It's a thick gel, and even this one product is enough to moisturize my skin. I used it in the morning and then layered sunscreen on top, but it didn't feel cakey and I didn't feel dry all day. I haven't really noticed any results in terms of whitening or wrinkle improvement since I only used it for a short time, but it's very reassuring and reassuring when I want to take care of my skin but can't...! There are many all-in-one products with better cost performance, but since this one is also for sensitive skin, I think it's reassuring to have one as a protective cosmetic.
On days when I'm incredibly tired, doing my skincare routine after a shower is just too much of a hassle. So I bought this all-in-one product that I could quickly apply and be done with. The ingredients are perfectly fine, and it doesn't smear, but it does have the thick texture that's typical of all-in-one products, which makes it feel sticky. I wish the feel could be improved a bit, but it didn't dry out my skin the next morning. It's neither good nor bad. That said, I'm a lazy person who only uses one product, so I guess that can't be helped.
I bought the trial size. It's pretty good. The scent is normal too.
I tried it right away, and on the second day, I could feel my face become smooth and silky every time I touched it while washing my face in the morning. The lotion absorbed well, and the results were quite satisfactory. Since it is a quasi-drug, you can use it with confidence. I also recommend it for those with sensitive skin.
I love it! I bought it along with Clear Solution after seeing Babitan's YouTube channel for Falling in Love. It's a handy product to have on hand when you just want to fall asleep as quickly as possible. I usually like to take my time with my skincare, so I use other products, but before I get tired and fall asleep without removing my makeup, I use a sheet-type makeup remover, then Clear Solution, and then this one. It's so easy! And my skin feels great the next morning, so even though I don't use it every day, it's an all-in-one gel I want to keep on hand. There are a lot of people who recommend cosmetics on YouTube, and almost everyone uses filters. Babitan doesn't use a filter, so I can trust her. Even if other people had recommended it, I wouldn't have bought it. I bought it because Babitan said it was good, and it was definitely worth it!
