Figuring out how to use it and make your way around the texture is like... a puzzle. I don't have the TIME.

This is coming from a big time PKY fan as well... this product is an absolute no for me. It doesn't matter what it does I cannot get behind it.

It does indeed have weird texture which does not easily spread but my skin feels plump and healthy next morning so it's worth it.

Love this product. It is more hydrating than most cream or lotion moisturisers. Also a great base as a primer.

I have extremely oily dehydrated skin and have been trying to sort it out but nothing seemed to work until I found this. It is SO hydrating that I'm waking up still moist, but not oily, even with only a light moisturiser. It's really making a big difference for me.

Now, the texture. I love the weird textures PY comes up with. You'll notice that it's quite liquidy in the jar, but once you try to get it on your fingers, it kinda goes hard. It's a non-Newtonian fluid, which means that when you apply pressure to it, it hardens.

The trick to applying it is to get some on your fingers, wait til it goes liquid again before trying to apply it, then press into your skin and spread in one direction. If it balls up, just give it a second to go liquid again.

Test it on the back of your hand so you can see what it's doing first - if you try to rub it with your fingers too much, it balls up but if you use the back of your other hand to press and spread, it is much more cooperative.

It does stop being sticky if you give it a few minutes to set (though it will start again if you put a lot of really wet products on top). Definitely a last or second to last step.

v unique product and needs some getting used to- it has a non-Newtonian fluid type texture similar to oobleck but drizzles like honey, and you really have to pat it in for a while and it leaves your face sticky (works well as a makeup primer though). I use this after the PY essence toner and BoJ red bean water moisturizer and it locks in the moisture amazingly well for a long time. Apparently it can be mixed with other PY products if the texture is too hard to handle.
