This product doesn’t reduce my redness at all. I still use it because it leaves my skin feeling hydrated and it’s not irritating. It only becomes irritating if I apply it after I shave, which is normal.

i kinda feel like it doesnt do anything. although its slightly on the thicker side, it absorbs almost immediately and doesn't leave the skin very hydrated.

i've tried using it on its own to test out the effect and it quite literally feels like theres absolutely nothing on my face.

i've also tried leaving it out of my routine to notice any difference, but there was none 😭

...at least the Show more
