Avon Skin So Soft Cooling Moisturising Gel

I purchase the product on special from Avon for R27.00. For R27 you cant expect miracles. I wasnt all that impressed with the product. It states on the packaging that the product is non greasy etc. I felt really sticky after applying the lotion. On top of that, I seemed to have experienced a burning sensation on my skin afterwards.

This gel is meant to be used in summer when other lotions normally feel too oily. It is definitely very light just as promised. It absorbs super fast while you are still rubbing it in. It smells fresh but a bit too strong for my liking. The smell reminds me of cucumber a bit. My problem with this product is that it feels like it loaded with alcohol. That explains fast absorbtion but it somehow dries out the skin. I really don't see the point in using it as I still want my skin to get hydrated even in summer. The only thing I like using it for is as aftershave gel for my legs because the alcohol actually prevents any rashes. It is also good when I actually need something to stop my back for instance from getting oily in summer. Luckily it was so cheap it wasn't a huge disappointment but I wouldn't repurchase.
