ALIVE:LAB - glowyame review for Houttuynia cordata Hush Serum

have you ever seen a whopping 150ml-sized serum? 😱 i sure had not until i encountered this one from @alivelab_global. powered with 10% 𝙛𝙚𝙧𝙢𝙚𝙣𝙩𝙚𝙙 𝙃𝙤𝙪𝙩𝙩𝙪𝙮𝙣𝙞𝙖 𝘾𝙤𝙧𝙙𝙖𝙩𝙖 (𝙝𝙚𝙖𝙧𝙩𝙡𝙚𝙖𝙛), this serum is targeted towards acne-prone skin to treat blemishes and soothe irritated skin. 🍃𝙊𝙏𝙃𝙀𝙍 𝙄𝙉𝙂𝙍𝙀𝘿𝙄𝙀𝙉𝙏𝙎: Green tea leaf extract, Witch hazel extract, Tea tree leaf oil, Panthenol, Glycerin, Allantoin & Zinc PCA. 🍃𝙏𝙀𝙓𝙏𝙐𝙍𝙀: lightweight, watery and runny. 🍃𝙎𝘾𝙀𝙉𝙏: strong herbal smell which some people may not be a fan of, but i personally love it! despite being named as a serum, i think there’s no right or wrong way to use this product. the packaging and its watery texture resemble more of a toner, but the brand said it can also be used as a mist by replacing the cap. after some trials, i’ve concluded that i enjoy using it most as a quick DIY mask pack. 🧖🏻‍♀️ i use my Pyunkangyul’s 1/3 cotton pads and spritz the product on it. 1-2 sprays are usually enough for me but it depends on how big your targeted area is. my cheeks are where i’m most prone to redness, especially after a workout sesh. i leave the cotton pads on for about 15-20 mins before taking them off and pat the excess serum across my face. it absorbs really fast - though the initial finish can be a little sticky, it goes away quickly. my redness is instantly reduced and skin is visibly calmer. 👍🏻 i’m unable to vouch for its efficiency in treating acne as i haven’t been getting one, but i expect nothing less from a heartleaf product. 🤩 overall, this is a great, fuss-free emergency treatment product to have on days when your skin feels extra irritated or sensitive. it works exactly like what it claims and i’d recommend it for all skin types! 🙌🏻
