L'Oreal Revitalift Derm Intensives 10% Pure Glycolic Acid Serum Review
I really appreciated this serum, I love that it has Ascorbyl Glucoside and Sodium Hyaluronate which are very beneficial to the skin. I also loved that it had Denatured Alcohol because it made this serum feel like an essence when I applied it to my hands. This serum is even gentle enough to use on the lips for some exfoliation Show more
