First of all, Environ is a top company and very high quality. If you search on Google, you will see the research they do for their products, which are also Cruelty free, meaning they are not tested on animals. The gel is essentially a serum that is applied before moisturizer. After trying many different products, I realized that if you find something that suits you, you don't change it. It is lightweight without making the skin oily, and I feel like it has contributed greatly to taking care of my face. The price is 42 euros, but with daily use twice a day, it has lasted me comfortably for three months. If you have the budget for this gel, just get it
