This is very gentle and feels like thick water when it goes onto my skin, my skin definitely feels the benefits whenever I use this. It's super light on the skin, I've never felt any film or problem with layering, I've even put this on under makeup several times with no problems. I've never experienced any irritation at all, it feels very pure and hydrating! I love this line, Japanese brands really don't skimp out on great ingredients for affordable prices.

Its hydrating, yes, but sticky too. I dont mind stickyness so much, but I feel like it leaves a film on my skin, and when I applied something over it, I felt whole film melting and moving around. I dont know if thats good....
Also what is mostly disappointing, Its breaking me out like crazy. It took me time to figure out that its THIS fault. I wasnt using it on everyday basics, Im all the time into COSRX Snail Mucin Essence, and this one was meant to be a treatment from time to time. I started to get tiny bumps all over my face, especially t-zone. Its suprising, because Im not an oily or combo person, I have dry skin and I almost never get pimples or anything.
I stopped using it for good, and everything healed, so I must say no to this lotion :(
I think it might be parabens which it contains, on everyday basics I never use cosmetics with parabens.
