Bakuchiol Smoothing Serum
❓How to use it: Use after cleasing, can be used alone or under a moisturiser, if you are layering with other serums, use this serum last. Always follow with an SPF in the morning.
🧐 Effect: Give a soft and smooth skin after usage a couple of times.
👃Textur and smell: it is very smooth and olie texture. The smell is quite potent.
🤔 Overall review by my mum: I used this serum both in AM and PM routine. When I used it in the morning I felt my skin couldn't breath. Therefore, I decided only to use the serum in the evening. I tried a couple of time to put cream on top of the serum as you usually do with a serum but than the cream would just be a thick layer on my skin. What worked the best is toner, balance me and than a thin layer of a night mask.
💲Buy it? I was not overall a fan of the oils in the cream and hence wouldn't buy it. I prefer the Balance Me Glow Mask, which I am a huge fan of. I really like the fact that they use many natural ingredients in the serum.
