When I used the Drops of Youth Essence-Lotion, I was a little surprised to see that it had a gel-like texture, in contrast to the typical watery textures of most lotions. It's still quite thin though - unlike a typical gel product, you can't really dab this on with your finger. The scent is also gorgeous, a very fresh, green and citrus scent.I love it and i bought a new one now.
