TasTheStuff review for Noble Rot Lifting Essence

The first thing that caught my attention about this product was the packaging—it looked aesthetically beautiful. I had never heard of the brand before, but after seeing this, I immediately went to their profile to see what else they offered. This brand gives me a nostalgic vibe, reminding me specifically of Winnie the Pooh. I've always loved Pooh, so it's no surprise that I was drawn to the aesthetics this brand carries. I was delighted when Picky chose me to test this product. I finally got the chance to try it, only to find out that I was one of the unlucky ones to receive a batch that expires on 08/28/2024. Normally, I would toss it without testing, and Picky did mention I wasn’t obligated to review it. However, I still wanted to share my thoughts on what might have been a great product if not for the expiration date. From what I’ve experienced in the few days I tried this (before it expires), I came to appreciate the formula and simplicity of this product. Here’s what I observed that made me like it—and would continue using if it weren’t about to expire: 🍇 This product is made with 82.4% grapefruit ferment extract—a high concentration that ensures you get the benefits. This also shows me that the company doesn’t compromise on ingredients. 🍇 It contains adenosine, which is great for its anti-wrinkle properties, making it perfect for those looking to prevent signs of aging. 🍇 It also includes sodium hyaluronate, an excellent ingredient for hydration. 🍇 Upon application, I noticed there was absolutely no scent or fragrance. Usually, when brands advertise “fragrance-free,” there’s still a slight detectable scent, but this one is truly fragrance-free. 🍇 The formula contains no essential oils or other oils, making it safe for sensitive skin types. However, I’d still recommend patch testing to ensure you’re not allergic to any other ingredients. A pro is that there are only 16 ingredients in this product, so it’s not a complicated or complex formula. 🍇 A bonus is that the bottle is made from recycled plastic, which is great for the planet. Overall, I’d give this a 4/5—it’s a great product, but due to the expiration date, I’d have to deduct it to a 3/5 because I can’t continue using it.
