Pros

- A solid night cream with glass skin results.
- Smells like fruit loops.
Cons
- Hard to incorporate into some routines because of many interactions with other ingredients.
- Small breakouts (white heads) next day, ever time I used it. My skin never ended up tolerating it.
Overall: Recommend, just not for me. I needed to double cleanse anytime I used it or it clogged my pores.
