Burnssssss
Broke me out, made me really really itchy
Overrated moisturizer and it's expensive
I've used three tubs of this and my skin has gotten worse. The first two I noticed my skin gotten oilier than usual, but I want to trust the process like any other people. But I got a breakout on my third tub so I switched to other products and my skin has gotten so much better. This is definitely not for oily skin that needs sebum control..

misleading name
i thought this would be more of a gel cream or watery consistency but it’s actually pretty heavy and thick. the texture of it just feels awful. it feels sticky even if a minimal amount is applied. tried to mist water on my face beforehand but it didn’t do anything. feels like it never soaks in. probably my least favorite moisturizer i’ve tried.
Awful, heavy, greasy and heavily scented
