I did notice better brightening effects in Show more
Excellent product created for mature, dry, sensitive skin. Reduces redness over time and slowly increases brightness. Ceramides help in barrier repair.
If prone to acne, the peanut oil in this may contribute to break outs.

no more breakouts?
i honestly don't know what to make of this product because i used it in 2021 for about.. 6 months?? i was very generous since it was a small bottle. back then, i had extreme hormonal acne and a new pimple would emerge every day and i absolutely hated it. this toner lowkey lived up to the hype, but i wish packaging was better because the bottle did leak when received. they should Show more
I’ve been using this product for about a month, my acne is hormonal and I also have fungal acne issues. This product makes my GIANT pimples less irritated and go away in 2 days rather than their usual week-week and a half. Perfect for my combination sensitive skin!
