Skin type: Combi Acne Prone
I like this booster but not adore it. It can be combined with almost anything and does the job alright. It contains Matrixyl 3000 which is nice and has a compact ingredient list. However, in general I would choose The Ordinary Buffet over this one since it works better IMO.
