★★★☆☆
Expected more hydration
While it feels nice and absorbs quickly, I found it wasn't quite moisturizing enough for my drier areas. I still needed to follow up with a heavier cream, which wasn't what I hoped for as a standalone.

★★★★★
Stronger skin barrier
My skin barrier feels so much stronger and less reactive.
★★★★☆
Good, but not quite a standalone
This is a really nice, light milk that feels great on the skin, and I appreciate how quickly it absorbs. For my combination skin, it's often not quite enough moisture on its own during drier months, so I usually need to layer a cream over it. It does make my skin feel softer, though.
★★★★☆
Good for oily skin
Doesn't make my oily skin feel greasy, but the fragrance is present.
★★★★★
Skin feels so good
My skin has been feeling much smoother since adding this to my routine. The texture has genuinely improved, and it feels healthier overall.
