Soul Apothecary Radiance Boost Serum 15 ingredients
I have a combination skin type (oily t-zone, normal for the rest).
I use this serum twice a day daily. It does help in fading my PIH scars but it takes at least 2 weeks for it to be slightly noticeable. I guess using this in combination with daily exfoliation with a gentle cleanser helps in speeding up this process. But at this rate, it will take more than a month and a half for those scars to Show more
I have oily-acne prone skin that is prone to clogness.
I have emptied two bottles of this but I am not repurchasing it anymore. Honestly, I only got a second bottle because I was waiting for it to work... and it didn't really
It has a simple ingredient list and has key ingredients at the very top. BUT it ended up being a bit irritating on the skin. It also has yeast ferment as an ingredient Show more
