Perfect hydration for nighttime and winter care
Having tried both Augustinus Bader The Rich Cream and The Cream, I can see how they cater to slightly different needs, making it easy to choose depending on your skin type and the season. The Rich Cream is exactly what you’d expect from the name: deeply hydrating, nourishing, and perfect for dry or stressed skin. It’s especially effective as a nighttime moisturizer or during colder months when your skin needs extra support. Despite its richness, it doesn’t feel overly heavy or greasy—it’s rich in the best way, leaving your skin soft, plump, and radiant. On the other hand, The Cream is much lighter in texture and better suited for daytime or warmer climates. It absorbs quickly, making it ideal for normal to combination skin or anyone who prefers a more lightweight, breathable moisturizer. While it still delivers hydration and skin-repair benefits, it feels less intensive compared to The Rich Cream. Both products deliver excellent results, but I found myself reaching for The Rich Cream during the winter or as part of my nighttime routine, while The Cream was my go-to for daytime or summer use. If you’re unsure which one to choose, think about your skin type and when you plan to use it—they both bring that signature Augustinus Bader glow, just in slightly different ways!

Augustinus Bader Rich Cream
I can't say enough good things about Augustinus Bader’s Rich Cream—I've already finished my first bottle! The luxurious texture strikes the perfect balance; it’s not too heavy yet provides ample hydration, making it feel like the "Goldilocks" of skincare creams. I adore how it melts into my skin, leaving it perfectly moisturized without any greasy residue. Thank you LovelySkin for the promotions so I can indulge without breaking the bank.

The Rich Cream
I have used the light cream and wanted to try the rich. I can honestly say I prefer the light because the rich cream is too heavy for daytime use. This my opinion, but everyone may not agree.

OK
This cream absorbs very quickly and feels nice under makeup. This cream is not moisturizing enough for me and I feel like it’s drying out my skin. At the high price point I will not repurchase.

I really really love this product! My esthetician had recommended this, so I decided to try it. I used this both in the evening and morning, it leaves my skin well hydrated and smooth. My sunscreen and make up go on smooth, and last throughout the day. I also like the packaging, great for travel. Price point is high, but excellent product. Will purchase again.

This cream is as the name describes, so rich! I love its healing and moisturizing properties. I put it on following dermabrasion and I can feel it re-repairing my skin! It’s amazing. 10/10 recommended.

Great product
This cream goes on very easily and I absolutely think makes my skin look firmer and more healthy. I have purchased several times and enjoy it a lot. It is expensive but works.

The BEST!
This is my all-time favorite moisturizer! I use it every morning and feel as if I am giving my skin a present!! My aging skin even has a glow and it’s a pleasure to apply with its richness, though it’s not at all oily. Additionally, I adore the packaging/bottle!

Definitely a Holy Grail Moisturizer
A rich moisturizer that easily and quickly absorbs into the skin with a pure clean scent. Super luxurious and provides long lasting moisture. After just a few weeks my skin texture has improved and slight hyperpigmentation areas are noticeably lighter. No adverse reactions to any extent and just an absolutely beautiful product. Is it truly worth $300? That is the difficult question ...

The biggest question that comes up with Augustinus Bader all the time is "is it worth it?" That's a subjective question, and one that's impossible to answer. All I know is that I've now gone through 5 bottles of AB's various creams and I'm a believer. My skin loves this stuff. I'm on the oilier side and I use The Rich Cream at night only during the winter and it's a game changer.

This cream is the GOAT. I was hesitant to purchase due to the price tag but the results are so incredible. Will keep this in my ritual for as long as it is available.

AB Rich cream
Use as a night cream for my dry skin. Love the texture and no fragrance but not sure it’s that moisturizing for the hype and price

Love this moisturizer
During the winter, I alternate between this product and The Cream during the day, depending on how dry my skin gets. During the summer, I only use this at night on top of my serum. It is definitely emollient, but not greasy, which I appreciate.

Better overall moisturizer
I started using this product about a year ago. It’s proving to bea beneficial investment. My skin is healthier and has shown an improvement in overall texture and appearance. I would recommend this, especially for mature skin.

Fantastic hydrating moisturizer
I use this cream in the winter when my skin is dryer due to the elements. It's not greasy, absorbs quickly and leaves my skin well hydrated. My skin looks and feels better when using it. Fine lines are softened.
