must have for acne-prone skin
This reminds me of SKII pitera essence, but much cheaper! You have to shake it before applying because it has a bi-phase formula. There’s glycolic acid which helps gently exfoliate the skin and AHA/LHA to help reduce the appearance of pores, fine lines and smooth the skin. It helps prep the skin before you apply any serums and moisturizer too. It’s not heavily fragrant which I like, I’ve notice it’d help tremendously for those pesky bumps I’ve gotten from wearing masks. I use this in combination with the Or Rouge La Lotion and for my serums I use the night reboot twice a week.
