- Ceramide-rich and contains humectants like hyaluronic acid for moisture retention
- Lightweight texture that layers well without feeling greasy, favored for oily and combination skin
- Contains niacinamide which can help calm redness and improve barrier function
Watch out for
- Some users report breakouts or cystic acne, possibly due to comedogenic ingredients or niacinamide sensitivity
- Not always hydrating enough for very dry skin, leading some to need heavier occlusive layers
- Can cause burning, redness, or irritation in sensitive skin or when used too soon with retinoids
