This moisturizer feels so luxurious. It has such a satin-like finish and a little goes a longgggg way, so the product does last a while. However, I find it difficult to get past the price as I don’t really see a difference with this moisturizer, it does it’s job and feels good but it doesn’t really change my skin in any monumental way. There are definitely better moisturizers out there with better price points.

The WORST moisturizer ive ever had. This doesnt even feel moisturizing and has a VERY strong silicone scent. It made me get closed comedones all over my cheeks and forehead. It took me 4 months to get rid of the comedones and i still have dark spots all over. P.s. i tried everything to remove them - exfoliating, cutting off pore clogging ingredients too. I would never recommend this to anyone.
