This moisturiser has a gel like texture and it is quite hydrating even though I have dry skin but this sits well on my face. I like how it isn’t too moisturising which is perfect for me as I prefer using a lighter cream before applying sunscreen for my AM routine so it doesn’t feel too heavy on my skin. However, it is not hydrating enough for those with super dry skin. I have used this moisturiser Show more
It didn't do too much. My skin needs a thicker consistency and this one didn't make it for me.
