this felt so good as a moisturiser in the beginning. My pores felt clean as it had salicylic acid and my skin was soft af. BUT broke me out into painful pimples into a week of trying it out.
This product is amazing. I recently tried the other torriden moisturiser and it did not hydrate throughout the day which caused my skin to produce more oil. Now i have switched to this moisturiser and it is so much better as it is very lightweight but still keeps moisture in ur skin
