Suits normal, combination, oily and most sensitive skin.

3. Use morning and night. Wear sunscreen during the day.

Patch test on a small area before first use. Avoid the eye area. Because this formula contains exfoliating acids, it can make skin more sensitive to the sun. Wear sunscreen daily and introduce it slowly, starting a few times a week. Stop use if irritation occurs. Contains bergamot oil.

Can I use it with a separate exfoliant?

It already contains gentle acids. If you also use a toner or serum with acids, watch for dryness and cut back if needed.

Is it heavy?

No. It is a light, silky cream that absorbs quickly.
