Love this product! Just finished a whole bottle. Very soothing ingredients and doesn’t clog my pores or cause any irritation! Once it dries down it feels nice on the skin and doesn’t pill with other products. Perfect for anyone concerned with fungal acne too!

If my skin is extra dry I’ll apply two layers of this and it’s enough hydration (my skin type is combination).

This product was super sticky and I couldn’t wait to get it off my face by cleansing again. Disappointed because I love Chemist Confessions.
