This is a rich soothing serum ampoule that really helps my dry mature skin. It calms redness and any irritation as well as softens and plumps. Because I am older I use a full dropper of the 100ml size but I think a younger person could use less. Generally it is an evening product for me but when my skin is very sensitive I use it twice a day.

i don't know
i think this product wasn't made for me but i didn't know that when i ordered it. i wanted to use this alongside theinkeylist's retinol serum to minimize the purging but no purging ever happened, so i can't say if this serum worked or if the retinol serum was just too weak for my skin that was used to benzyl peroxide twice a day from the effaclar duo+ which i don't use anymore because it would be too harsh with retinol. all i can say is the serum feels very sticky and the dropper isn't the best, but i don't wanna give a bad review just because of that. ideally i would've gotten purito's unscented serum but they don't ship to germany through yesstyle.
