Rating
I would recommend this product to someone with dry skin who is looking for extra hydration and moisture.
However, I do not recommend this for someone who is looking for a product to help with acne and the fading of dark spots and pigmentation.
I will be giving this essence 2/5 stars as it doesn't have any effect on my skin except the only benefit of it being more supple and soft whenever I use it.
