Never gave me the miracle results I've seen all over TikTok but served me well for the 3+ years I was on this.

Been on this for 4 years. It does not perform miracles but it does keep your skin youthful to some extent sans procedures. Worked on reducing inflammation and acne but dried my skin out, even after a full year of consistent use. With this, sunscreen is non-negotiable.
