The Ordinary Treat Resveratrol 3% + Ferulic Acid 3%

Because my skin is actually not very good at fighting powerful actives such as Retinol, I started looking for anti-aging alternatives. So I ended up with Resversatrol with ferulic acid. I've been a fan of The Ordinary for a long time. Their products have a nice quality/price ratio. This product is made on an oil (squalaene) basis and I don't really like it but I thought I'd just try it. Pleasantly surprised! This hydrates my skin wonderfully and I haven't had a reaction to it. Whether it really does what it promises is still a bit too early for that. But I really like the product that absorbs relatively quickly but still moisturizes well. I will definitely order it again.

Wonderful facial oil, also as a base for day and night cream, great!

Normally, I'm not a fan of oily products, but this one spreads well and absorbs relatively quickly. It can be irritating on your skin at first, but if you build it up slowly, it's no problem. I'm now alternating it with a vitamin C serum. My skin is silky smooth after using this product, and you can also massage it in well with a gua sha. I still use a moisturizer on top because otherwise it will pull a bit. It's going to make you shine a lot.

Since I used this product together with vitamin C, my skin glows. I'm turning 50 next year, not a lot of wrinkles yet, but I did have a pale complexion. And I didn't notice that myself until I started using it. The reason why I don't give 5 stars is because I really need to get used to the skin feeling. It is not included in the oil products, but I think it is quite oily. I first put on the resveratrol, my face feels so oily that lubricating vitamin c is a bit difficult. You no longer feel if the Vit C spreads like this and that you don't need much or if it's because of the resveratrol. I'm mixing them now and that already feels a lot better. Just hope he works like that.. question is still off. It is otherwise odourless. Price/quality is unparalleled for me.
