This gel is a lightweight option for those with oily skin or during very humid days. Aside from a face moisturizer, it can also be used as body moisturizer, hair treatment and after shave gel. It softens my hair the way a traditional conditioner would, but it won't act as a deep conditioner. In my experience, it also works well as a soothing gel after waxing too. This is one of those multi use products that will come in handy sitting in your bathroom.
