The tub contains two creams, one is cream type (for moisture) the other is gel type (pore care). The instructions states to mix the two so you can benifit from both. But even the mixing part is hard. It is also very heavy and hot on the face. I tried to just use thd gel type because I cannot bear the cream. After using it for a month, I finally gave up. 🤦🏻♀️ It did not do anything to the apprearance of my pores. Sometimes my face gets clogged up. And lastly, I cannot layer other products with it as it does not absorb well.
