I use this all year round, either in place of lotion or in combination with lotion, depending on my skin condition and the weather in the morning. It's easy to use and non-irritating, so it's great for my morning vitamin C. In the middle of summer, I use other products to whiten my skin, but I also use it because I want to incorporate vitamin C.
It's an all-in-one product, but I use it as a lid on my skincare routine. It blends in with my skin, leaving it feeling smooth, but the next morning I can feel the firmness. I didn't notice much effect on dullness or dark spots. It has a refreshing citrus scent, so I use it mainly in the summer, but I also use it in other seasons as a cream substitute when my skin feels rough or my pores feel clogged. It may not be enough for those with dry skin.
This all-in-one product is a lifesaver when skincare is a hassle. It has a citrus scent and a refreshing gel texture, making it perfect for the summer. However, it may not be enough for those who prefer moisturized, rich skincare products.
I usually use lotion first in my skincare routine. During this time of year, the dry office environment can make my skin feel stingy and prickly in the evenings, so I use this after my regular skincare routine to protect my skin from dryness. It's not sticky and leaves my skin feeling bouncy. It doesn't interfere with my base makeup.
I've bought this product many times. I started using it because I thought I needed to do something about my pores. It feels smooth and blends into my skin. It's smooth, but I like it because it effectively prevents dryness and isn't sticky. It's a gel that I can rely on for thorough daily care. I've used it so many times I've cherished it.
