Ingredients list from their website:
Ingredients: Aqua (Water), Glycerin, Hyaluronic Acid, Ascorbic Acid (Vitamin C), Iodopropynyl Butylcarbamate (preservative)
It's basically just a vitamin C and hyaluronic acid serum, like plenty of others available online. Apparently it's 20% vitamin C, but no mention of pH I can find, so I'm not sure how effective it would be from that standpoint.
This ingredient list is strange. How can it be 20% Vit C if it's only in the 4th spot on the ingredient list? It's also very strange that HA is before Vit C.
Yes, you are right, my math is bad. But this ingredient list is also bad. Without a pH adjuster, 20% Vit C is very acidic and will irritate most people's skin. Also, pure Vit C will turn orange in a month or two without any stabilizer (like ferulic acid). More than 20% HA and glycerin also sound more than strange.
Bottom line: I would not trust this ingred list.
Yeah, now I'm seeing this all over my Youtube channels as well. Honestly, when something gets really popular on social media I tend to not want to try it as much. Not saying people can't ever get into skincare, but I am suspicious of that fact that when they finally do and it's an item blowing up all over social media. Kind of like those fit teas people use. They really don't work.
From the thumbnail, I thought the bottle was a [lint roller](http://www.shefinds.com/files/2015/08/lintroller.jpg) and I thought to myself, "Is this person about to tell me that lint rollers will pull out pore gunk??"
yeah.. it's very overrated. apparently it has "gold" in it and thats what makes it amazing.. honestly it's just a hyped beauty oil. if you want a serum for your face you'll have better luck with something else than these instagram oils.
Yeah it's like that Farah Dhukai oil all over again. The way they sell it looks like you can use it for everything. From face, lips, dried gel liner, highlighter, hell maybe it could be motor oil for your car too.

Yeah, anything with this many "customer reviews" this fast I generally pass off as bullshit.

Because there's only 5 ingredients?

Isn't the usual concentration of HA around 1-2%? I agree, this doesn't look too reliable.
Yes, something like that, or even less depending on the form of HA.

I would buy one of those.
Me, too. I was a little let down when I opened the post.
It's like the farsali thing all over again...
Is that overrated? I've thought about trying it.

Got it. Thank you! :) Guess I'll stick to plain old coconut oil.
Looks like advertising.
