You don’t need much for it to be effective, around 1/4 tsp.. The cloud like foam feels like silk as you massage into the skin. I love how gentle this is and that it doesn’t strip my skin. Has helped to calm my occasionally irritated skin and it has reduce some redness, only slightly though. My skin is noticeably brighter and it has helped refine the texture along cheeks. My skin is softer and more smooth after using. My biggest con, which is new since this is my second bottle, it seems like the formula has changed in the past 1-2 years? I never had an issue with this one drying my face but this new jar leaves my face feeling slightly dry. PROS: ✅ Free of parabens, sulfates, fragrance, mineral oil ✅ Gentle. Doesn’t irritate or strip my skin ✅ Skin feels softer and more smooth ✅ Calms irritated skin ✅ Reduces redness slightly ✅ Skin is brighter ✅Refines texture
