Not much to complain about, it’s a HOLY GRAIL for a reason 🥰

Feels great on skin, a lightweight toner which absorbs very quickly on the skin.
Helps reduce whiteheads, blackheads and clogged pores after one usage.
Does not irritate skin despite the effectiveness


- Slight fragrance/ carrot smell
- Not very effective if your acne is more severe eg. cysts and nodules.
- Contains some types of oil, which could be irritating for some.

- It’s a pretty thick serum which layers well and quickly.  
- Has niacinamide and other acne fighting ingredients which helps with soothing blemishes.
- Love the bottle and pump application 

Made my eyelids sting and peel initially, not sure if my eyelids are too sensitive for chemical sunscreens

Super smooth and creamy, but absorbs very quickly unto the skin
Has zero white cast
Gives a dewy glow on the face

Can make skin tacky and sticky after application
Takes at least 2-3 months to see consistent results
Purging might occur in the earlier few weeks of using

- Helps to fight acne
- Prevents development of blind pimples 
- A little goes a long way, only need a pea-sized amount per application.

I’ve looked for countless of products to help with my blind pimples that I was constantly getting on a weekly basis, like literally EVERY pimple I was getting were red and painful blind pimples on my cheeks.

I panicked and kept trying different skincare products before finally turning to use differin. I read about the purging phase but I thought to myself, “If I don’t try this, I’m still going to  breakout every week, how much worse can it be”. 

So I went ahead and tried it. I did not breakout out of the norm, still having new pimples once a week until about week 6 on differin. I still had pimples occasionally, but they were not the blind, painful ones anymore. 

I’m currently on week 10 and I’ll continue using it in hopes of seeing more results.

Looking back, I’m glad I started off slow with the application frequency, increasing to 4-5 times a week after week 4 or so.
