Centella Unscented Serum
🌿Centella Unscented Serum🌿
✨✨✨✨✨
First off, the texture deserves some praise bc although it's slightly viscous, it's light, watery and easy to spread. It goes on smoothly and doesn't leave a sticky feel. A single pump is enough for the entire face.
The winning points are its ingredients. It contains niacinamide (2%), ceramides, peptides, madecassic acid, and centella asiatica extract (49%). So if you're into calming skincare or have a damaged barrier, this one would suit your skin type.
Here are some observations I made after a week of usage (before I used the recovery cream):
Pros:
1. The serum is perfect to wear even in the daytime. It doesn't leave the face oily or sticky. Plus absorption is fast.
2. Perfect for hydration. I use this at night (paired with cosrx balancium cream) to combat dryness caused by the AC, and my skin felt a lot more plump compared to using the balancium cream alone.
3. Oiliness during the daytime is more controlled when using this (used w/ celeteque's hydration moisturizer)
4. Skin texture improved. It feels smoother and a bit plumper.
Cons:
1. It didn't do much for lightening the severe hyperpigmentation from a pimple I got, just very minimally. But this didn't really bother me?
✨✨✨✨✨
When used with the unscented recovery cream:
My skin became way softer and smoother. But what I didn't expect (nor understand) was smaller pores after I started using the cream day and night (w/o the serum).
Pairing the serum with the cream maximized that effect.
✨✨✨✨✨
Overall, it's a pretty no-fuss serum. I'd recommend it to pretty much anyone because it's rly versatile regardless of weather and time of the day. Its hydration properties are pretty great too. I'd especially recommend it to anyone with a damaged skin barrier because the ingredients, especially the centella extract, are really beneficial. I didn't mind that it didn't lighten my pimple mark significantly, I just want extra hydration and a healthier skin barrier, but it seemed to go beyond that since my skin texture improved.
Hands down a 5/5 for me.
