HILARY SAYS REVIEW:

As claimed, it contains a great blend of antioxidant-rich oils like raspberry seed oil, jojoba oil, cranberry seed oil, pomegranate seed oil, cucumber seed oil and moringa oil. Antioxidants are substances that can prevent or slow damage to cells caused by free radicals. It contains turmeric extract, which has antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties, and has the ability to fade dark spots over time.


It also contains Tetrahexyldecyl Ascorbate (THD), which is an oil-soluble and stable form of vitamin C. Vitamin C has great properties – antioxidant, boosts collagen production and helps even out skin tone. Like other vitamin C derivatives, THD needs to be converted to L-ascorbic acid once it penetrates the skin, as ascorbic acid is what provides numerous benefits to the skin. The percentage of THD in this product has not been stated but I will guess it is somewhere between 3-5%, which is pretty low in my opinion if you want to enjoy the great effects of vitamin C.

If you’re after a facial oil that’s rich in antioxidants, this product is a great one. It is quite pricey in my opinion; you can get cheaper antioxidant-rich facial oils. If you’re after a product that will give you the great benefits of vitamin C, I will not recommend this product.
