I’ve got combo skin that is prone to breakouts with the wrong products and I’ve been struggling lately to find something that won’t break me out. Using this 2x daily for the last week I’ve not had any issues which I’m grateful for. It’s not very hydrating however, and it’s got a slightly unpleasant chemical/plastic scent which I’m assuming is the natural odor of the ingredients they use. This product would probably be good to revisit during the summer when it’s not so dry, and when my skin isn’t so stripped from all the acne treatments I’ve been using.
