Phloretin CF

The texture is an orange thick liquid (due to phloretin, which is an orange powder). It is absorbed very quickly, literally in seconds, so when applying you need to concentrate and do everything quickly. The smell is a mixture of sour and alcoholic notes. The latter evaporate very quickly and a pleasant aftertaste of something plant-based remains, I don’t even know what to compare it with. About me: my skin is combination, with enlarged pores and uneven texture, there are areas with hyperpigmentation, very prone to comedones - in general, the whole set. Firstly, the serum dries out my skin terribly. It's completely drier - to the point of obvious peeling. Secondly, I didn't see any miracles - no effect on pores, pigmentation, wrinkles, or turgor. Of course, here I can be told that the serum works for the future.

I was skeptical about what this serum would help reduce sun damage and skin aging. I'm 35 years old so my skin isn't so bad yet. But it looks visibly better. Every morning, I use a small drop on my hand, which is easy and hygienic to apply with the pipette. And then I dab the product into my cleansed skin. Then I put day cream over it. Last week I had an outbreak of pimples and they disappeared completely within 2 days, I'm sure this serum helped. My skin looks better after 2 weeks of testing. Fewer impurities. But the price is really expensive for a serum. So I don't know if I would use it again when the serum runs out. Just because of the price. Thank you @ [~skinceuticals] for letting me test this product.

In one word: great! I have a persistent dark spot above my working eyebrow that won't lighten no matter what I try. Fortunately, I got to test this serum, so who knows! Well, to be honest, I'm really amazed at the results. I'm not even very loyal to using it, maybe 3 to 4 times a week. I then used it in the morning on cleansed skin before my makeup and in the evening on cleansed skin for the evening cream. And even with this, I really notice a big difference! I used it for about a month. The stain really seems to be lighter. So I am very satisfied. The only disadvantage, of course, is the price *swallow* I'm not sure I would pay for it myself, no matter how well it works. But if you still have 177 euro lying around somewhere, you would say: do it!
