CONCLUSION
Pro
- It is extremely hydrating
- Great for anti-aging; my skin looks a lot firmer and tighter since incorporated snail mucin extract in my routine.
- This is excellent for people living in tropical countries like Nigeria because it contains panethol which protects the skin against sunburn and soothes already existing burns.
- It also saved my skin during the current winter months. It soothes and leaves my skin moisturized even before my moisturizer.
- Not greasy or heavy on my face.
- Never broke me out or irritated my skin once
- A little goes a long way; I started using this product in October and I am not even close to the half way mark.
- The price point is reasonable
After testing this product for over 2 months, I am happy to report that there are no CONS to mention so far which is huge. It is not officially a Krème de la Krème of skincare product yet but I get the feeling it’s not far off from being put in that category.
I would like to say Happy New Year to everyone who started this blog journey with me last year. I wish you all a pleasant year. Please don’t forget to share via, twitter or any other social media handle you use and please leave comments below about the review or any skincare related question would love to hear from you.
