I recently tried this serum. Here is what's good and potentially not so good about their vitamin C serum, keeping in mind that product formulations may change over time: What's Good: Stable Vitamin C: La Roche-Posay typically uses L-ascorbic acid, a stable form of vitamin C known for its effectiveness in brightening skin and reducing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. Packaging: Their products often come in opaque, airtight containers, which helps protect the vitamin C from light and air exposure, preserving its efficacy. Suitable for Sensitive Skin: La Roche-Posay products are designed with sensitive skin in mind. They often exclude common irritants like fragrance and parabens, making them suitable for those with skin sensitivities. Texture: The serum texture is often lightweight and non-greasy, making it suitable for various skin types. High-Quality Ingredients: La Roche-Posay tends to use high-quality ingredients and goes through rigorous testing to ensure safety and efficacy

COSRX BLEMISH SERUM REVIEW Hi hi, I'm Grizz 💓 beauty enthusiast. Today I want to review COSRX Blemish Spot Clearing Serum. Maybe there are still many people who don't know about this one. Soo i'll review it and mention the features Main ingredients ❤️ 85,6% Propolis Extract 🤍 4% Niacinamide ❣️ CentellAC-RX Complex Packaging Love the cosrx packaging, always simple and aesthetic. This serum packed with frosted glass and the dropper is nice too Texture & scents The texture is really lovely, it's watery and absorb fast. Not sticky too!! Feel lightweight i can use it even in the morning. I can't smell any scent come from this serum Thought the main function of this serum is to lighten blemishes of course. First of all, i fell in love with the texture. It's feel very very comfortable. It's feels hydrating even though it's light. I have so many PIE and it's takes long time to fade. For this kinda serum you need to consistently use it to see the result. I think it will take 1 month to see results and I haven't used it for 1 month. So I will give the update to you guys 4.5/5 🌟 Price : $27.00/40 ml(Cosrx Global Website) GRAB YOURS GUYS!! *[PR] thank you so much @frmadcos @madforcos @cosrx

ISNTREE C-Niacin Toning Ampoule A nourishing ampoule containing Hippophae Rhamnoides fruit extract helps to improve skin tone and give a vital look to the skin. Contains 2% of niacinamide for brightening. Alcohol, Fragrance, Essential oil free ✔️ Rate: 5/5 Price: Php840 for 50ml Texture: Liquid syrupy texture My experience: I would always use a vitamin c serum every morning for my face but I was in the process of transitioning my products to be alcohol free, fragrance free and essential oil free so I was looking for a gentle vitamin c alternative, and I discovered this product so I gave it a try. It does its job well. It has lots of antioxidants that goes well with any sunscreen. The only downside was that it was too gentle and not as potent as pure vitamin c but it does brighten my dull skin tone. Recommend for: All skin types especially for those who have sensitive skin Will I repurchase? Definitely!

🌾 A creamy organic sunscreen containing 30% rice extract and grain fermented extracts that provide moisture and nourishment to the skin as the brand claims. SPF- and PA-tested. 📦 Packaging. In a screw cap tube similar to most toothpaste packaging. Easily dispensed. Note: Packaging could get smeary with residue of the product in hands as you replace the cap. 🧴 Key Ingredients & Benefits. Rice & grain fermented extracts that are rich in vitamins B, C, E, amino acids, and minerals to help moisturize dry skin. 💧Form & Fragrance. White cream with moderate consistency, without fragrance but with a mild scent. (Tested in a tropical, hot, humid region) 🙋🏽 Experience. Many have this as their HG. First tried this when I asked for some from my sibling who truly likes and repurchases this product. My initial impression was that since it has rice ingredient in it, it would feel or leave a powdery effect because that’s how rice grains are to touch. With actual use, this is rather the opposite, it’s moist. Does not leave white cast, does not clump, does not sting the eyes, isn’t sweatproof or waterproof, a moisturizing sunscreen. 💲 Price. ₱598 ($10.80~) per 50mL tube in Lazada PH. Buy during double day or pay day sales for discounted price or rebates. (Not a sponsored post. Bought it from my personal pocket.)

Description🔍 “Beauty Of Joseon Dynasty Cream is a moisturizing and nourishing cream providing powerful moisture barrier that does not dry out” 🔬 Key ingredients 🧪 * Rice bran water 29% * Ginseng root water 5% * Glycerin 13% * Squalane 2% * Niacinamide 2% 🧴Packaging🧴 50 ml glass jar~ The design is a mix between traditional and modern look, and I love it ! 😍✨ (It’s a renewed packaging, and I like the old one even more 👀 cuz it really gives Joseon vibesss 😩✋🏻💫) 💦 Texture 💦 Very creamy texture (I found it quite close to a gel type moisturizer~) ✨Scent✨ No scent 🍥MY experience🍥 When the weather was still hot/humid, and as the cream has a rich texture I decide to only use it in my night routine, because I knew it would be quite tacky for my skin if I use it in the morning. But since the weather started to get colder, this cream was a must to provide a deep hydration to my skin for the entire day~ The cream slides very easily on my skin, but the first times I’ve used it I noticed that it takes time to be absorbed and leaves a sticky effect for some minutes. After my skin absorbs it, it leaves the skin with a healthy glow~ It’s a very nourishing cream (it can even be considered as a sleeping mask in my opinion) that keeps my skin moisturized for a long time ! I would say that it’s a great moisturizer for winter (I don’t think I can use it in very hot summer/humid weather) And that it would suits people with dry skin really well~ I really love this cream! I added it to my “must have for winter” list 🌝✨ PROS ⚪️ Provide deep and long hydration ⚪️ Leaves a heathy glow on the skin ⚪️ Doesn’t clogs pores

I recently tried the Caudalie Vinoperfect Dark Spot Serum, and here's my honest review with both the good and the not-so-great aspects: The Good: Gentle on Skin: One of the standout qualities of this serum is its gentle formulation. It didn't cause any irritation or redness on my sensitive skin, making it suitable for a wide range of skin types. Pleasant Scent: The serum has a pleasant, subtle scent that makes it a pleasure to apply. It doesn't overpower your senses, which is a plus for those who are sensitive to fragrance. Quick Absorption: I appreciated how quickly the serum absorbed into my skin. It didn't leave a greasy or sticky feeling, making it suitable for use under makeup or as part of a nighttime skincare routine. Brightening Effect: Over time, I did notice a slight improvement in the overall brightness of my skin. Some minor dark spots did appear to fade with consistent use.
