BANOBAGI - Sharonspendstoomuch review for Alpha Radiance Serum

I purchased this serum from 0.8l for a very discounted price in exchange for my honest review. This is a hydrating and brightening serum featuring alpha-arbutin (10x stronger than beta-arbutin) that gives skin a natural radiant glow. It comes in an opaque 30ml white bottle with dropper and is available on Amazon for $21. The brand claims that this serum will reduce dark spots, uneven skin tone, while retaining skin’s moisture retention levels & improve overall skin clarity within 2 weeks. Key Ingredients: 🔸 Glacial Water (49.1%) 🔸 Glycerin 🔸 20,000ppm Alpha-arbutin (2%) 🔸 20,000ppm Niacinamide (2%) 🔸 Hyaluronic Acid My Experience: I have used this brand’s Milk Thistle range and really liked it, so wanted to try this serum. The brand was developed by Dermatologists and all products are hypoallergenic. I’ve been using this serum 2x daily for about 10 days. After cleansing & toning, I apply 3-4 drops while my skin is still damp from the toner. (It is best to apply serums containing Hyaluronic acid on wet/damp skin). The serum has a slightly viscous gel-like texture with no fragrance. It absorbs into the skin quickly without stickiness. My skin feels soft and smooth after applying, and it seems to help reduce any redness I’m experiencing. So far, my skin feels more supple, plumped and hydrated, plus skin looks brighter and more even toned. I haven’t experienced any changes in dark spots so far, but skin does look clearer and healthier looking after less than 2 weeks use. I like how it layers well with my other skincare products and I plan to keep using it to measure longer term results. This is great for all skin types including sensitive & it has a short ingredient list so possible irritation is limited.
