No frills type of moisturizer. No bad reactions, no complaints on the texture and how it absorbs into my skin. I guess I wasn't a fan of the smell?...
No frills type of moisturizer. No bad reactions, no complaints on the texture and how it absorbs into my skin. I guess I wasn't a fan of the smell? Not that strong though. Overall, it is a great choice for newbies in skincare, especially those with sensitive skin. Might bump it up to 5 stars if this becomes the product I will always go back to.
