So i was worried at first because it looked really sticky from the dropper because it was pulling strings so it looked very sticky. Upon application however, it wasn't thick or sticky at all. It spread really well. I only needed 4 small drops for the entire bottom half of my face and neck so it spreads very well. It doesn't feel wasteful with a non spreadable liquid. It doesn't burn or anything and only time will tell but so far, it doesn't cause any inflammation and it does feel pretty soothing.
