The texture of this product is great! It is amazingly soft and it most definitely is a mousse. I liked the packaging too. I found that this product dries to a slight powder, obviously creating a matte-effect. It made my skin look and feel very dry- something that I don't quite like. Perhaps it works with other skin-types, but not for mine. However, I do not believe that this is a rip off as you are paying under R100.
