First off, I'm impressed by its spray power, reminiscent of a can spray. Compared to the Alteya Organics Rose Water spray I used before, this one has finer particles that spread more evenly. As a result, it absorbs quickly, leaving the skin feeling deeply hydrated. My skin tends to accumulate a lot of dead skin cells, requiring exfoliation every other day, but with this, I feel like I can skip a day without much concern. It seems to be improving my skin texture - I've noticed my skin producing some natural oils again when I wake up, something I haven't experienced since my twenties. That's a good sign in my book! Despite containing AHA and BHA, which I thought might be irritating, it's incredibly gentle. The mildness is comparable to rose water.

I've been using it for over a week now, and I haven't experienced any blemishes or discomfort with the product. If anything comes up, I'll update this review. +++++ Update: Like most AHA/BHA products, this one can be a bit drying, especially as we're entering the drier seasons. My usual skincare routine was toner-essence/ampoule-eye cream-moisturizing gel, but I found myself feeling dry and tight with my usual amount. I've increased the amount of moisturizing gel by about 1.5 times, which has helped somewhat. In conclusion, the lack of hydration and moisture is a bit disappointing overall.

The fine mist spreads widely, so you might accidentally over-apply. One pump per facial area is just right for full coverage. I've always preferred spray formulas over wipe-off types, finding them less fussy and more convenient, so this is perfect for someone like me. +++++ Update: The formula evaporates quickly, which might lead to a feeling of dryness. After cleansing and patting dry, it's best to spray generously all over until your skin feels thoroughly moisturized. Don't be shy with the application, as it absorbs rapidly.
