I was a bit nervous at first when I used the product as it was a bit of a struggle to get the perfect ratio of the two products when combining the oil and lotion. It did start off quite oily and my makeup would not stay on, but after some practice I finally got the ratio right and the results were very good and my skin was feeling supple, moisturized and not as oily as before. This product is great but not for novice skin care users. The packaging also was not practical as when I travelled it would leak. A pump bottle would be better, that way the user could also get the ratio correct.
