Love it! Use it every evening and find it to be super hydrating.
If you are okay with oils, are on the dry side and don’t like the feeling of squalane - this will change your life. I use it on the occasions when I want an occlusive, a product that you use last in your routine to help retain moisture in your skin. Has definitely strengthened my skin barrier, doesn’t irritate.

I have tried many facial oils and never found one my skin likes. This oil is the one my skin really enjoys. I mix it into products. Usually, Stratia Lipid Gold and it feels really good. It's a nice protective barrier before I apply moisturizer. I have really dry, sensitive skin. I took one star off because the dropper is the bane of my existence. It always manages to come off.
used as quick fix for redness, only half a day effect, rec using ordinary caffeine eye product on the face instead for a bit longer effect but still not long-lasting, need to use both all the time to keep the effect
