This product didn't work for me, I think it was over hydrating as most times I used it, I would get small pimples on my face, I have normal to oily skin. If you had dry skin, I believe you'd love this product! For an essence, it's a little thick as it comes out of the pump almost like a cream. It spread really easily on the skin and has a light sweet scent. Once it absorbs into the skin, it made my skin feel so soft and hydrated. You really don't need much of this product.
