How do I start? I started using this Isntree serum when my acne (wich thankfully I no longer have) started appearing in my skin. It helped me to reduce irritation and keep my skin hydrated. Eventually I started a treatment with my dermatologist and changed my whole skincare routine. But once my skin recovered I went straight back to it for all the benefits it brought me in the past.
