The direction says to use it in the last step of the skincare routine. The cream comes with a little spatula for scooping out the product which is nice bc I don’t like digging my finger in the tub. The texture of the cream is that of a “pudding”. Cream in color with a herbal fresh scent & absorbs quickly. . . I noticed that my makeup goes on smoothly. I can still see my pores but they don’t seem to look back at me like they normally did. . . Note that there’re alcohols & fragrance in the formula but there’re also lipids, oils & botanical extracts to prevent the skin from drying. . . About dimethicone - maybe one of the most debated ingredient next to preservatives. Dimethicone has been used in personal care products since 1950’s to help with product texture & smooth the skin. It’s made of silicone oil & silicone oil is made from silica & silica is basically sand & quartz. I promise that I’ll write a post about this ingredient. Bottom line is silicone doesn’t bother me. Silicone allergies are rare & most people who say that they’re allergic to it are actually allergic to something else in the formula. I’m not saying that it never happened.
