I received this product in an official The Body Shop lottery for X a while ago. Thank you for the review. I'm late, but I'd like to share my impressions from when I used it before. This serum contains vitamin C derivatives and bakuchiol. I love both vitamin C and bakuchiol, so I'm happy that it contains both. It's thick but not sticky, and it leaves my skin feeling supple. The scent is citrus, I think, but a little strange. The reason I gave it 4 stars is because I didn't notice any changes even after using it for a while, so I thought, at this price, I might choose another vitamin C product. However, it also contains bakuchiol, so I'm not sure what the long-term impact will be.
It spreads easily and has a fairly strong citrus scent. I used the tester, but it was too much for me to use up in one go. It seems to be more effective at improving shine than at treating pores.
It contains bakuchiol, known as a second retinol, and the sales associate recommended using it from spring, so I bought it. It has a very thick, heavy texture and a unique scent. I think people will either love or hate the texture and scent. It spreads quite well, so unlike runny serums, just two or three drops are enough to thoroughly moisturize my entire face. I haven't often come across serums that feature Vitamin C and offer such strong moisturizing properties, but this one really hydrates, which is a great plus! My skin remains plump and hydrated even after a while of using it. I haven't noticed any noticeable effects like smaller pores yet, but I do feel like my skin tone has brightened a little, so I plan to repurchase it and see how it goes.
