I LUVV THIS
-packaging is unique to me and its scent is delicious, reminds me of the laneige korean toner scent.
-1. its moisturizing and seals in all the product i used on my face, but is sticky and takes time to absorb after application
-2. product dispense is controlled where a little can go a long way, for 150ML i feel like this will last me months bc of the easy spread, lightweight, but thick consistency.
-3.
beware! i would describe the fragrance to be strong which can be irritating for some.

I really wanted to love this, but after using it for a few days on the dry patches under my eyes and nose, I noticed it had settled into my pores and started forming blackheads. 😭
It makes a nice hand cream for my bathroom, though.

Didn't love this moisturiser, it sometimes made my sensitive skin quite itchy and uncomfortable. From aveeno, I prefer their 100ml moisturising cream, it's cheaper and worked better for me.
