parasootamol review for Mentholatum Melano CC Intensive Anti-Spot Essence

◾Product details and claims: The product features the most active form of Vit. C which is L-ascorbic acid and Vit. E which could help in stabilizing the former. It boasts with its unique packaging which protects the Vit. C inside against the risk of oxidation. No matter how hard you squeeze, the product will only dispense one drop at a time. This makes sure that no air nor light will affect the remaining product. It can also be applied to the whole face, sk don't be fooled with its name. ◾Price: It's quite pricey for its size (20ml) for 690 PHP or $14.26. But I guess you're paying for the packaging 🤷 ◾Texture: It seems to be oily at first, but it really isn't. When spread evenly, it is easily absorbed and doesn't leave an oily/tacky feeling. ◾Experience: I purchased this last May 4, 2020, can you imagine how long it has been for an L-ascorbic acid? Yet the color's still the same since the first time I opened it. This just proves how essential the packaging is. I've been using it on and off before on my face because everytime I apply it on my face, my pimples seem to be aggravated. I don't want to accept the fact that it irritates me before because of its price, that's why I really gave it a plenty of chance. But it really never worked, I don't know if it's because of its strong fragrance or the L-ascorbic itself. But recently I've watched Dr Shereene Idriss take on Vit. C in skincare. She said that L-ascorbic acid may be not the best choice for acne-prone people like me 🥲 So I've repurposed it on my body instead. Worked wonders on my hyperpigmentation due to eczema and insect bites. I've been using it on and off before on my face because everytime I apply it on my face, my pimples seem to be aggravated.
