“After using this, pimples on my chin line disappeared. The texture of my skin also became really soft. great.”

It’s a non-sticky, water-based formula that offers significant moisturizing benefits. Importantly, I have sensitive skin prone to demodex, skin troubles, and rapid drying. After using this product for more than a month, I’ve found that it perfectly suits my skin type.”

“While it didn’t irritate my skin, I noticed my skin felt oilier compared to when I’ve used other products.”
