Some By Mi - Ilovecindtania review for Super Matcha Pore Tightening Serum

✨ Packaging: plastic bottle with pump ✨ Texture: gel to water consistency ✨ Claim: pore tightening & controlled sebum production ✨ Key star ingredients: matcha water 93%, Natural BHA, PHA, Anti Sebum P 0.5%, Skinpore Controller 1% Before using this serum to my entire face, I did patch test for 3 days. During those 3 days, I didn’t encounter any allergy, irritation nor breakout so I proceeded using the serum to my entire face. ✨First impression I was surprised by its texture, it is very watery, lightweight, and fast absorbing on the skin. I love the texture so much, it is really formulated for oily skin. Once applied, the serum melts from gel to water. It gives soothing effect on the skin. Usually, my skin gets really oily after 2-3 hours. However, I notice that my skin is not as shiny as usual after using this serum. This contributes to the appearance of my pores, it looks slightly smaller. My skin type is super oily, so I’m kind of surprise of this amazing effect. It also helps to flattened the tiny bumps on my forehead (most likely because of the BHA in the serum). This serum has fragrance, the scent isn’t strong and still tolerable. Personally, I can tolerate fragrance in skincare so it’s fine for me. ✨Usage: I don’t use this serum everyday cause it contains exfoliating ingredients such as BHA and PHA. I use this during the day between toner and moisturizer steps followed with sunscreen ✨Pros: - The pump makes it very easy and sterile to dispense the product - Lightweight consistency, gel to water consistency suitable for oily skin - Fast absorbing on the skin - No sticky feeling - Alcohol, paraben, sulfate, silicone, and oil free. It’s non-comedogenic as well Overall , I think this serum does what it says to be. Specifically formulated for oily skin with enlarged pores. It controls my sebum production and helps with acne too
