Merlot GRAPE SEED MOISTURIZER

Merlot GAPE SEED MOISTURIZER. I finally decided to try it after all the talk about it. Im a real bargain shopper most of the time, so at $14.99 (Walgreens) i wanted to try it, but didnt wanna waste 15 dollars to find out it was crap. I swear like every day im in walgreens buying something or another. Everytime i pass it, and i finally decided to try it, when i saw that it came with a little travel size one.

Travel size compared to my hand. Its a .5 fl oz. Its really small but like a perfect travel size at the same time. You really dont need to use alot at all, so the size isn't a problem. Its deffinitly enough to keep in your purse or to take on vacation. The good thing is, that when its empty you can just scoop some out of the normal size jar and put it in the travel one.
This is a 4 fl oz. Its a pretty big size.
Not surprsing the color is purple, well actually a light lavander color. However, when i smelled it, it didn't smell like grape at all. Not even a hint of grape. It doesn't smell bad or anything like that. To me it smells like a cross between baby shampoo and lavander.
This product, besides moisturizing claims to be good for anti-wrinkle and is SPF 15. It tells you to use it in the AM and PM alone or under makeup. So if you don't have makeup that has SPF in it, this is really good to use, as it functions as a dual product.

When i put the moisturizer on my face, after removing my makeup, i put about a quarter size amount and it ended up being too much. So i had to use the rest on my arms.

Pros:

its a good sized product.
i like how it comes with a travel size.
it will last you a long time becuase you hardly need to use any to get the job done. (when i was opening it i got the tinniest amount on my hands, and i was surprised at how moisturized my hands were)
It felt like it was soaking in to my skin, rather than just sitting on top of it.
It very smooth and when it dries its NOT sticky how some moisturizers can be.

Cons:

The only thing i can say is that i was expecting it to smell like grapes because of its name.
