This is truly a well balanced serum. It’s hydrating, soothing, barrier strengthening, and exfoliating. Gentle, but effective! It’s quite viscous and smells like oat. Easy to use and layer, and dries to a dewy finish.
It contains PHA in the form of 5% lactobionic acid, a next generation AHA that exfoliates dead skin cells but is more gentle than AHA. It also moisturises and strengthens the skin barrier. Also contains oat milk, snow mushroom extract and beta glucan to hydrate, soothe and strengthen the skin barrier. Plus 4 seed butters to nourish and soften the skin. 😌
I’ve tried this on it’s own, paired with Differin and also with BHA and I have to say I really like it. It works well with anything! It really plumps and strengthens my skin. My skin looks so glowy the next day. And it wasn’t irritating for me. Note that my skin is used to Differin & BHA already, so proceed with caution. I use it 2-3 times a week in my PM routine.
With long term use, I feel that my skin is healthier and smoother. 😌
