Another serum which I have a lot of requests to do an review on is this Synergie Skin Exfoliating Serum.
I bought this serum at Erica's Store located in TST Hong Kong. Again, this is another product which I got drawn into after watching her video.
To be honest, I don't think I have use this product long enough to review it, but I can give you my experience with this product so far.
I have used other products with AHA/BHA before (even I have sensitive skin, but like I said, I love to try new things). Some are too strong that it actually make my skin irritate (feels like burning, skin turns red and sensitive), some gives me a glow, and some just doesn't do anything other than making your skin smells like acid.
This exfoliating serum is good, not great, but good. It doesn't irritate my skin, I do feel like it gets rid of dead skin on my face, but to be honest, I don't feel it has improve my blackhead problems. I use this only at night (because product which consist of acid can actually makes your skin prone to sun damage), and I use it on my nose, forehead & chin.
Overall, this product is fair, but if you are after a product that removes blackheads, I'm afraid this product may disappoint you. I have read a book explaining that blackheads are impossible to get rid of since it is actually a shadow of your pores. Very interesting....
I've just finish my first bottle of Botani Olive Skin Serum, and I just want to say I LOVE IT! I think it is one of the best serums that I have ever encounter.
This serum was first introduced to me from Erica Yuen's youtube channel. Although I am always quite skeptical about the products that she reviewed (because she actually sell those products), but I thought I might give this a go! and to my surprise, this serum works beautifully!
I am not a girl who is afraid to use oil products on my face, in fact, I am a girl who loves thick moisturisers, serum, cleansing lotion/cream etc. So the fact that this serum is oil doesn't bother me at all.
I usually use this at night, after toner and before moisturiser (sometimes I skip moisturiser altogether). I put a few drop on my hand, rub my hand together to warm it up, and then press it onto my face. It instantly gives my skin a healthy glow and then the day after when you wake up, my skin is so soft and supple!!!!
It doesn't break me out at all, but if you have oily skin I suggest you to use less of the product, maybe use 2 drops instead of 3 drops.
