Noticed overnight results from this. My skin was glowier and my fine lines had reduced so much by the morning. I have sensitive and acne-prone skin but this product has never triggered it. I have been using it for two years now and will continue to!

It gives radiance, glow, evens out my skin texture, and most importantly is malassezia safe. Post-acne dark spots also healed a lot quicker. Been using it since 2019 in my mid-20s and planning on using it forever. It's truly a HG for me. Please don't make any unnecessary reformulations on this one.
