I used the sample and it suited my skin so well that I decided to buy the full product. I wasn't given any instructions, but it seems to be very effective on pores and dryness. I'm looking forward to seeing what happens after using the whole bottle.
I've bought Takami Skin Peel and lip balm multiple times. I was initially surprised by the intense orange color, which made me wonder if it was oxidizing. It moisturizes my skin and is effective on fine wrinkles, but it can make my loungewear look dirty and can make my skin look dull and yellow if I use it in the morning. While I'm comfortable using it the night before when I've decided not to leave the house, it's also a product I don't reach for often. I'll wait and see how my skin responds until I've used up the whole bottle.
Just one drop from the dropper is applied to the skin and it is absorbed immediately. My skin felt plump and moisturized after use.
I was thinking of buying the Vitamin C product because I was concerned about my pores, but when I had my skin examined at the store, I was told that this Pycnogenol would be a better fit for me since my skin is thin and dry, so I bought this. It has a thick, orange consistency and is easy to use without dripping. The dropper has a line indicating the amount to use, but it becomes hollow after sucking up the amount, so it may be difficult to get the right amount. It's not sticky, and I feel like it makes my skin more elastic, so I'm very happy with it.
It seems to be effective in firming and moisturizing the skin. It contains pycnogenol, vitamin P, and hyaluronic acid. It felt fine when I applied it, but I didn't notice much of a difference the next morning. I won't be repurchasing it.
