My skin LOVES this product! Overall, it made my skin texture way healthier. But most importantly, I have sensitive spots on my cheeks and around my nostrils that were kind of always there, but this serum just ... healed that up so well. No longer red or itchy, just healthy.
Only reason I swapped is because I wanted to find something that's more effective against acne (this product does somewhat reduce it), but I'm definitely coming back to this.
