SKIN1004 - theskinilivein review for Madagascar Centella Tone Brightening Capsule Ampoule

I received this product for free from Picky and SKIN1004 in exchange for my honest review. Claims: Brightening, soothing, hydrating, and moisturizing. Container: Transparent slick dropper bottle (100 mL) Color: Transparent with white beads in suspension. Texture: Thick serum Scent: None Key ingredients: • 77% centella asiatica extract - Soothing • Glycerin - Moisturizing • Niacinamide - Pore care, brightening • Tranexamic acid - Brightening • Madecassoside - Brightening • Panthenol - Skin barrier support • Arginine - Anti-aging, overall skin health • Vitamin C in the form of 3-O-Ethyl-ascorbic acid - Brightening • Lactobacillus ferment - Overall skin health How I use it: In the morning, I apply the equivalent of 4-5 drops of product on my forehead, right cheek, left cheek, nose, and chin and gently rub all over my face until fully absorbed. Verdict: • What I liked about this product: I tried this ampoule after reviewing the toner from the same SKIN1004 line, which I really liked. This product also has a simple yet elegant packaging. I was very interested in the tranexamic acid contained in this product for skin brightening because I wanted to consider it as an alternative to vitamin C as it is more stable and does not oxidize as quickly. The rest of the ingredients list of this ampoule is also impressive as they target many of my other skin concerns such as pore care, soothing, and hydration. The bottle comes with a dropper that is useful to dispense the amount you need, in my case 4-5 drops for my entire face. I was very interested in the encapsulation technology of the MadeWhite beads in this ampoule, as I had never seen in it skincare products and thought it was very innovative. The texture of the ampoule is like a thick serum and it feels very hydrating and soothing after application. This product did not irritate my skin after consistent use for 3 weeks in the morning, after which some acne marks on my chin and cheeks faded away, my skin felt less oily, my pores looked less noticeable, and my skin tone seemed brighter and more even. It also comes in a generous 100 mL format, which will last me a long time.
