Feels soothing and hydrating on the skin but doesn't leave it sticky. From my experience it has calmed my irritated skin as well as helped heal my acne scars. Bottle is small but lasts, and it's usually better with two pumps for my dry skin. Fair warning tho, be careful when pumping so that you catch all of it in your hands, otherwise it will go shooting somewhere else in your bathroom lol. Great product overall!
