It’s a good moisturizing serum. Keeps moisture lock and does have a bit of calming properties. Basic purpose. Nothing fancy.

Good, but caused irritation and itchiness.
It's good to reduce the pores, made my skin soft and supple, also reduced dullness. But I'm concerned about one thing, it has caused irritation on my skin, mainly near my eyebrows, tiny little bumps have developed on my forehead, caused redness and extremely itchy feeling.
