I got a mini version of this in a gift with purchase, so it is not necessarily best suited for my skin. It is designed for people with sensitive skin, to soothe the irritants caused my chemicals and environmental stressors. It is also supposed to provide hydration. Overall its hard to evaluate the effectiveness of this product since it is not suited to my skins needs, but I can evaluate the products quality. It is a lightweight lotion that does feel like it is soothing to your skin (this can likely be attributed to the oat extract that is supposed to provide antioxidants and calm your skin) . I have to say though that I absolutely cannot stand the smell! I could even still smell it long after it soaked in, and even after I put my make-up on!
