It causes me a very slight itch when I apply it, otherwise it is absorbed quickly and is refreshing.

I have already bought it twice, it is the cream that I keep coming back to, even though I have tried other creams. I have combination skin, and although my skin does not absorb other creams, this cream is absorbed and leaves my skin looking radiant and fully hydrated. Regardless of some people who are negative about the "jar" - the cream comes with a spoolie, so its application is super easy, and above all, you can see how much product you have left until your next purchase.

It is indeed a gel cream. It leaves your face perfectly hydrated. I use it at night and in the morning your face thanks you. It doesn't leave a feeling of tightness, has a light scent, and is not matte (which I incredibly like), but it makes your whole face shine from hydration.

Apart from the fact that the packaging is not convenient because you have to put your hand inside to apply the cream, I have combination to oily skin and it doesn't absorb at all. All day my face gets oily and I feel like my face is sticky.

I have been buying it for years. I have combination skin with tendencies for acne and some dry areas. It has a light moisturizing gel feel that spreads very easily, especially on a damp face and requires a small amount. It is not matte in any case. If I haven't put on makeup, it will definitely give me a slight greasiness, but it doesn't cause acne. Unfortunately, they used to sell it in a 100ml package at the same price, something they stopped doing last year. It is moisturizing and soothing without being heavy and extremely greasy. I would prefer it not to be in an open jar because you are forced to put your hands inside. I have bought a jar with a pump and transfer it.
