Not a fan of the scent, but it does perform very well. This smells like cucumbers, which some people may find refreshing and like, but I personally do not. This is an extremely gentle, very thin, barely there, semi-milky gel cleanser that is non-foaming. The look and texture of this cleanser kind of reminds me of...sorry for the gross analogy but well...quite frankly...it reminds me of runny snot, but like a non-sticky slick version. It's a liquid-y, runny, gel formula that is kind of chunky-ish...well not chunky, but squirts out in a blob like form that looks like snot. Like I said this is non-foaming, so it doesn't lather up in the slightest at all. It actually kind of feels like you're cleansing your face with a liquid-y aloe vera gel or something of the sort.

Anywho, despite feeling too thin and gentle for my liking and being 100% completely non-foaming/lathering, this actually does a really good job. Like I said, it feels like you're using aloe vera gel to cleanse the face so when I was using it, it didn't feel like it was doing much to cleanse the face, but once I rinsed it off and dried my face this left it nicely cleansed, hydrated, super soft and a bit smoother.

However, despite being a very good cleanser, I still don't like it and wouldn't repurchase it because I don't like the texture...although it would probably be a great cleanser to use if I had a sunburn. I think I would actually like it that particular circumstance, but that's about it. It just feels too thin and gentle and not like a cleanser for my liking, but if you have very sensitive skin like my cousin you would probably enjoy it, and like I said it is very good. I just don't like the texture.

BTW, this pairs very well with a Foreo device if you use one.

I'm someone that has combo skin, oily t-zone with normal u-zone during the summer, and pretty normal-ish skin with a couple dry patches during the winter and this was not hydrating enough for me. When I used this, I woke up with dry skin the next morning...so I tried using a thicker layer the following evening, but I still woke up with dry skin. I tried layering on even more of the face cream the evening after that, but yet again I still woke up with dry skin.

If you have super oily skin then perhaps you'll like this since it's lightweight, thin, and not that emollient, but if you have combo-dry skin it's not going to provide enough moisture for your skin...at least not during the winter. Maybe it would be better during the hot summer months, but I'm not about to go buy this just to see if it might be better during the summer. This stuff is not cheap.

It is a bit dry the first few uses, but once you break past the initial...I guess topcoat or barrier it gets better. I really like how it glides and melts onto your lips, has the perfect hint of color that isn't too sheer or pigmented, and does a great job of moisturizing.

It is expensive for what it is, but it is a good product that I love and am constantly reaching for. I love slathering this on to run errands, bum around the house, for no-makeup days, and natural no-makeup makeup days.

Plus, this contains sunscreen.
