Review: The perfect balance of hydration and glow! - This product is incredible — exactly what I was looking for in a daily moisturizer and essence in one. The texture is silky and lightweight, yet it gives my skin deep, lasting hydration without feeling greasy or heavy. It layers beautifully under makeup and keeps my skin looking fresh and dewy all day. I love that it’s clean, vegan, and cruelty-free — you can really tell the formula was made with care. My skin feels smoother, calmer, and more balanced since I started using it. It’s become a non-negotiable step in my skincare routine. Highly recommend for anyone wanting that healthy, lit-from-within glow!
Review: Go for it! It’s worth it! - This is my favorite, I absolutely love it. I apply as my first step before makeup and it preps my skin so nicely. Sometimes I’ll even mix a few drops into my foundation or bronzing drops for a more natural, “no-makeup” makeup look. I also apply at night after cleansing, before Ilia’s barrier repair cream. (LOVE Ilia skincare products but beware some of their makeup is not as clean as they claim it to be!) It’s a wonderful milky consistency that you just gently pat all over your face and neck, and it feels lovely! The ingredients are clean, non-toxic, no fragrance… so soothing for the skin. This wasn’t my first time buying it and it won’t be my last. I know there are some other milk toner/moisturizers on the market for much cheaper but I genuinely love this one too much to switch it up!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent lightweight moisturizer
*by M***N on May 8, 2024*

A non-greasy lightweight moisturizer. Works perfectly as a base under Ilia’s tint serum. As moisturizing as the serum is, I always felt I needed a little more moisture than the serum alone but every other moisturizer I tried was too thick, oily, or sticky to use with it. This works great and allows smooth application of the serum without added wetness. This moisturizer also is a nice comfortable layer at bedtime and doesn’t clog my pores (my skin is combination and acne prone). The moisturizer has an extremely faint, lovely clean scent which doesn’t linger. Not perfumey at all- I’m highly allergic to most scents. Pricey but a little goes a long way so it’ll last a long time. I tried a travel bottle for a couple of days and ended up purchasing the full size and stashed the travel one away for my next trip.
