i like that it’s combination of different acids, will rebuy
SKIN1004 Madagascar Centella Tone Brightening Capsule Ampoule 26 ingredients
after only a week of using this, lots of small bumps on my forehead appeared; closed comedones or malassezia. so i stopped using it and began washing my face with nizoral anti-dandruff treatment, using a 2% bha exfoliant and a gentle protease daily exfoliant. within 5 days i managed to get rid of 95% of the bumps on my forehead. it has now been 2 weeks and i still have those few bumps, which don’t Show more
Ok so I’ve been using this for six weeks now. It has not caused me to break out even though I have reactive and sensitive skin. Post blemish marks are fading slowly. The formula is nice - absorbs well and feels hydrating. I think it’s good value for money and I’m going to continue using it
