While I’ve always loved Alicia Keys for her countless hits, like “No One” and “You Don’t Know My Name,” there’s one thing that I’ve admired above all else — her skin. I didn’t start wearing makeup until I turned 21, so taking care of my face was always a top priority. Luckily, my skin-care routine, featuring tried-and-true products like my go-to witch hazel toner, has kept my skin in good shape so far. However, going through basic maturity has caused me to pay a bit more attention to my complexion, especially when it comes to retaining moisture. That’s how I discovered the Keys Soulcare Firm Belief Smoothing Peptide Cream ($50).

Because my skin is relatively sensitive and considered normal to oily, I’ve kept a small pool of moisturizers and serums in my daily rotation. However, I really wanted to try a product that was not only moisturizing but also weightless. This one from Keys Soulcare is a multi-function cream that works to keep my skin hydrated and firm all day long (no exaggeration) without clogging my pores.

What I Like About the Keys Soulcare Firm Belief Smoothing Peptide Cream
Prior to using this product, I had zero knowledge of peptides and their benefits for the skin. After learning that they have multiple miracle-working properties, including smoothing wrinkles, preventing breakouts, and improving the skin’s barrier and texture, I was even more excited to put this cream to the test. Lo and behold, this product truly lives up to what it claims to do. As soon as I applied it to my skin, I felt a refreshing sensation and loved how well it layered with my toner and serum. I was also pleased to discover that there was little to no oil build-up after wearing the product all day.
I also love that the saying, “a little goes a long way,” applies to this moisturizer. Since it’s thick in texture, you only need a few dabs on your skin to reap the benefits, which allows the product to last long.
How to Use the Keys Soulcare Firm Belief Smoothing Peptide Cream
The Firm Belief Smoothing Peptide Cream comes in a convenient cylinder jar, which allows for easy access. I like to apply it to the four corners of my face — my cheeks, forehead, and chin — or take a small amount into my fingertips and rub it in as needed. There’s also an affirmation printed on the bottle that you can recite to yourself: “I am stronger than I know.”
What to Consider Before Trying the Keys Soulcare Firm Belief Smoothing Peptide Cream
