Not oily skin friendly
Pros: elegant and beautiful consistency, lightweight, super powerful brightner (it really did made impact on my face acne scars). Cons: weird formulation with very little humectants and a lot of emolients. Not only my skin did not feel hydrated enough, I ended up with a very sticky oily film all over my face. The brightening abilities sometimes were too agressive, I could not use it everyday, otherwise my skin would start to peel off.

has coconut oil! clogged my pores and made me break out like crazy which is sad because the consistency is really nice and smooth.
