Advantages and disadvantages
According to customer reviews, Styx cosmetics are in line with their promises.By consistency, Avocado cream is more like a thick healing ointment.

For a more pronounced effect, you can do a mild massage. You can use a therapeutic ointment as a dense day base for makeup or as a repairing serum at night.
Despite the density, the cream does not clog pores, reduces the number of comedones and does not provoke the appearance of rashes.
The disadvantages of the cream, some of the buyers attribute a dense consistency. A thick texture takes longer to absorb, which may make the skin appear oily. Absorbed cream will be a good base for makeup. The characteristic grassy smell is explained by a high percentage of plant materials without aggressive preservatives and fragrances.
