We Finally Tried This Cult Favorite Skincare Product And It Changed Our Skin. Before And After Photos Galore.

That’s after 14 days of us. Yes. Two weeks. It’s like new skin.

So, what is this miracle witches brew?

It’s sort of not in any category that we’d already have versions of in our bathrooms. It’s sort of a new category. It’s basically an exfoliating product that uses Lactic Acid as its main ingredient, which verrrrry gently breaks down dead skin cells on the surface, revealing fresh, new, baby skin beneath. It tackles fine lines, wrinkles, irritation, and can visibly and almost immediately clarify blemishes. But because lactic acid has a larger molecular size than other acids, it causes zero irritation, making it a dream for sensitive skin (us. you?)

Let’s get another before and after shot, shall we?

Gentle enough to use every single night, this can replace your entire evening skincare routine (apart from cleansing) if you’re oily or combination—along with exfoliating, lactic acid is also a hydrating ingredient. And if you’re dry to very dry, follow up with your fave night cream. And that’s it. That’s the whole routine. The licorice and lemongrass help fade dark spots and hyperpigmentation. And prickly pear extract is a true miracle for calming redness and irritation. As you can clearly see:

We saw a difference in redness, smoothness, and texture after using for only one night but after two full weeks the results were astonishing. And unlike retinol, because lactic acid is so very gentle, you can just begin using it every night. If you’re extremely sensitive you can also use it as a mask for 15 or so minutes and wash off—just to be 100% sure your skin loves it.

We are honestly shocked. Sometimes the hype is real. And this is one of those times.
