What the community says
Pros
- Light gel texture that sinks in quickly without feeling sticky or heavy
- Fragrance-free version available, which is preferred by sensitive skin users
- Good layering base under sunscreen and makeup without pilling or clogging
Cons
- Fragranced version frequently causes irritation and breakouts, especially on sensitive or acne-prone skin
- Many find it not hydrating enough for dry skin or retinoid-induced dryness, often requiring additional occlusives
- Some experience a bothersome film or sticky residue that doesn’t absorb fully, leading to discomfort
