Not for Me, But It Might Be For You!

Picture Descriptions: 1st Picture- Front of box packaging 2nd Picture- Back of box packaging 3rd Picture- Actual product received, without cap. Like the headline says, this product isn't for me, but it's most likely because of personal preference and skin type. While this doesn't work for me personally, it might be just the product you or someone else is looking for. But let's start with the positives: First, I love the packaging. I like that it's upfront, easy to read, and describes exactly what it is, what it does, what is in it, and what those ingredients are for. I also like that I DON'T have to play "word search" among an essay of tiny print to find the directions. Next, if you're worried that 1 oz. is a very small amount of product for the price of this product, I promise you that in this case, it is not. In picture 3, you can see how large the bottle is compared to my hand (note that I am a pretty small Filipino woman, so my hands are a bit smaller than the average American). Also, you only need just a couple drops on your fingertip per application. This will last you probably a couple months at the least. Lastly, it is easy to apply and the directions are straight-forward. The pump (mine, at least) is easy to use and doesn't get stuck. It also doesn't drip and get everywhere. Now For Why This is Not For Me: Upon first application, my face felt very oily and slightly sticky to the touch, like I had been sweating all day and haven't washed my face in a week. This was really unpleasant to me, and there was a visible sheen to my face. That being said, after about 30 minutes to an hour, that went away and my face felt and looked great, but that initial oily/sticky-ness was just a bit too unpleasant for me and I find myself wanting to avoid it if I can. I want to note here that I followed the directions exactly and only used a couple drops for my entire face. Next, I woke up the next morning with an acne breakout on my face. I have a pretty bad history of stubborn acne, but throughout the last 2ish years, I've gotten it well under control and my face has been mostly clear of acne for that time. I do have occasional spots in some trouble-areas still, but it is night-and-day in comparison. Admittedly, I have nothing to prove this serum caused this breakout, and something else very-well could have, but, after working fast to end the sudden breakout, I don't want to risk having to deal with that kind of thing that I dealt with for years, again. The packaging says this is for all skin-types, and it probably is for MOST skin-types out there, but mine is a bit unique due to my very specific ethnicity, as well as some genetic skin problems I inherited from my mother. Misc. Related Information That Some May Care To Know: Ethnicity: Filipino-German Age: 24 Skin-Type: Oily, but very very sensitive. Occasional, small psoriasis patches, but, more often than that, acne Procedure Followed: At the end of the day, I removed my make-up and washed my face. Once my face was dry from washing it, I pumped a couple drops of the product on my finger tip and rubbed it on as much as my face as possible.
