This is nice to use when my skin is stressed out, or on small spots as acne treatment. It has a thick, balmy texture that quickly thins out and feels very light on skin. It is not hydrating/moisturizing enough for me to use alone, so I apply a thicker lotion afterwards. I do like that I can use it as a spot treatment during the day! My favorite one (cosrx centella balm) gives a white cast so it’s only good for night time. I think it does help calm down acne, but I wouldn’t say this product gives overnight results. Using it on a big spot 2-3 days in a row does show improvement though :)
