What has my experience with the product been like?
I've had several samples of this and it just doesn't do anything for the redness I constantly complain of. I had such high hopes because people seem to really like it and it feels nice going on but my skin remains red. Due to its high price point I will not be purchasing it just because it feels nice.

Please let me know if you have any comments or questions.
