✨ SCENT
• It’s fragrance-free yay!
✨ USAGE
• Apply some drops to the face using fingers.
• Precautions: Do not apply it on irritated/wounded skin. Avoid sun exposure with no protection.
✨ MY EXPERIENCE
• I have been using this serum 3x a week for about two months. I use it during my night routine at the serum step after cleansing and toning.
• Easy to apply, dries up quickly and leaves my skin feeling hydrated and really smooth.
• For anti-aging benefits, since I don’t really have wrinkles, I didn’t see many results. Don’t think it helped with blemishes either but it does make my skin feeling soft and silky after applying it.
• Didn’t break me out or caused irritation.
✔️ PROS
• Lightweight texture
• Absorbs quickly
• Good anti-aging for beginners
• Hydrating and smooth finish
• Not oily
• Suitable for sensitive skin or retinol beginners
• Affordable for Brazilian people
• Fragrance and Essential Oil Free
❌ CONS
• No drastic changes
✨ FINAL THOUGHTS
• Good anti-aging serum for those who have sensitive skin or want to start incorporating retinol into their routine. Suitable for all skin types even sensitive skin.
• This serum has the perfect finish for me, leaves my skin super silky but still hydrated.
• Overall, a nice anti-aging serum but more on the preventing side. I don’t think I will repurchase it because I wanna incorporate tretinoin into my routine. 4/5 ⭐️
