Love it!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Great for acne prone skin and breakouts. I can't do without this because whenever I apply at night, it's significantly better by morning.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I am really happy with this product!
My skin is maturing and I was looking for a serum that keeps acne away and helps keep my skin from looking blotchy. I do have some Malasma patches on my cheeks but it looks like with consistency it’s clearing up.
