Love this product for some light daytime hydration.
I've been using it for a few years now and have nothing bad to say about it. It absorbs well, is affordable, and hasn't caused me any irritation.
Current HG for Glass Skin
My main skin concern is dryness/dehydration. I find many medium-body non-comedogenic moisturizers not moisturizing enough, or that they dry more matte than I'd like. I mix 2-3 drops of this into my last step cream moisturizer for an extra boost of dew, avoiding my nose if it feels too oily.
