I’m serious when I say if you don’t use any k skincare.. you HAVE to try this one. It’s an all in one product and targets many concerns and issues in one go. At least for me. I have rosacea and very dry, sensitive skin and this soothes my skin like no other!! It reduces redness.. helped to get rid of my acne. hydrates my skin and makes my skin tone even in better texture.
I’ve been using this on and off for about 2 years now to help with my sensitive, acne prone skin. Not only does it help heal my skin barrier, it reinforces it, calms down my redness, and helps to heal my breakouts faster. I’ve already gone through 3 bottles. All you need is a couple of drops a day, or even to mix it with your moisturizer, and you’re good!

Kept getting bumps on corner of jaw, not as impactful as cicaful calming gel though both caused bumps for me.
