Amazon.com: A.H.C. Vitamin B5 Serum for Face – Hyaluronic Acid – Hydration + Anti-Aging, Skin Soothing Moisturizing Facial Serum – 1.69oz (50ml) : Beauty & Personal Care

This product is really, REALLY good.

I’ll get into it in a minute, but first, some background info on my skin:
-I have combination (leaning oily) skin: My forehead and chin are impossibly oily and my nose and cheeks tend to be dry.
-I have *sensitive* skin: Typically, introducing a new product to my skin results in at least a week’s worth of very painful acne.
-On that note, I have very acne-prone skin. (Thought when I stopped being a teenager, that would stop, but it’s still constant at 22!)

With this in mind, I am always hesitant to try something new. Products never seem to work right– I use moisturizers to solve the dryness, and it makes my skin feel like an oil slick, or I use masks to absorb the oil and suddenly I’m flaking. Long story short: I can’t win.

This product was a gamble, but I’m so glad I got it. Here’s what I love:

1) My skin, notoriously sensitive and easily inflamed, hasn’t had a single negative reaction to this. It’s incredibly gentle. I’ve actually seen a marked IMPROVEMENT with my acne, instead of an increase.
2) This is not weighty. One pump is all you need to create a comfortable, light layer of moisture on your skin. (I tried two and it was…too much. All you need is one!) It sits on your skin for a moment, and then you’re no longer aware of it, which is great, because I hate the feeling of a moisturizer just sitting on your face.
3) There’s no smell or greasiness to it. The scent is very light and imperceptible, and the serum is absorbed quickly. No one else will notice it on your face.
4) It makes my skin very soft, but not slick. It’s not like a lotion.
5) My skin looks brighter and fresh! I mean, I’m 22 so I’m not wrinkled, but I feel like I look more dewey and soft with it on.

I do one pump at night after I’ve washed my face, and one pump in the morning after my shower. I love this. My only advice is to let your face have a minute or so to dry after its wash before you apply the serum. I feel like it applies better to dry faces.

Definitely worth it! Highly recommended.
