This product absorbs in about 15 seconds. I usually put about 2-5 layers of it on and it still absorbs quick! It hydrated very well while still managing to reduce my oil throughout the day. It is very soothing and gentle. 

The only con I have is that it has a relatively strong green tea smell. I’m not sure if it would be the best for very dry skin.

I would recommend applying this to damp skin and using multiple layers of it. I use this as my second step in the morning because it is very refreshing.
