I was hesitant to purchase this due to the price, but I think I may be hooked. I got a sample of this through Detox Market to test it out since it is so pricy, which was great since otherwise I wouldn’t;t have even considered it. Unfortunately I think the sample I got was rancid because it smelled sour and weird. I tried it anyway, since sometimes more natural products have a more earthy smell to them. I loved the results, and really what got me was that after I ran out of the sample I noticed a huge difference in my skin—more congestion and I just lost the glow I had.
I decided to purchase the full size, and I’ve got that glow back and my skin is smoothing out again. This bottle smells divine (like roses, but fairly subtle). I have really sensitive skin, and I love that I see results from this but have absolutely no irritation or redness (especially since previous “gentle” retinol formulas still really irritated my skin and caused burning). I’m able to use this every day with no issues! While the price held me back, I find I don’t need many other products when using this, so I can actually simplify my routine and save money that way. Will definitely repurchase!
