i had the Ritual, and was so excited about it, but i wanted to get the men's serum and incorporate it into my care regime and let me tell you, i use it right after the hibiscus serum and it is magic! (i dont know why it's for men, or if women can use it but they should!!!) i let a friend of mine use it when i was enticing her to the Ritual, and she fell in love with the feel, and the scent, its absolutely wonderful, is absorbed nicely, and layering it with the oil at the end before i put my sun care on makes me feel like im ready to face anything the world has to throw my way!
