Works well and is gentleI was looking for a new oil to incorporate into my skincare routine. I was using Niacinamide and vitamin C (sparingly) but wanted to try something geared more towards anti-aging since most of my spots are barely noticeable anymore. I had never tried a retinol before but was already researching it, so when I was asked to be a part of this campaign it was almost strange how perfect the timing was. I was a bit weary about using it in conjunction with my Glycolic acid as I'd heard pairing two active ingredients like that might be too harsh on the skin. But alas I decided to try it anyway. I started using it every couple of days and then gradually increased it to every other day. Eventually I found that the oil seems very gentle on my skin because I was able to use it daily. I didn't notice much peeling or dryness unless I skipped my moisturizer. But since I use moisturizer religiously, that's is not an issue for me. I noticed my skin looking smoother. The texture is less noticeable when I use the oil consistently. I'm in my 30s so I'm the target demographic for this product. I don't think the acne ingredients are too necessary for me but I do get the occasional breakout so I figure it won't hurt to have it in the product. I haven't noticed much of a difference in fine lines but my fine lines are barely noticeable (thank god for oily skin) but prevention is key so it's a good idea to start using it now rather than later. My understanding is that fine lines take a while to minimize anyway (at least 3 months for noticeable results) so I'll need more time to see if I notice a difference. All in all my skin does look better when using this oil. The only thing I'm not a fan of is the scent. I'd much rather have an unscented product any day.would never buy this product againthis product is absolutely HORRIBLE. I normally have very clear skin and i noticed i was breaking out so i went to ulta and a lady told me she loved this product so i tried it. this makes you purge which means you get TERRIBLE acne and purging can last up to 4 months. if you want something that will help get rid of your acne quick get the COSRX acne patches they're $20 for 72 patches and i've been using them for 2 days and my acne purge i was having from this product has gone down dramatically almost all the way gone. do not waste your money on this product it ruined my skin and created acne scars when before using this product i had no acne scars one pimple and i normally have 0 pimples. do not waste the time or money. there are so many better products that work faster, easy to use, and you get them for cheaper. this product should actually have a warning about how it makes everybody's skin purge and get severe acne.

Been using for a couple years

I originally started using this for acne and it definitely helped. I wouldn't say it's going to solve all of your acne problems by itself, but it definitely improves overall skin. It does not dry my skin out. I also see aging benefits with the retinol in this.

My favorite product ever!

This oil is just amazing! As someone who had struggled with acne for years and has used many harsh products it is so refreshing to find a product that is VERY effective, but still feels gentle. My skin is so clear and SO SMOOTH. I use this every night and it is the one step in my skincare routine I will never ever skip!

Works!

So far this oil has been working wonders. Complexion looks more radiant and clear. I only use at night before bed and I wake up refreshed. Love it.

I would buy again

I've only been using for about a week but my face looks amazing

Will ALWAYS repurchase

I've been struggling with acne since the pandemic started and I've tried EVERY product I could. I've spent hundreds of dollars on everything from cerave to glow recipe. I've tried entire kits and NOTHING has helped clear up my acne and dark spots so fast! I put this on every single night, I took a risk doing so frequently as I wasn't using a regional prior. My face is hydrated, all of my dark spots have faded or are almost 100% gone and if I have a breakout starting this will help heal it faster and sometimes even clear them by morning. I have no idea what's in this but I will ALWAYS repurchase. It is pricey but I've been using this since February and I'm still not done with it yet. 10/10 recommend
