Ingredients:
Centella Asiatica Extract.
I try to mark the sunscreen ingredients in red and other possible irritants in lilac. Ingredients thought to be good and useful for skin I mark green. Learning as I go, google is my friend etc...
Thoughts:
- Honestly can't notice any difference whether I use it or not. Actually in the beginning I started to break out a little after switching from LJH's Tea Tree Essence to this.
- Can't feel that it would hydrate much.
- No soothing effect.
- Dropper feels too long to use comfortably, feels delicate.
+ Feels very nice on skin, basically like water, absorbs quickly.
+ Bottle feels sturdy and nice.
+ Very good packaging, bottle is also wrapped in plastic.
+ Clear best before dates.
+ No fragrance.
+ Can be layered. Doesn't affect other products.

* I was very excited about centella asiatica products when I discovered them for the first time and I've had some success with them, too. So a big bottle of centella asiatica essence felt like a logical thing to buy, right? Still, after a long time of using it, I don't really notice any reason to use it anymore and I just don't reach for it. Maybe the ampoule works for other people, I hope so at least. I will probably just try to end it by splattering the rest of it on my neck or use as a mist.
* But I must say maybe this essence is something you have to use for a long time and consistently and I failed to do that and that's why it's not working? Maybe my skin just doesn't need it?
Price:
$15.99 USD
Bought from:
Bbcosmetic
Buy again?
No, at the moment I don't think so.
Worth the money?
For me, no... quite expensive for water as I have no idea how much extract is in the product and I don't notice any difference whether I use it or not. But it's not doing any harm either and watery products feel nice on my skin. Eh, maybe Skin1004's Madagascar Centella Asiatica Ampoule should be even a bigger bottle and labeled as a toner. But for an ampoule 100 ml is a lot.
