Good for finishing my routine when I'm irritated. Centella, oat, Glycerine, ceramides and squalene and back to normal in a few days.

I was having high hopes for this product as I have incredibly dry skin but it clogged my pores and broke me out after only two applications. After that I started using it on my body which I surprisingly love!

I thought this might be good for a little extra hydration, but be careful with it if you are prone to milia because I used this in the evening and it gave me a bunch of them around both of my eyes. It worked a little too well

Everyday use really broke me out but it did save my skin barrier a few years ago. Now it’s better I’ll use it a couple of times a month when I feel I need it with no issue.

Love this product for some light daytime hydration.

I've been using it for a few years now and have nothing bad to say about it. It absorbs well, is affordable, and hasn't caused me any irritation.

Current HG for Glass Skin
My main skin concern is dryness/dehydration. I find many medium-body non-comedogenic moisturizers not moisturizing enough, or that they dry more matte than I'd like. I mix 2-3 drops of this into my last step...
