Thoughts: I have never heard of this brand and for that reason, I was curious about this product. Not only that, I was curious how hydrating gel creams are.

Here's a closer look at the opening.

Here's a swatch of the product on my hand.

Now for my overall opinion... First of all, there's no noticeable scent while using. I just sniffed the product and there's no scent whatsoever. Secondly, I do not own the full size product. I have a deluxe sample. From the website, it looks like the same packaging but in a smaller version. I will only talk about the sample product. With that said, it's well-made and sturdy. It's made out of plastic. The top is also sturdy. I can feel a tight seal when I open and close. I cannot see it open or break unless you are rough with the packaging. For this reason, it's travel-friendly. It's easy to throw in your purse, bag, and even your pocket. It's also easy to hold with one hand. Third, the consistency is gel-like and medium. It's not too thick that it's hard to absorb into the skin. It's also not too thin that it runs while using. It's a good consistency. With that said, it's easy to use. I used it as a morning moisturizer. After cleansing, I used it as a last step before the sunscreen. As I squeeze the product out of the tube, it looks more like a cream than a gel. Once I use the product, it's more a gel than a cream. It's light-weight, not greasy, not sticky, and it has a cooling sensation. It feels cool to the touch not the tingling sensation. I'm not a big fan of tingling. It quickly absorbs and leaves a nice, smooth texture. Lastly, it lasts all day without reapplying. For a gel-like moisturizer, I was impressed. I think it's good for normal to oily skin. It's also good for dry skin individuals but I don't know if it will be moisturizing all year long. It might be too light for the dry, winter weather. You might need something stronger or at least I know I will. With hydration, fine and thick lines lessen with usage. You just need to be consistent with moisturizing. I am glad I got this product. I have never heard of this brand. I learned a new brand and interested to try other products.
