-feels a bit greasy on the skin
-dries tacky

-packaging: cute, plastic dropper bottle. I like that the dropper reaches the bottom of the bottle so you can use every last bit of the serum.
-experience: Makes the skin appear more radiant. It's much thicker compared to the other serums from this brand. I think this is a gentle bha for sensitive skin. It don't think improved my acne much if you're looking for drastic results. 
-price: decent

-dries slowly and sticky
-smells a bit strange
-no noticeable benefits on brightening or soothing


-Very moisturising, hydrating and thick 
-mostly sensitive skin-friendly unless you get irritated by the papaya fruit extract or hyaluronic acid (there's 7 kinds). It doesn't seem to irritate my skin.

It stops working after 3 months. I barely finished the bottle after those 3 months so I don&#39;t think it&#39;s worth it for the short shelf life. It also comes out as an oil and I don&#39;t like the feeling of oil on my face. The retinol also smells a bit funky. It would irritate my eyes even when I don&#39;t apply it close to them, just it being on my cheeks seems to trigger the irritation.

It initially gives a glow to the face and is good for retinol beginners. It doesn&#39;t overly irritate the skin given its low retinol percentage. It just makes it a bit sensitive. Good for its price.

-hella greasy 😬 and makes you look oily
-takes a long time to absorb

-I found this beneficial for adding a bit more moisture to my skin. I use it as a toner.
-didn't sting my sensitive skin at all 🥳
-lightweight

-tacky texture
-can feel suffocating on oily skin types


-fungal-acne safe

-It acts as a both a toner and a moisturiser. The texture can be described as a milky, lightweight, non-sticky liquid. It leaves behind a thin, glowy layer on the skin. Personally, I disagree with its usage as a stand alone moisturiser as it's not occlusive enough

-it has moisturising and soothing benefits and it didn't seem to irritate my skin even on days when I had dry patches. The bottle describes to use it as the first step of your routine so that's how I've been using it.
