On the watery side, but still effective. Not as hydrating as others, often still feel dry and need to apply more.

This is a holy grail for me fr. I have very oily skin and have a really hard time finding moisturizers that don’t just worsen that issue. This is so lightweight and my skin drinks it up like water. Makes my skin more bouncy and glowy. Makes my skin feel clean and refreshed. It’s soothing too. Works great as a primer under makeup. Even though this was the first snail mucin product I ever tried and Show more
