Review (3/5): Irritated, redness, inflamed
I gave this three stars a neutral rating rather than good or bad. Let me explain why. I was very interested in this product since I always use vitamin C in my regimen I'm always checking out different brands. Plus this one is also a revitalizing oil and I love products that brighten the skin. It's also a cruelty free product. It's a small bottle as you can see from my photo. Has a small dropper which is perfect since you only need a little bit. Now this product directs you to use this first after cleansing your skin before any other serums or creams. It directs 2-6 drops I recommend 2-3 or it'll be too oily. I still had a little trouble when applying my hyaluronic acid. (The drops are small). It has an awful smell that I can't place, but it's familiar from some other skincare products. This smell does go away thankfully. This product claims that your skin will feel light and refreshed. Mine didn't feel that. My skin felt nice to the touch but it felt very irritated and it was inflamed. It caused my skin to become very red (mean while I'm always trying to get rid of redness). I thought about cleaning my face off and starting over without this oil, but it was too late it was absorbed. My skin was left feeling very uncomfortable, irritated, and red. Fortunately I tried this on a day when I was just going to chill at home. I ended up applying a moisturizer that calms skin, reduces redness, and is great for sensitive skin. It helped very little with this particular issue but it usually does help. Please keep in mind that my skin is not really sensitive. Very few products have ever irritated it. I ended up very concerned about a breakout which I never get. This product is sadly not for me at all! So I gave this a neutral rating instead of a lower rating because it may work nicely for someone else. Thus far this has been my experience with this product. I really wanted to love it. Please take my entire review into account when deciding whether or not to purchase this. I personally cannot recommend this product. Especially to anyone with any skin sensitivity. I hope my review has been helpful.
