What is the texture like?
The texture is quite thick and balmy, I would say it's heavy and leaves a somewhat of waxy residue on the skin.
Is it scented?
This has a sweet, citrus-y scent.
My overall experience/comments on the product:
So it wasn't until today that I realized that this can be used as a moisturizer AND a makeup remover; in fact I'm sure it would work as a lip balm and cuticle treatment as well. What's great about the product, other than its wonderful scent, is that a little bit goes a LONG WAY. Anyhow, I've been using this exclusively as a makeup remover and while I like how thoroughly it removes even stubborn makeup I don't love how thick and waxy it feels on my skin. One Love does have a makeup remover oil which I prefer for makeup removal purposes.
I plan on using this as a moisturizer and lip balm and referring back with at least a first impression and something more thorough in an empties post (unless you'd like to see it here).
Update: I used a TINY BIT today as moisturizer - I'm talking like maybe a rice grain size and my skin feels super soft like a baby's bottom but without it feeling heavy or greasy - I think the secret is to apply it over slightly damp skin as the directions tell you as it provides a better glide. I LOVE it as a lip balm too - my lips feel so soft and well-conditioned.
