I wanted to try this brand's products long time ago and here it's a chance to do so. The amploue is milky and soft, it sinks into the skin very nicely. For my combo skin it is hydrating enough to skip some of the next steps of my routine. Maybe a dry skin will need to use more products afterwards, but for me a toner + the ampoule + a cream is enough. Be aware of the fact that it contains Vitamin C and therefore follow the instructions for use!
