Phloretin CF

I got a sample from @ [~skinceuticals] and @ [~weareeves] (thanks!) Because of the rather small bottle, I haven't been able to test for very long. My first impression is ok. The serum is watery and absorbs very quickly. Drip directly onto your face is more convenient than first on your hands because then you will already lose a lot of product. The scent is clean, a bit chemical but not annoying or overpowering. Once on my face, I couldn't really say it did much. I like it when I “feel” or see a product on my skin for a moment. Because the serum absorbs so quickly, this is not the case. I noticed or saw little difference. Not even after a few days of use. Given the short time that I've been testing the serum, I can't really say it did anything to my skin. With the price in mind, I wouldn't buy a full size anytime soon. I really like the brand itself.

Let me start with the positive: my skin looks great here. In the week and a half that I have been using it, I can already see my skin becoming a little smoother and my skin looks calm and full. It is also quite economical to use, but only if you use it smartly. If you put the serum in your hands first, there is nothing left to apply to your face, because it absorbs very quickly. How it worked best for me: facial toner for initial hydration. Then drip this serum directly onto my face (note: do not let the dropper touch the skin, not good for the shelf life of your product:)) and apply. So I managed to spread it nicely over my face and then it absorbed quickly. Then I followed up with day cream and sunscreen. So why only 3 stars? The specific user manual is the reason for this, but mainly the price. Skinceuticals is a great brand with their patented substances. However, I can't justify spending 144 euros on an antioxidant serum, while there are 20 to 30 euro serums that are just as effective. Price/quality are disproportionate for me. So if you want to spoil yourself with a nice serum from a real luxury brand, definitely do it. It is a beautiful and effective product. However, I wouldn't buy it myself at this price. I got this serum as a sample from the action of @ [~weareeves] and @ [~skinceuticals], thank you so much for that!

@ [~skinceuticals] allowed me to test phloretin cf. Every morning and evening, I put a few drops on my face with the handy pipette. It absorbed fairly quickly and didn't feel sticky. Despite the fact that I have very sensitive skin, I did not experience any problems with my skin with this serum! I think to really see a difference in the lines and dark spots on your face, you should test it longer, I haven't really seen a difference in my skin yet. However, the serum feels really nice on your face!
