Amazing ingredients, I love the moisturiser! You only need a little bit and it hydrates even dry skin despite being a gel cream. The only feedback I have is maybe to reduce or take out the silicone in it, as it does form a film on the face which can feel sticky even after the night and can pill when applying morning skincare over it (I prefer not to cleanse in the morning). But amazing product!
Hi! Thank you so much for your kind review and your feedback on the silicone in the formula. I am tweaking the polymer and occlusive system for our next batch and the cyclopentasiloxane and existing polymer we use will be removed and replaced with a more lightweight silky combo that's more breathable and less sticky especially when it's humid out <3 Thanks again for choosing to shop with us and for your feedback.

I couldn’t be more happier to have come across this brand! Never in my life have I seen a brand that actually understands reactive, everything prone skin! The Ingredient list in sapa is perfection.
I found it to be so soothing and gentle on my sensitive skin. My skin doesn’t itch and it feels hydrating. I do need to pair it with their vitamin c serum to actually make it moisturizing enough for my dry skin.
I’m in love with this brand!!!!
Wow, this is an AMAZING product. I have extremely sensitive skin with rosacea, acne, periodic perioral dermatitis, and random fungal acne breakouts from time to time. My skin is reactive and I have to be super careful with what products I use. I wasn’t sure what to expect with this moisturizer, but the reviews had me hopeful. This is definitely my new holy grail- this moisturizer has completely calmed and helped to clear up my skin. I went from a red tomato with acne and a random fungal acne breakout to having happy, clear skin. I’m not sure what kind of magic this is but I’m so happy to have found this brand and this moisturizer. Please don’t ever reformulate!!!
I’m also excited to give the Tidy Pores a try!
I think I finally found a moisturizer that works for me! I have rosacea and extremely sensitive and reactive skin. Almost every moisturizer irritates my skin, clogs my pores, or causes fungal acne. After two weeks with this, my skin is way less irritated, smooth, and redness is almost gone! This is different from any other moisturizer I’ve used as it’s not creamy and I use a lot less (as directed by Authentic Ego), but it works! So happy with this product and I hope they never change it! Going to try the Tidy Pores next!
Thank you for creating this moisturizer. Its formula is light on the skin but leaves it nourished and sparkling all day long. GAME CHANGER !!!
Struggle with fungal acne and rosacea.
Love how this moisturizer is fungal acne safe and also non-irritating. One of the few moisturizers that does not sting at all when dealing with a rosacea flare. Great for sensitive skin- Phenomenal ingredient list as well!
This version definitely works much better with my skin! When my skin is extra dry from retinol or exfoliation, this helps to calm my skin and bring it back to normal quickly!
Esthetician here! 3 weeks ago my skin was angry, inflamed, dry, rough, dehydrated, congested, and bumpy - today it is noticeably smoother, congestion is gone, redness is soothed, and my skin is happy and I didn't break out once. I have seriously never used a product as amazing as this one. It is so hydrating, healing, and soothing. By far my favorite product I’ve ever used and will recommend to my clients.
As a perimenopausal woman, I’ve been struggling with hormonal acne, along with thin, sensitive skin caused by decreased estrogen and collagen levels. I’ve tried countless popular vitamin C serums, but most of them broke me out.
Authentic Ego is different. This is the only vitamin C serum that doesn’t irritate my skin—and I truly love the healthy glow it gives me. The Super Sensa moisturizer is the perfect lightweight layer to use in the morning over the serum, and at night on top of vitamin A. It feels soothing, never greasy, and keeps my skin balanced.
