My sensitive, acne prone skin loves this product - 2 pumps into hands and massage into dry face and anywhere else that spf was applied to that morning. Leaves skin feeling soft, rinses off easily without leaving residue, NO irritation. Used it every night for 3 months now, and I have a quarter of the bottle left still, so don't be put off by the slightly higher price!
