What it is
This serum is made by shaking two layers: a smooth water layer and a rich oil layer. The water layer contains 5-ALA, and the oil layer contains natural macadamia nut oil. It softens and conditions the skin (stratum corneum) from top to bottom, and the moist, rich base feels as if it blends with the skin. It leads to healthy, soft skin.. Mineral oil-free, alcohol-free, paraben-free, allergy tested

I thought the oil would make my face feel sticky, but it wasn't that bad. It blended well with my skin, which has become less oily with age, and my pores became less noticeable, probably because my skin became plumper. It's not cheap, but the oil spreads easily, so it lasts well.
It came in a Bloom box. It's strange to use an oil as a primer; do you apply the lotion after the oil? I've used it a few times, but I still think it's better to use it after the lotion. However, I have dry skin, so I'd like to use it in the winter to feel the moisture!
It came in a Bloom Box. When I used it as a booster, I felt some friction (I have somewhat sensitive skin), and although it didn't irritate my skin, I didn't feel much of an effect, so I used it as a serum and oil after applying lotion. After that, I layered the cream from the same series on top, and it kept my skin moisturized without feeling sticky, and it improved my skin condition.
It came in a Bloom Box some time ago. It's the type that you shake before use. It's oil-based, so the lotion I used afterwards absorbed well. I didn't notice any dryness. I think I used it for about two and a half months. If you ask me if I'll buy it again... I'm not sure.
It was included in a subscription, and is a two-layer oil that needs to be shaken well before use. It has a firm oily texture, but it doesn't feel sticky at all, and its unique feel made me a little confused at first. However, it doesn't feel sticky. Given the price, it's difficult to continue using it, but this product made me realize once again how important beauty serums are.
