"I have been struggling with my skin for the last year. . . dryness, flaking, hairline pimples and most notably BAD redness from under nose to chin area. I am 46, so clearly A lot of hormonal stuff happening. Using this with Dermalogica cleanser, microfoliant, (occasionally witch hazel) and skin smoothing cream has made the biggest difference! Redness is no more and pores are much much more refined. My skins texture looks a million times better and feels delicious;)"
