As a serum it was okay, it does contain aloe vera sap and hyaluronic acid, which did hydrate my skin. However, this would not have been enough for my skin in colder, Winter times; it kept up the hydration because we are in warm, sunny times when trialled.
There is no way I could use this instead of a moisteriser. I imagine only those with quite oily skin without any dehydration could use it this way.
Whilst the packaging is gorgeous, you can immediately tell this is a budget product from the strong, synthetic aloe scent they have used. For me it is very off-putting and not the refreshing smell of pure aloe.
