It's so nice to find a moisturizer thick enough for the cold months that doesn't clog your pores and break you out. It has a creamy and a little bit of a thick texture, but it's perfect for oily skin in during the winter (although it might feel a little bit heavy during summer, specially in humid areas). The best part is that it never pills when I combine it with other products like my sunscreen. I love that's 59ml so you get more product than in any other regular cream that usually have only 50ml. And the smell is also great, like freshly cut grass, very similar to the "Youth To The People Kale Cleanser", but milder.

I love the texture, it feels like a very luxurious product, although, once you apply it to your face it feels a little bit oily. I guess it's better for people with dry skin and not oily like mine. The good part, is that despite the oiliness of the formula it's non-comedogenic and it hasn't given me any acne breakouts. If you have oily skin, I would recommend only during winter, and preferably at night. But the reason i give it 4 stars is the smell. I've noticed that not everybody can actually detect it, but if you are very sensible to certain smells you are probably going to hate it until you get used to it (and still, you won't like it). It's a very strong smell, it reminds me of a very old and humid house. But as I said, not everybody can smell it, so maybe you're lucky and it doesn't bother you. I hope so, because it's a very high quality product, and it's really worth it if your skin is dehydrated.
