Review: Go to exfoliation ✌ - The best exfoliating serum my very first and best experience loved it go for it. I hv oily skin pimple prone. However this didn't break me out in fact reduced my dark spots n pimples a lot. I am down with 2 bottles more to go. Begin by using it fortnightly or weekly once.
Review: Nothing great ! - I have oily skin with pores especially around nose chin and cheek area and I have been using this product once every night for 2 weeks now. I don’t see any change in my pores or skin. It’s like an oily layer after you apply. Not sure if I will re buy the product but the quatity sure is good. Will update after few weeks again in case there is any change in my skin texture. Update : been using it quite regularly for more than a month now. I don’t see much change.. but maybe the pore size on my nose have shrunk a bit. Will update again after a month. Update on 28th Sept _ the product is actually good. Although I have not been regular , I have stopped pricking my whiteheads and my sebaceous filaments on my chin are finally gone. I will continue to use this product l. Now understand the hype. Moving the rating to 4 stars and will come back again after 2 months. Final update: I love this product, I have been extremely irregular with the product but it’s worked on my pores and sebaceous filaments very well. It reduces my break out by 60% over night. I will continue to use it and understood finally why it’s a cult favourite for a reason. Please be patient and surely you will see the results.
