Incredible for this 40 year old. It's tingly and dies sting a touch but not too bad and boy it makes your texture reduce, hyperpigmentation is reduced, pores are unclogged and reduced. Best my skin has ever looked.

Great for sensitive skin and acne. The formula is very calming and hydrating, while also being very good at exfoliating. Would recommend over Paula's Choice any day.
