As you can see from the swatches ,it is non oily formula and get absorbed by skin.
Pro's:
1)It is Oil free moisturiser and does not make face greasy or more oily.
2)It is very affordable and one tube will easily last one month.
3)I use this to prep my skin before applying foundation/compact.
4)It does not break me out.
5)It contains 0.5% Salicylic acid which is acne fighting ingredient.It helps with Mild/Moderate Acne.
6)It is white cream which is absolutely oil free,gets easily absorbed by skin and very little quantity about 50paisa coin size is required for entire face.
7)It is suitable for Normal/Oily/Acne prone skin.
8)Although it contains fragrance,it does not contain irritating or overpowering fragrance unlike some cosmetics.
9)It is small,handy and convenient to carry in bag.
Con's:
1)It does have mildly comedogenic ingredients like stearic acid and glceryl stearate.Though it does not break me out ,might not suit everyone.This is not entirely non-comedogenic.
2)It is not alcohol-free.
3)It is not enough moisturising for winters and dry skin.
4)Salicylic acid may not suit every one.
Final Verdict:
Since I have Oily Skin,I am always on the look out for products which are oil free and non comedogenic. This is a pretty good product.It might not favour severe acne prone skin.Most of the times,I just apply this moisturiser and dust a little compact for my everyday use.
My Rating:4/5
Disclaimer:
It is advisable not to use salicylic acid products with strong acne treatments like glycolic acid,benzoyl peroxide,retinoids,isotretinoin etc.
