[SKIN1004] Madagascar Centella Ampoule 55ml

I'd spent 3 months trying out barrier creams and such my derm had recommended with no benefit. Then I found this centella. I was just using it daily then topping it with barrier cream, not expecting much. Then on day 21, I noticed my skin was back to normal! (except the rosacea which was red and lots of little bumps...Prosacea got rid of the bumps but I still have redness.) I now put this on over my rosacea stuff. Just pat it on like water. After it dries, I top it with La Roche Posay Barrier Cream to lock it in.

My skin looks moisturized and youthful again and my barrier is totally restored. Centella can benefit rosacea, but rosacea solutions are never one-size-fits-all. It certainly doesn't hurt. I am also still able to use retinol under my eyes and forehead where there isn't rosacea, and centella can be used on top of that to help with the dryness retinol can cause. I've researched centella a lot and it's safe to combine with everything.

This brand has a lot of winners. I was so torn between getting the tea tree ampoule and this one. But I figured I already have two tea tree based products right now. I also wanted the darker bottle ampoule but I decided to try that in the fall/winter. This ampoule is great for the summer. The consistency is like a slightly thickened water. It feels amazing, I love the lack of residual stickiness. The skin absorbs it well then still has a massive layer of glowy moisture on top. This remaining layer I either pat into my face, or wait about 1 min then apply the next product. When I have not waited and applied the next product when my face is wet, instead of the products pilling, it kind of just keeps the next product off. So even though it’s so rich, I can still continue to layer more products on my face without the pilling (those little balls of product when you put too much or a bad combo of products). It does calm my highly reactive skin. A little goes a long way, it is incredible how much decent product there is for the price, and I hope with all hope the increased demand doesn’t decrease the quality over time.

Ho preso questa fiala per provare a curare la mia barriera cutanea danneggiata. Ha funzionato anche meglio del previsto! Super leggera, per niente appiccicosa o pesante. Ho notato meno rossore con un solo utilizzo. Lascia la pelle rimpolpata e lenita.

It is gentle and non-irritating but I am not sure how effective it is. I haven't seen any major changes in my skin but it did not make anything worse. I will continue using it but I am not sure if I would re-purchase.

I LOVE THE CENTELLA LINE. Skin 1004 is my favorite brand because on the Centella line. It soothes my skin and calms down my face so much. It's so good for your skin. It's a must
