The texture is a little heavy and thick, but it spreads well and is easy to apply. It adheres tightly to the skin, moisturizing but not sticky, which I like. I also like the gentle floral scent. The next morning, my skin feels moisturized, and after washing my face, it seems to be smoother. I don't feel a lifting effect, as I'm too old for that, but I hope it will give my skin even a little firmer skin.
