Idebenone Brightening Serum

product review positives
Idebenone serum was the first one which I've tried, actually from all the serums I was offered to choose I've picked this one first because I've been reading a lot about Idebenone lately. Lots of brands are coming out with Idebenone treatments. You might find on the internet that Idebenone is a synthetic form of Coenzyme Q10. It's an organic compound that belongs to quinone "family", same as Uniquinone - known as Coenzyme Q10 or Hydroquinone. You might be surprised if people call it synthetic analogue to Coenzyme Q10 then why synthetic substance can be organic? Organic in chemistry means that it contains carbon, it doesn't necessarily mean it's natural and that's why people find it really difficult to say which sunscreen is organic or inorganic since when we use chemical and physical sunscreens terms then automatically we think about chemical and inorganic as the same while inorganic stands for Zinc Oxide and Titanium Dioxide. But back to Idebenone, can analogue form of Coenzyme Q10 be better than Coenzyme Q10? Yes, it can, the main reason is molecular weight. Our skin is quite selective, if the molecular weight of the substance or ingredient is too big then the skin surface acts a bit like a club security - if you forgot about the dress code then club security might not let you in, it works similarly with the skin - if the molecular weight is too big, the skin won't let the substance in. Idebenone has a huge use in medicine, it's used in Alzheimer's disease treatment but it has a positive meaning to your skin as well. It's an antioxidant and even if we still don't know idebenone well, we already know that it improves wrinkles and fine lines but it's recommended to be used with sunscreen for better effects. Idebenone is hidden under the name Hydroxydecyl Ubiquinone. Even if Idebenone is the main star of this serum (600ppm), Bellflower made a composition of interesting ingredients like Niacinamide (2%), Propolis Extract, Adenosine (0,04%), Sodium Hyaluronate, Panthenol and Ascorbic Acid. My skin didn't have any bad reactions, I fell in love with the texture - it's a lightweight formula, it feels a bit like oil but it's not sticky so you don't have to be worried. The bottle contains 50 ml of serum. Unfortunately, even if I didn't see anything bad, I also didn't see anything super about this serum. I had high expectations. My acne didn't get any worse but I also didn't see any change in my skin, maybe if I had more wrinkles who know, it works better on wrinkles than it works on pigmentation and dull skin.
product review negatives
Effects on my skin were very mild.
