I started using it cuz it was so popular in olive young. And it's actually good. I use it after ISOI blemish serum and it's perfect for the summer because it's very light and doesn't make my skin oily. The texture is basically like aloe vera. It's way more hydrating than aloe vera tho. It has almost no scent and super mild. Saved my oily skin
