so soothing and cooling i use this under my moisturiser or alone

Not suitable for sensitive rosacea skin
From the ingredients this looks like a great product but sadly it aggravated my rosacea and dried my skin. I suspect it's the kiwi extract. A big disappointment for me.
The texture is a very light gel that wouldn't be moisturizing on its own for someone with dry skin.
Ingredients list looks excellent...but I found out it was triggering my redness and drying out my skin. Only discovered this after using the whole tub lol
