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 Show more
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.

Great moisturizer for sensitive skin
One of the few moisturizers that do not hurt my skin, or make me break out. It's fairly basic, but that's exactly what my skin needs/wants most of the time.

I have not tried that one yet, since it contains a few more actives, which is precisely not what I want... If Show more
This product moisturize my skin and never clogged my pores.
