DERMATOLOGICALLY TESTED
Made up of 96% natural ingredients, this new brand can be found in Ion Orchard. They have a boutique of its own but for some reason, its almost always empty. I first pick up this serum in Greece since this brand originated from there and the prices were so much affordable. I bought it for $28 Euro and I think Singapore is selling it for $75.
Its a green glass bottle with only 15ml in size and it took me about 2 mths to use it up, applying once a day. I started off with using it in the morning, but I noticed that my cheeks turned slightly red several hours later and I vaguely remembered reading about Vitamin C being photosensitive to skin. I switched to using it at night and my skin reacted to it much better.
I prefer to apply products with active ingredients in the night as its been known that some active ingredients are less effective when they are exposed to the sun. This Vitamin C serum comes in at the right time, just as I was trying to battle with the slight pigmentation on my cheeks.
The key ingredient in this product is Ascorbyl Glucoside, which is a stabilized form of Vitamin C. On its packaging, its written that this product is recommended for ladies in the 25-35 age group with Anti-aging, Dark spots, Dull Skin, First Wrinkles concerns.
The Natural Serum Radiance product dispenses the lightweight milky serum via a dropper dispenser which is pretty hygienic although it also meant that each time I use it, the contents are exposed to the air. Being Vitamin C, isn't it bad to get exposed to the air?
Green in colour, the glass bottle looks slightly opaque but is not exactly so, as you can easily see the amount of contents in it. I do hope the Vitamin C contents are well-protected.
It has a nice citrus scent which is really uplifting and can easily perks up my mood. The serum sinks into my skin without leaving any greasiness. And after a month of daily usage, I can feel that my skin is softer, smoother and more radiant. The pigmentation spots on both cheeks look less prominent as well.
