This product is quite thick but is absorbed very quickly and easily and leaves skin very matt with no shine at all even at the end of the day. Far better than many other moisturisers with SPF that I have used including kiehls, Anthony and Lab series in that it is totally soothing post shave, provides excellent protection from the sun (ideal if you work outdoors as I do) and leaves skin shine free and well hydrated. Cant recommend this product enough.
