeable.
Love AB! The Rich Cream hooked me 6 months ago. Just started using the toner and it’s perfection. Ordering the body balm next.
I get a glow like no other. Especially when used with the oil. I find using both Rich Cream and oil combined, it gives me the most nourishment especially for my dry ageing skin.
My skin texture has improved since I started using the cream/rich cream two years ago. My skin is plump and stays moisturized throughout the day and I no longer get dry spots by my nose and chin.
I did a great deal of research before purchasing because I have very sensitive skin. I wanted to make sure I was making an investment in a quality product the would improve my skin. The Rich Cream is amazing! I can already see and feel the benefits in a short period of time.
Simply the best cream ever, the only one that actually does what it says and even more
I love the product and the results. I went from using four different products and now just use The Rich Cream. So simple and so effective.
I have sensitive skin with frequent eczema flare ups. The Rich Cream is very soothing and helps minimize the redness and cracking. It’s also virtually the only cream I can use in my face during flare ups. In addition, my skin looks amazing when it’s not affected by a flare up and I receive many compliments. I’m happy to share information on my skin care with anyone who asks.
I have been using your products for close to two years. My skin continually improves and I have comments on how lovely it is. It's all due to your incredible formulations. I won't stop using them. Thank you.
