It should come as no surprise that this product is now a staple in my skincare routine. It layers well with other products, whether it’s makeup, serums, or creams, and it absorbs well, leaving behind a natural finish (that leans more dewy than matte). Our tester noted that it does take a couple of minutes to fully absorb, but it doesn’t leave any residue behind, just super moisturized skin (which may make it better as part of a nighttime skincare routine). If you want a formula that leaves your skin looking plump and firm, and doesn’t skimp on the hydrating benefits, this is the one for yo
