Really suitable for Oily and Acne prone skin
I have oily and acne prone skin, and this is a moisturizer that didnt break me out. I live in Malaysia, so the weather is quite humid and it affects such skin condition a lot.
The texture of this product is literally gel-like as advertised, not oily at all since it doesnt have oil ingredients. However, the gel texture is also like the gel you put on Show more
if only they didn't include Ascorbyl Palmitate in their ingredients, it would've been fungal-acne safe and this moisturizer would've been perfect ðŸ˜
