- Absorbs slowly, can leave your face tacky for a little while as it dries down
- Pilled previous skincare products if you apply it too soon

- Gently fruity, warm scent
- Smooth, more runny oil texture but not greasy
- Leaves a dewy glow on your skin if used as last step
- Brightened and evened my skin tone over the course of using it for 3 months
- Dropper is glass (recyclable) and dispenses a reasonable amount of product, easy to use

- No brightening or impact on hyperpigmentation

- Very light mint scent from essential oils (no artificial fragrance) that didn't irritate my sensitive, fragrance-allergic skin
- Light yellow liquid with serum consistency; rubs into lather within a few seconds
- Feels gentle on skin during application and washes off easily
- Only need 2-3 pumps for entire face, product goes a long way
- Got rid of my clogged pores/comedones on cheeks within 2 weeks when other salicylic acid products weren't working
- Cute packaging and easy to use pump

- Strong sulfur scent that reappears every time you layer another product on top of treated areas (maybe activated because it was moved?)
- Stings a little on some acne
- No impact on hyperpigmentation after 1 month of use

- Cute, pink powder that settles on the bottom of the jar
- Easy to absorb onto Q-tip and dab over acne; I only need to use 2 Q-tips for my problem areas
- Works well if applied as first step in skincare routine after cleansing/washing; cleared my large whiteheads within 2 weeks when used in PM routine
- Product goes a long way if you use it on Q-tips daily, even though the bottle is small
- No shaking required for product to work

- No noticeable difference in skin or moisture barrier after using for 1 month in PM routine; about the same if not less impact than using only drugstore moisturizer without serums in routine
- No impact on redness or irritation


- No scent
- White, translucent cream with soft, light texture; easy to spread across face
- Absorbs within seconds into skin
- Doesn't feel tacky or greasy after application
- Only need 2-3 pumps for entire face and neck
- Bottle is easy to dispense product and glass is recyclable; packaging is super cute lavender shade

- Takes some work to absorb into skin, need to rub it in for a while
- Tube can be hard to squeeze at the end since it takes in air each time you "unsqueeze"; don't know how much product is left because the material is opaque
- Granted a little bit of depuffing after each use, except puffiness returned in the afternoon
- No brightening effects or impact on fine lines

- No scent
- White cream with medium consistency, light and easy to spread into skin
- Leaves no residue and no tackiness after application
