Early verdict · Few reviews so farWhat the gurus are saying
This serum's thin, watery texture makes it ideal for layering under moisturiser and spreads smoothly without stickiness or tackiness. Gurus found it effective at smoothing the chest and body and preventing breakouts when used daily or twice daily, though it does not hydrate on its own so you'll want to follow with a lotion. The 0.5% strength and generous 240 ml size mean you can treat large areas of the body without running out quickly, making it a practical option for rough patches like hands and chest.
