This essence was okay. For the price point, I definitely believe that there are better FTEs out there with more competitive pricing.
I can’t figure this one out. There isn’t anything that should irritate me besides the perfume, but every time i use this, i get little white heads on my chin. Will possibly circle back and try again with other products.
