What the Reviewers Are Saying:
"Maybe it's the placebo effect, but I swear my face looks better. It's got a nice glow. Not an oily glow but just a tighter, brighter look. I can't say I've ever experienced that in a lotion before. Besides that, it's been very subtle on my face. I'm always worried about adding products because my skin breaks out. Or it gets oily or super dry. Regardless, I will break out typically. I haven't had one reaction yet, and that's a huge relief. I couldn't be happier with this purchase." —Brianm83

A lot goes a long way…would highly recommend to someone on the go who wants to have healthy skin (and wants the process simplified)." — Matt
