i use this product in the evening alongside the LAB AC control toner and it makes my skin feel super soft and moisturised! it does not sting and is very gentle on the skin. it spreads well and has a thin consistency, normal for an emulsion. the packaging is beautiful. i use 2-3 pumps for my whole face (it does not pump out a lot at a time, so that is less than it sounds). i have noticed my skin condition slowly improving since i started using this a few weeks ago.
