I also tried using the lotion and cream along with Brillio, and was surprised to see that the impression of my eyes was noticeably different the next morning.
When I purchased the serum from the official website, it came with a sample, so I thought I'd try the whole line and bought it at a discount on BeautyDay. As the reviews say, the scent is ". (^_^;)", but it seems to have a moderate moisturizing effect on pores. I'll try using one bottle and see how it goes.
I tried the sample pouch I received when I purchased Cellular Brillio (Eggshell Membrane Booster Serum). It is a wrinkle-improving lotion containing niacinamide. It has a similar smell to Cellular Brillio, like eggs with lemon, but it is slightly viscous and blends well with the skin. I had sensitive skin before my period, but I didn't feel any irritation. The four-star rating may be a bit harsh. There are quite a few lotions that are just as good, so I refrained from giving it five stars because of the subtle smell of the ingredients and the difficulty of obtaining it, as it is a regular purchase through mail order.
Since I started using this lotion, my skin has changed dramatically. My pores are less noticeable, and my skin has a glow from within. It really does make my skin look like an eggshell. With other lotions, my pores start to become more noticeable and my skin becomes dry, so I can't live without this product.
I tried the sample pouch I received when I purchased Cellular Brillio (Eggshell Membrane Booster Serum). It's a wrinkle-fighting lotion containing niacinamide. It has a similar scent to Cellular Brillio, like eggs and lemon, but it's slightly thick and blends well with my skin. I have sensitive skin before my period, but I didn't experience any irritation. A four-star rating might be a bit harsh. There are plenty of similarly good lotions out there, so I refrained from giving it five stars because of the subtle scent and the difficulty of obtaining it, which requires a subscription via mail order.
