It does moisturize, it's light, but it might work for oily skin, not sensitive. My skin broke out.

Despite mixed reviews, I’m super happy I tried this moisturizer. However, what was more impressive is after I woke up, my skin still felt soft, and a lot of the irritation of the few pimples I have went away over night. It made me understand why some people in skincare community call some products their holy grail. Though it may not work for everyone, I recommend you at least try it once.
