Not good for me
I have dry skin and I thought this product would be great for me. It burned a little bit and broke me out like crazy after a few days of using. I gave it to my mom and it worked for her. Do not buy this if you have sensitive skin.
a thin, oil-like serum- do not buy if you hate any sort of greasy-like feeling. Worked amazing with my combination skin, especially through winter on any dry patches. Did not break me out and helped my skin to appear brighter and more even. While it is an oil based serum, it absorbs nicely and layers well with other serums considering they aren’t overdone.

Hate the texture so much, that I can not use it really
This is 94% solvent which can be quite irritating. The anhydrous texture is also annoying. But it works well when mixed with a moisturizer.
