First off, I loved the generous amount of product. It felt a bit heavier than a typical toner, more like applying an emulsion or ampoule! The standout feature is its incredible hydration power! My skin had been feeling a bit dry and tight lately, but after slathering this on generously for about three days, I could feel it tackling that deep dryness. It really seemed to quench my skin's thirst! It did leave a bit of a dewy finish and had a slightly sticky texture, so I found it worked better as part of my evening routine rather than under makeup. When I let it absorb overnight, I woke up to gloriously smooth skin that took makeup beautifully!

The scent was reminiscent of ointment or Fucidin, which wasn't my favorite. Fortunately, the smell was only strong during application and was tolerable overall. I focused on applying it to my small bumps and blemishes, but didn't notice much improvement - they didn't get worse, but they didn't really improve either. It was just... okay. Unfortunately, I didn't experience any soothing effects personally.
