Review: I have an oily, dehydrated skin so I am
always on the lookout for a good hydrating/moisturizing product. This was an experimental purchase; I bought
this after hearing rave reviews from the AB community.
It smells faintly of aloe vera which is cool. I don’t have any problem with the smell.
The gel itself is very thick and cooling. I thought my skin would have trouble
absorbing it because it was so thick, but boy was I wrong. It stays true to it’s name; it soothes my
face really really well and my skin absorbs it fairly quickly too.
My skin used to be very oily but it has improved a lot lately and I
believe, this and Nada’s Bubble Cleanser plays a vital role in that. I use this as the very last step in my
routine, to seal everything in. It is now an indispensable part of my routine
and I have no regrets buying this.
Verdict: 5/5 (Hall of Fame)
