APLB AHA BHA PHA Centella Ampoule Serum | AHA BHA PHA CEN™ 32.5% 1.35 FL.OZ/Korean Skincare, Exfoliant, Long lasting moisturizing, Revitalize for gentle and improve skin texture

Es de muy buen tamaño,no lo he probado pero espero ayude a mi piel a verse más radiante

This serum has been nice for my face - I tend to get dry areas on my upper cheeks, and this has pretty much solved that entirely. It's easy to apply - the serum is about the density you'd expect - enough viscosity that it won't run off your fingers immediately, but fluid enough to be very easy to spread. I recommend checking to make sure using an AHA and BHA, etc. won't be too much for your skin. I know there are some skincare ingredients that you should avoid using at the same time - alcohol-based products in particular. Also, be very careful with exfoliation, as these ingredients can add sensitivity. You might want to do a skin patch if you have rosacea or sensitive skin.

Emocionada de utilizar este producto. Leí reseñas muy positiva espero que me funcione. En adición llego súper rápido. Gracias

APLB is one Korean beauty brand that I have good success with because they are very ingredient conscious and skip all the scents. This serum is no exception. APLB uses a hexagonal shape for products to show what the focus of each is, and this one is most focused on calming and soothing aspects. Since this has 32.3% Centella asiatica extract and Centella-derived active ingredients, the soothing aspect is a given. Centella, sometimes called cica, is known for it's soothing, healing, and anti-inflammatory properties, and my reactive skin loves it. The moisturizing aspect might be surprising to some given the AHA, BHA, and PHA in the name, but exfoliants can help moisturize skin, and this serum has very low amounts so you can get the gentle exfoliation designed to help improve overall skin moisture. You can use this as part of an AM and a PM routine after cleansing and toning and before a moisturizer (and then sunscreen if in the AM). This has 0.2% tea tree oil, which is a very small amount. I consider that a good thing since too much can irritate my skin, plus it can impart a strong scent, but this serum has a good balance of ingredients with a faint herbal scent that fades almost immediately. This also has several other botanicals like holy basil, turmeric, sweet wormwood, sea buckthorn, lotus, and neem as well as a couple of others. Those are known for soothing, antioxidant, and/or anti-inflammatory properties. This is a relatively thin serum that spreads on easily and is quickly absorbed. Usually thicker serums are achieved by thickening agents, not more ingredients, so I am happy with a serum I can apply easily. This is another quality and affordable product that exemplifies why so many have gravitated to K-beauty!

I got this to replace another exfoliant that I liked, but it was a little more expensive. This one is fine. I haven't had any negative reactions, but I'm not sure it's as effective as the other one. I'll finish the bottle, but I'm not sure I'll reorder.
