It Do Be Burnin!
I had previously been using samples of Simple Micellular water that were around 3 years old (Bad mistake- they were just what I had), which worked wonderfully. I tried this one instead because I could not find the one I was using when I went into Target. This left my skin stinging until it dried, which was usually 5/10 minutes. I kept using it for a few days to see if it stopped but returned it in the end at the advice of my friends.
