A good fungal acne safe moisturiser. If you apply it on dry skin (without sunscreen after it) it will be quite sticky for a few hours, but i've recently found out that if i apply it on damp skin theres little to no stickyness anymore!

This is hands down the best moisturizing cream I have ever tried. I have acnee prone skin, sensitive skin and I do not tolerate niacinamide. First of all, the ingredient list is soo clean, it has been so hard to find a hydrating cream without niacinamide or pore clogging ingredients. Second I usually break out every time I try a hydrating cream because I have oily skin and the creams do not get absorbed by my skin. I have been using this cream for a week now and my skin has never felt this healthy, when you apply the cream it could feel a bit sticky but when you wash your face you can see that your skin is still soft and hydrated, it's incredible. 10/10 would recommend.
