serum yg cukup works di kulitku yg sering banget kusam. aku pakai sekitar sebulanan dan hasilnya cukup ok ya untuk mencerahkan. kalo utk memudarkan dark spot aku rasa belum ada perubahan yg signifikan. nggak bikin kulitku makin kering. teksturnya lumayan cair jd cepet meresapnya, cuman memang baunya cukup asem gitu ya, tapi setelah di apply dan meresap hilang & gak berbau lagi kok. repurchase ?
