skincadenza review for Madagascar Centella Tone Brightening Capsule Ampoule

Thank you to Picky and Skin1004 for giving me this product for free in exchange for my honest review. ✨Price: Around $25 for 100 ml ✨Claims to: Improve uneven skin tone Moisturize and brighten the skin Get rid of dark spots ✨Key Ingredients: 77% Centella Asiatica Extract, MadeWhite brightening ingredient that contains Madecassoside (the little white capsules you see). 4% Niacinamide, 2% Tranexamic Acid, 3-Ethyl Ascorbic Acid, other hydrating and skin barrier repairing ingredients like Glycerin, Panthenol, Lactobacillus Ferment, etc. ✨The serum comes in a glass bottle with a dropper. It looks beautiful with the white capsules inside. It has a slightly viscous, gel like texture that I really like in serums. You can feel the beads in your hand when you dispense the product but they melt quickly as you start rubbing the serum onto your face. They don't feel harsh. I personally would have enjoyed the texture more without the capsules but I don't mind them much. There is no added colour or fragrance. It does have a nice earthy smell that reminds me of freshly bought leafy greens. I used a couple of drops of this daily, mostly once a day and sometimes twice. This will really last you a long time! I have been using this for more than 2 months and am not even half way through the bottle. Great value for money. In terms of the efficacy, I did notice that my complexion was more evened out and seemed brighter after about a month's use. I didn't feel that it was making a lot of difference in my PIH or PIE. It did help moisturize my skin though without feeling tacky. I think this will suit all skin types. Oily skin types might want to skip this in the morning during the summer. If you are looking to target specific pigmentation concerns I would not go for this but it is good for an overall brightening effect while also adding some moisture and glow to the skin. ✨
