I think this is a beautifully formulated acne-prone safe Peptide serum. Although it can sometimes be a bit tacky to use with different products, it gives a lovely glow.
What I like:
- Matrixyl 3000
- Argireline
- Synth6
- Blend of amino acids
- No acne prone ingredients (sodium chloride isn't that bad)
What I dislike:
- Tackiness
- Castor Oil
I have a 25yr old acne prone skin Show more
I started to add this serum to my routine when I turned 29 and wanted to incorporate peptides to my skincare game. I have an oily skin and lives in the tropics. I kept trying to use it but saw no benefits after almost 6 months. It just makes my skin dewy and greasy.

I love this product. I need to use it more frequently. I love how it feels when I apply it. It’s a red “oil”, but easily blends into the skin.
It definitely adds glow and brightness to my skin.
I have yet to come across a product similar to this by other brands.
i like this alot buti just have no idea what it does lmao. i use it for feet, hands and dry areas after a scrub. It softens and feels nice (smells a bit coppery) but i can do just as well without it so meh. :3 i dolike it tho!
