This is a light-weight gel moisturizer. It is very refreshing, does not leave a residue or feel heavy. It is light, but it really does moisturize my skin! I am a boy, and I like to use this after shaving. It's very calming. i noticed my redness reduce with this. I also use this in the day time as my moisturizer in the summer. I have normal skin type and it works in both seasons if i layer in the winter. if you're looking for a one step summer product, this is light enough but still moisturizing! also great for winter if you layer.
