This product was annoyingly watery, in my opinion, and I'm not sure how much it was really soothing my skin, even when applying many layers.

This hydrates my skin very well and gives that “glass skin” look. It doesn’t feel sticky and absorbs quickly. But something in this is breaking me out, no idea which ingredient is the culprit. Gives me tiny pimples in different areas of my face each day I use it. I’m disappointed because it seems like a great product for those with sensitive acne prone skin like myself, but my skin just doesn’t Show more

This is so hydrating and great for my combination sensitive skin! It’s also way better than the isntree ultra low molecular toner in terms of hydration and results it provides. This toner did not make my face burn nor red in fact it calmed down my redness and provided me with a great amount of hydration, I also noticed how my makeup base was a lot more flawless than before. Not to mention this Show more
