Tirtir SOS Serum 27 ingredients
I have no idea what the hype is. Sure the ingredients sound fine but it’s anything but hydrating and pretty sure it broke my skin barrier or maybe it doesn’t pair well with basic ingredients and trust I know it has copper peptides so I know what not to pair it with. Still my face after a week felt on fire… still can’t find the right routine because I read and fall for fads and “reviews”. if you Show more
Been using around 3 weeks. Feels hydrating and leaves skin glowy and less tight after use. I haven’t noticed overall increased skin hydration when not using but maybe I haven’t used it long enough yet.
