What is the texture like?
This has a watery texture.
Is this scented?
This has a yeasty scent to it.
What has my experience with the product been like?
This feels really nice and leaves my skin feeling silky. That said, I just feel like paying in the hundreds for products that have antioxidants and make my skin feel nice is kind of frivolous - I understand if the product did something truly remarkable - for instance, completely took all my redness away (or reduced it significantly) or noticeably eliminated clogged pores and sebaceous filaments I'd be like "yes this is worth it" but I can buy a product at a price point I'm more comfortable with (just about $30 - $50) and get a product that, while yes may not be loaded with luxury ingredients, will overall make my skin feel and look the same and have similar active ingredients.
