It gives a nice hydrating boost but I didn't see much difference, so I'm still stuck with the first bottle after 4 months.
It stings sometimes so I wouldn't repurchase it again.
🎀Update: I gave this product another chance to see if it works since the ingredients were too good, so I used it as a toner for 15 days and I loved it.
Not only did it hydrate my skin, but it brightened my old acne Show more

Mugwort works well for my skin to calm and soothe redness. The essence was hydrating, but it’s missing the “oomph”. I think this would be good for oily or combo skin. It just wasn’t hydrating enough for my skin type and climate.
