Ingredients we love
Niacinamide – Also known as vitamin B3, niacinamide is a very effective skin-restoring ingredient that offers multiple benefits for ageing and acne-prone skin. Among these benefits is the ability to visibly improve the appearance of enlarged pores and uneven skin tone, diminish fine lines and dullness as well as strengthen a weakened skin barrier.
Arbutin – A fantastic antioxidant and ingredient for brightening and evening out skin-tone. It also works to inhibit hyperpigmentation from forming post-skindamage.
Allantoin – An ingredient that is gentle enough for sensitive skin and is anti-inflammatory and hydrating. It is also a powerful antioxidant and has wrinkle-smoothing and exfoliating properties.
Ingredient List – Water, Niacinamide (Vitamin B3 10%), Butylene Glycol, Arbutin (2%), Allantoin, Dipotassium Glycyrrhizate, Lindera Erythrocarpa Extract, Cornus Officinalis Fruit Extract, Geranium Thunbergii Extract, Hydroxyethylcellulose, Sodium Hyaluronate, Methylpropanediol, Laurylpyridinium Chloride, Chlorphenesin, 1,2-Hexanediol

I started using this the 1st day I got it, it’s been 5 days and I can already see a difference, I have hyperpigmentation and although I still have marks, my skin texture has improved dramatically and is much more glowy😍, this is defs worth the hype.

I absolutely love this product! When I first got this product with application it felt a bit sticky and turned a white filmy consistency as I was rubbing it in but that quickly disappeared, quick absorbing and odorless. I’ve got sensitive combo acne prone skin and to be honest the first 2 weeks I went through serious skin purging and I thought this product was making my skin worse. Long story short, well into my 3rd week my skin changed drastically, my acne marks faded, less oily skin, my skin was less textured or rather my skin was more smooth, reduced redness, less irritable. I’d recommend this to anyone struggling with sensitive acne prone skin.

I have sensitive, hyperpigmented, oily acne prone skin.
This serum is light (its like water) and absorbs quickly.
It is very gentle, I applied it every morning before my moisturiser and experienced no irritation.
I love this stuff, my skin is evening out, less oily and glowy.
A little goes a long way, so this bottle will last about 2 to 3 months.
Requires patience though, saw results after about 3months

I have dry mature skin with lots of hyperpigmentation and sun damage. This serum is starting to fade my marks and brighten my skin. I’ve been using it for 2 weeks and I can clearly see the difference in the marks on my skin. Everything is lighter and my skin tone is 100% brighter and even. I am so excited to see the daily change happening from using this amazing serum. I’m recommending this serum to all my friends as the light watery texture is so easily absorbed that I believe all skin types will be able to use it.

I purchased this serum after using Tiam Vitamin C serum and have not seen any results unfortunately but maybe it’s just me. So I have repurchased Vitamin C serum and very happy.

Love this serum. Very light, watery consistency also doesn’t have fragrance. Spreads very easy on the skin so a little goes a long way.
