1) Lipids and fatty acids are high on the list and physically evident too.
2) Very rich but there is a mix of fast penetrating oils and good fats. And slow penetrating too. Some of which leave a layer on the skin that created a barrier to hold in oil free products in my regime like my toner and serum. So water/hydration attention improved immensely over a 2 week period.
3) The texture allows for layering but also the oily texture allows for facial massage which I really liked as I can relieve tension in my face at night with my hands or a tool using this. This product left room to create my own targetted essence pads which I found to be the most effective way to use this.
4) The mix of fats, oils, hydrators and humectants meant on late nights I could skip a few steps in my regime. It hydrates and moisturises and gently soothes. I found to be gentle post facial threading and dermaplanning. Not irritable, calmed redness, no bumps either.
5) Even with a lipid layer on my skin post application heavier creams and oils at night still worked and it caused no dispruption to my morning routine especially my sunscreen application and reapplication
6) After 2 weeks I saw an improvement in post cleansing hydration on my damaged area around my mouth, surface texture and the post inflammatory hyperpigmentation skin damage from a waxing accident I had last year.
