Stopped using since i felt like it's breaking me out badly!
i have so many clogged pores now and painful acne that I haven't had for so long.
Plus it pills like crazy during the day and doesn’t feel soothing nor hydrating
Helped soothing my skin so much after ruining it with some kskincare Experiments... used it for a couple of days in combination with the 5B+ in the evening and restored my skin so fast.
