weird as hell consistency but made my face feel nice
I love this night mask/moisturiser, truly a HG! It’s been one of my holy grails for years now, I am on my 5th or 6th jar at the moment, and that’s saying something since it’s so much in it and a little goes a long way!
I use it as my regular moisturiser at night, and often even in my morning routine, I just love the glow that it gives me! The consistency is a bit unique, kind of a jelly type, Show more

Oh No No No
I did not like this at all, this dried out my skin immediately, that it felt so tight. I have very oily skin and I had to put another moisturiser on top it was that try. I also did not like the smell either, I don't like fragrances anyway however, this smelt bad like cat pee! I know Aloe is known to have a smell but this was slightly different. The smell also lingered on my face under Show more
