Selected for this trial. Have not used serums from this brand but have heard good things about it. Love the purple glass container. The serum itself was thicker than other serum type products I have used before. Did have a slight scent, kind of chemically scent? Probably due to the ingredients?
Used this almost every day since I received it . Results so far were not what I was expecting. I rarely have a reaction to products I use. My skin condition prior to using this was decent. Clear, slightly oily. Since using this I developed what seems to me like closed pores/bumps all over my forehead. Not just I know it's there but clearly visible. The only conclusion I came to was that it was this product. This is the only change in my skincare routine since July.
I thought it might be one of those skin break outs, bringing up the stuff beneath the surface. However, it hasn't improved. I want to continue to give it a chance but am unsure at this point. Ultimately, I don't think it is a skincare item for me.
I was really excited about trying this product as it claimed to help hydrate the skin and reduce dark spots - both things I've noticed more since turning 40!
The packaging and bottle are nice and simple, the dropper comes separately in the box. I found that the dropper wasn't the easiest to use and the amount of product that it dispensed varied each time.
The serum itself was a great smooth, non oily texture and it felt light on the skin and absorbed easily.
After the first few days of using the product I noticed that my skin was looking slightly red, I skipped the product for a day and the redness went away and it also didn't return when I started using it again. I felt that my skin felt slightly more hydrated than when using moisturizer alone but I didn't notice any change to the dark spots.
Overall the benefits weren't enough for me to rate this product highly.
Tips: Don't rely on the dropper to dispense a consistent amount of product
