It's a transparent serum, gel consistency, with a modest, sweet smell. 3-4 drops are enough to cover all the face, it's a bit sticky, but when it absorbs -  the stickiness is gone. It's a product that doesn't work alone, you should combine it with toner before and cream after. Since I use it my skin looks more plumped, elastic and smooth, I don't have problems with my pores,so can't tell if it's useful in that direction. It can be used on sensitive skin. I would say it's a great deal, for the price.
