UPDATED REVIEW: unfortunately, this eventually started to break me out. I suspect butylene glycol and squalane being high in concentration is what gave me trouble. I have extremely sensitive and acne prone skin though, so I still stand by Purito as a brand and this particular product, it’s just not for me… *cries* I love how it made my skin glow aside from the breakouts. Just another note- it’s best to apply this to damp skin as it can feel sticky otherwise.

I started this when my skin in summer 2023 when I had a severely damaged skin barrier. In the fall as the weather changed I combined it with Purito Dermide. (I stopped using it in the winter and used Purito Dermide only.) Now in the late spring I am using it again in my morning routine. It is light, soothing, helps with redness, brightens my skin and a great product.

Former HG -
I've used this product for years and recently did some digging around it that changed my mind. I believe aloe leaf extract is a powdered concentrate of aloe that is rehydrated with water, in contrast to aloe leaf juice which is freshly pressed (?). Some of its beneficial properties are lost in the dehydrating/reconstituting process of formulating with the extract. This gel also contains phenethyl alcohol (very low concentration) which is essentially fragrance and therefore potentially irritating. Gonna try something different next time.

great
its very good for oily skin as it moisturises without leaving it feeling greasy. What i noticed is that it stings whenever this product touches an irritated part of my face; for example, after waxing my face. Overall, it is an alright product and i reccomend gua sha with it!
