### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great addition to my skin care routine
*by K***S on October 3, 2025*

I have been using this product a while before posting my review. I am a lover of bright, clear skin and adding this Serum to my routine did its work. Its a very lightweight Serum so it can be layered with your other products. The texture of it is not sticky at all. I use it in my am and alternate pm routines. After long term use, my skin is more even toned and brighter. Definitely will repurchase to continue in my skin care routine.
