If you have very sensitive skin, probably this is not for you since there are a lot of citrus oil and other form of oil in it.  I can't use it where I have fungal problem else it will just exacerbate the problem.

Packaging: The bottle is light transparent plastic.  The box that it came in has embossed pretty design on it.  There are ingredients listed in English.
Paraben free, sulfate free, alcohol free, Eu allergen free, silicone free.  Not fungal-acne safe (malassezia). 

The fungal ingredients are Helianthus Annuus (Sunflower) Seed Oil, Elaeis Guineensis (Palm) Oil, Simmondsia Chinensis (Jojoba) Seed Oil, Hippophae Rhamnoides Oil, Argania Spinosa Kernel Oil

The rest the ingredients are for hydration, emulsifier, texture, pH adjusting and preservatives. 

Aloe vera water and rooibos as antioxidants to help with wound healing and inflammation.


Texture: It is comes as dual phase with the oil and the essence.  Need to shake it before using it each time.  It does have scent of lemon.  It has slight oil that has a light film on the skin making skin looks dewy.  I only use about two drops each time.  It has lemony kind of scent.


Review: There isn't any pain in this new version of serum. I use it at night and about 3 drops.  If I use it during the day, it does make my face very oily.  The oil serum leaves a film on my face.  It doesn't get rid of my acne.  It does help to brighten the skin and reduce acne red scars.

Overall: It is a nice brightening, hydrating, anti aging serum for those that want to start on vitamin C but looking into something that you don't have to put inside the fridge. Best for dry skin that need some sort of oils and do not have fungal acne problem.

Review: I tried it for nearly a month.  This cream doesn't sting when I applied it on my sensitive skin and weak barrier skin.  Although, I do sometimes have fungal acne but this cream sure does not cause this issue.  It does help to speed out healing, sooth skin redness, hydrating but without any heavy feeling, does not cause break outs and I do think that it helps to balance out the flora on my skin with the probiotic it has.
Overall: It is a great moisturiser with probiotics for sensitive weak barrier skin type.
