The oil has a nice scent and is absorbed easily without being sticky. The lotion is also highly moisturizing.
The oil doesn't blend into my skin, and it repels the lotion... Since my skin gets so dry in the winter, I always use an oil-based serum. This year, I've been interested in Athletia, a scent I've always loved! The scent is outstanding. The forest scent is soothing. However, when I apply the oil and then the lotion, the lotion doesn't blend into my skin and remains on my face. It really feels like water is being placed on top of the oil and then repelled. These two products are supposed to be enough, but since I have super dry skin, I also layer a cream from another company on top at the end. It's very moisturizing, but I still feel dry during the day and when I wake up in the morning. It doesn't seem to be doing much to combat dryness. I didn't feel like my skin was particularly cleared up, so unfortunately, I don't think I'll be repurchasing it. It's a mini, but the container is quite sturdy and heavy, so maybe it's not suitable for travel?
I previously tried the oil and lotion samples and they were so good, I decided to purchase this mini-size set. First of all, the scent is great! It has an indescribable, soothing, herbal scent. I don't like oil-based products because they cause breakouts, but this oil actually has a soothing effect, and my breakouts are better the next day, leaving my skin in a very stable condition. The lotion also has a similar herbal scent, and I like the texture - it's moisturizing but not sticky. I would like to buy the full product, but it's quite expensive, so I'm grateful for this size! I also like the simple and stylish packaging.
I bought this because I wanted to try the oil. I really like the smell. I love herbal scents, so it makes me feel happy. The oil isn't too heavy or sticky, so it's pretty good. It also comes with a lotion, which also has a nice scent and a watery texture that's highly moisturizing, but doesn't feel sticky or dry. I think I might buy the larger size of the oil next time.
I bought this product because I thought it would be good for sensitive skin during the change of seasons. I've only used it a few times so far, but I really like the feel and scent. It leaves my skin feeling plump and supple, and I'm very satisfied. I plan to continue using it.
