I started using it again after a long time and realized how good it was, so I've started using it again! I bought it last December, but the lotion version felt a bit tight, perhaps because it lacked moisture. I used it a couple of times and then shelved it. (My skin is thin and prone to dryness, so I prefer a thick, flaky lotion.) However, since this is a quasi-drug and contains many anti-aging and moisturizing ingredients, I thought it would be a waste, so I increased the amount I used to about the size of a 500 yen coin and applied a liner cream before it completely dried, blending it in. And boy! I felt a bit of a pulling sensation right after application, but after an hour or so, my skin felt so moisturized it felt sticky. My base makeup was starting to turn powdery with my current skincare routine, so this was a welcome rediscovery. I now use it three or four times a week in the morning. I believe pdc has formulated it to be very good at a reasonable price, so I want to support them. However, I've often been advised to use sunscreen in conjunction with retinol, which is sensitive to UV rays, but I wonder if the stability of the ingredients is a problem? I'm curious about that.
It's supposed to double as a lotion and emulsion, but I don't expect it to moisturize like an emulsion, and honestly, I don't feel that secure, so I moisturize with a cream after using it. I started using it because I wanted the niacinamide and retinol, but you can't really see results right away, so I'm using it slowly, hoping that if I can just maintain my skin's current condition, I'll be lucky. The texture is a bit thick.
I previously used "Pure Natural Essence Lotion Lift N" and found it to be a good value for the money, so I decided to try this premium product from the same brand. It's a time-saving combination of toner and emulsion, with a thick texture that spreads easily. I also appreciate that it's hypoallergenic, so it can be used on sensitive skin. The active ingredient, niacinamide, is said to improve existing wrinkles and prevent future blemishes. I'm also happy that it helps to improve the foundation of my skin. I've only been using it for a few days, so I don't know the results yet, but I'm rating it 5 out of anticipation.
