I suffered from dry skin that made other moisturizers feel like my skin was on fire during the colder months and this was one of the products that brought my skin back to life!!!! Became a holy grail. A little goes a long way and it’s easy to spread out. You can also add a serum to it as well for extra hydration!!
Although i love it, my only con is the price and i go through 2 bottles a year Show more

Leaves my skin feeling hydrated, and I like the niacinamide! Extremely glowy, possibly crossing the line, which some people may not like.
its super light weight almost as if it does nothing, after i apply it i feel like my skin needs more moisture
