The texture of this emulsion is not as thick as its older version - Micro Performance.

Beauty advisors at the counter advised me to use facial cotton when applying this, but I was just too lazy to do so.

If you use your hands, you will need less than what you need when you use facial cotton.

This emulsion is relatively thicker than other brands that I've tried. So for beginners, start with pumping a little at a time to avoid ending up an sticky and oily face after application.
