First impression? The texture is unreal—like whipped velvet. I let it sit at room temp for an hour (per the summer heat warning), and it fluffed up perfectly. Spreads like a dream on damp skin, and a little goes a long way.
I use it at night after retinol, and wow—no irritation, just instant relief. My 40-something skin drinks it up. Woke up with my rosacea-prone cheeks calmer and smoother. Even my husband asked if I’d gotten a facial!
The scent is… unique. Not perfumey, just a faint citrus-meets-earthy vibe. Personally, I dig it, but if you’re sensitive, they offer an unscented version on Etsy.
Pro tip: Warm a dab between fingers before applying. It transforms from waxy to silky. I’ve even used it on my elbows and stretch marks—bye-bye, crepey texture.
Only con? It’s *rich*. I’m combo-skinned, so I use it sparingly in daytime. But for night? 10/10. My skin hasn’t felt this bouncy since my 20s.
