Works fine, hard to remove once hardened. Not cruelty free, alternatives with better results are def out there.
Probably great for oily skin but a bit too much for my dry skin. It does clear out pores but there are gentler solutions if you have dry skin.

This one right here - my holy grail.
Bought it with the mindset that I would use it once a week, as a deep moisturizer treatment, ended up using it almost every night.
I do have an oily T-zone but so far, no breakouts. If I do get some, I'll stop using it so frequently but I'm still going to try to find a way to insert it on my routine now and then, because seriously, the skin is SO soft Show more
Big no for oily skin
Too heavy for oily skin. Worsed it.
