Avonia albissima is now Anacampseros albissima, and is commonly known as the White Anacampseros, it is a small succulent plant species that belongs to the family Anacampserotaceae. It is native to South Africa and is appreciated for its attractive appearance, caudex, and compact growth habit.
Avonia albissima forms low-growing rosettes of tightly clustered leaves. The rosettes are made up of thick, fleshy leaves that are typically green with a powdery white or silvery coating, giving the plant its distinctive appearance. The powdery coating helps to protect the plant from excessive sunlight and reflects light, reducing water loss.
The leaves of Avonia albissima are typically oval-shaped or elongated and can have slightly pointed tips. The edges of the leaves may exhibit a reddish or pinkish hue, especially under bright light conditions. The plant remains relatively small, with rosettes reaching a diameter of about 3 to 4 inches (7 to 10 centimeters). It also grows a very impressive caudex!
Avonia albissima is a perennial plant that produces delicate, star-shaped flowers that can vary in color. The flowers emerge on slender stalks above the rosettes and can be pink, purple, or white, adding a touch of beauty when in bloom. The flowering period usually occurs during the warmer months.
In terms of care, Avonia albissima is a relatively easy-to-care-for succulent. It prefers well-draining soil and requires infrequent watering. Like other succulents, it is susceptible to root rot if overwatered, so it is important to let the soil dry out between waterings. This plant thrives in bright, indirect light but can tolerate some shade.
Avonia albissima can be grown both indoors and outdoors, depending on the climate. In colder regions, it is often cultivated as a houseplant or in containers that can be brought indoors during winter. It can also be planted in rock gardens, succulent arrangements, or as ground cover in suitable outdoor conditions.
Overall, Anacampseros albissima is a charming and visually appealing succulent with its silvery leaves and delicate flowers. It is a great addition to succulent collections or as a decorative accent in various settings.

Perfect for Sensitive Skin Without Feeling Heavy
Size: 3 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
I have very sensitive skin and finding a facial moisturizer that hydrates well without causing irritation can be a challenge. This one has been fantastic. It feels lightweight going on but still gives enough moisture that my skin stays soft and comfortable all day. No strong fragrance, no burning, no breakouts, just simple and effective skincare.
I also really like that it layers well under makeup and doesn’t leave my face feeling greasy or sticky. The ceramides and hyaluronic acid make my skin feel healthier and more balanced overall. Vanicream continues to be one of the few brands my skin consistently tolerates well. I’ve already repurchased this and will keep using it.

Good for sensitive skin, zero fragrance, leaves skin soft and moisturized!
Size: 3 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
I got this to go along with my Vanicream sensitive skin cleanser, and I'm very happy with it! It is a little more liquidy than cream-like, but it absorbs into skin well and leaves it feeling soft and moisturized. Great for sensitive skin and completely free of fragrance, with a shorter ingredient list that gives me more peace of mind. Very pleased with this, try it!

Great Value for a Good Moisturizer (5- Stars)
Size: 3 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
This moisturizer contains nothing fancy — and that’s the whole point. The ingredients are few but effective, with several ceramides and hyaluronic acid for deep and long-lasting hydration. Best of all, it contains no silicones or parabens. Because it’s noncomedogenic, it doesn’t cause breakouts from clogged pores. Since I have sensitive skin, all of the above are critical for my skin care routine.
It’s about as simple and as effective as a cream can get. Because of that, it doesn’t contains any sunscreen, retinol, or other anti-wrinkle components.

Excellent facial moisturizer

Very gentle, lightweight, absorbs well without feeling greasy or heavy. Perfect to use after Fraxel laser treatment. I also like it is fragrance free and really good on sensitive skin.

Medium weight minimal ingredient moisturizer!
Size: 3 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
As with another review, I’m looking for a replacement/dupe for Eucerin Urea Repair face moisturizer which is 5% urea
Skin concerns: dry rosacea, mid-40s, arid climate with 4 seasons, winters are cold and snowy and summers are 90°+ for most.
This is a medium-weight moisturizer that I consider not greasy at all. It is not as hydrating as I need it to be for my dry skin type with rosacea. Thickness wise I say it is similar to a standard facial sunscreen.
It does last overnight, in the morning I can still feel it in some areas. I will try increasing how much I apply in order to see if it helps with how much staying power it has. This may increase the hydration it provides and I will update my review to report back.
I had a very mild stinging sensation but my rosacea is struggling since moving to a dry climate. Once I repair my skin barrier a bit, I fully expect this will cease.
Due to this, I’m not going to get my husband to try it, he has constantly broken skin from severe eczema and stinging is something that makes him not use moisturizers. It’s a battle!
For people in more humid climates this may be a more effective moisturizer, or those with less-dry skin than me. I never have flakes so this wasn’t a parameter for me.
There is no tint. I’m not sure about white cast so I can’t rate it for skin tone. But I don’t feel there would be, this seems translucent unless you really go in with it.
For me it is reasonably effective. It’s probably a good day moisturizer and I expect it plays well with sunscreen, though I would definitely let it absorb or dry down. Which is pretty standard for daytime skin care.
There is a slight grippy feeling when applying, but this dissipates like the Eucerin Urea Repair does.
This is not, for me, a replacement or dupe for Eucerin Urea Repair. It is a great value for the price!
Overall for someone with skin like mine I rate it a very solid 4/5. I would likely purchase again for a lightweight moisturizer as a more affordable substitute for Beauty Of Joseon Dynasty Cream for day. Though this does not give me the “bounce” that does. Alas.
Updated to add: I tried increasing the amount I apply, and that eliminated any grippy feeling when applying. I now apply both day and night and this has helped repair my barrier enough it doesn’t sting when I apply this. I still have a way to go before I can return to using my sunscreen, but I do work in a building with no windows so the few minutes I am outside, it’s okay if I go without.
If I apply this to my eyes, it doesn’t sting them, which is great, my eyes are extremely sensitive and I hesitated, but it works out just fine. It isn’t thick enough to cause whiteheads to form on my lids, unlike some balm-type moisturizers (LRP!) and even unfortunately Bioderma Sensibio Eye+
I have noticed the backs of my hands are improved as I wipe off excess onto the backs of my hands and into my cuticles. I was genuinely surprised by this, it’s not like I don’t wash my hands. I wasn’t expecting it to have any effect, but the stinging scaley hands are gone, now my hands just feel normal, even after wearing wool fingerless gloves all day at work.
I will continue to use this product and will repurchase even after my financial situation improves.
