Good for fungal acne but it’s pretty drying. I have dry skin so it’s not the best for me. I’ll be finishing the bottle I have then switching out for something less drying. It’s been good on my fungal acne journey, plus it’s not irritating on my sensitive skin. It’s got simple ingredients but yeah.. drying.

Made all of my skincare itchy
My derm recommended this because i have super sensitive skin. It was fine. No initial reaction. But i noticed all of my skincare that I used afterwards made me itchy. I ended up switching out most of my products trying to get rid of the itch, never realizing this was the culprit. After I stopped using it, i tried some of the old products again and there was no itching.

One off the best moisturizers I've used. It's perfect for my sensitive acne prone skin in the winter. Not too heavy but not too watery either. Got it on sale for like 10 dollars and for the amount it's amazing. Overtime brightened my skin a bit and left it very velvety, so I recommend it for combination skin.
The texture is a little watery but still cream like with a milky shade and a slight flowery? smell, it's almost not noticeable tho.
