I like how it's moisturizing yet whitening. It's a little pricey, but I'll keep buying it.
I used it morning and night for a week and my face became a little brighter.
I bought it because the salesperson recommended it. I like the scent ^_^ My skin got a little red for the first 1-2 days, but after that I was able to use it without any problems! I was also given samples of lotion and milk, so I plan to use those as well for a while. I was told to try using it in the morning and at night, but it didn't go well with the sunscreen base I use in the morning, and it left a flaky mess, so I'll only use it at night on days when I put something on top of it.
I can use it without feeling any irritation. Although the 7-day limit is a little on the wallet, I wanted to try a vitamin C serum that doesn't stain the stratum corneum.
I couldn't buy it last year, so I bought it this year. It's an essence that doesn't contain preservatives, so you can use it up in 7 days. You can use it up to your neck, so it can be used in 7 days. I used it for 3 days, and it seemed to brighten my skin and remove the dullness. After applying the essence, I apply Clarins whitening serum. After applying the essence, if you have eczema or other breakouts on your skin, it will sting. Also, for some reason, my forehead stings. That happened once. It may be a little irritating. However, I was able to continue using it because it didn't cause any irritation after that. I will repurchase it.
