It comes packaged in a plastic jar with a spatula. This watery gel-cream texture is unscented and has a translucent color. Due to it’s liquid consistency be very careful to not tip the jar when you open the lid to not spill the product since it doesn’t have any shape or body to it.

The lightweight texture allows the product to penetrate deep into the skin. It absorbs quickly and leaves skin with a nice dewy finish. I usually wait a few minutes for the product to full absorb before moving onto my next skincare steps or makeup application. It has a cooling sensation that soothes sensitive areas of the skin.

You only need a small scoop of product to cover entire face. This gel-cream plumped and filled in all the lines on my face instantly. I was quite surprised by how light it felt and deeply hydrating since it was not sitting on top of my skin. I usually apply one light layer but can easily apply a second layer for extra hydration.

I like keeping a product like this in my routine that is suitable year round. I have dry skin and enjoy this in the AM. During the summer it is perfect in humid weather and allows skin to breathe. In the PM, I use it underneath my night time moisture as an extra layer of hydration before apply a thicker moisturizer. Oily to Combo skin will like this during the winter months and makes a good PM moisturizer.
