🍊MY EXPERIENCE~
Tested on my oily/resilient skin with uneven tone, whiteheads on chin and blackheads on nose area, wide pores, and minimal acne. I live in tropical country (PH 🇵🇭) with 32°-40° heat index.
📌 First time applying it, my skin feels super refreshed. I noticed it has a semi-matte finish at first.
📌 The citrus scent when you pour out the product, not much of a fan of it. But it fades out soon and is not that noticable eventually.
📌 No particular issues with the effects of the ingredients on my skin. (This 10 Vitamin ingredient is 💯)
📌 It washes off easily, doesn't clog my pores.
📌 It has slight tone-up effect that can be discouraging for darker shades of skin. But blend out evenly (with lots of effort), then should be good. MY TIP: Try putting small drops on your finger (not the two finger method), so you can fairly blend it out.
📌 They claim to be reef-safe, but I've read about reef-safe products in sunscreens and judging from the ingredient (titanium dioxide), I'm believing that its not. Better to just use indoors. TD ingredient also causes the tone-up effect.
📌 As I'm spreading/layering the product, some of it clumps on my skin. (Still, blend 3x)
📌 So far, doesn't melt on my skin.
What I like most:
✅ slight matte finish
✅ UV protection
✅ 10 types of vitamin 🥺
✅ "HYAL". HYdrating. Periodt.
