Safe, Lightweight, Hydrating – Perfect for sensitive, super oily, acne-prone skin
Size: 1.85 Fl Oz (Pack of 1), Size: 1.85 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
I care most about the ingredients, and this Madagascar Centella Ampule is excellent — all the ingredients are safe, with no potential harm to your health, and it’s Yuka app approved with a 100/100 safety score. I feel confident using it on my sensitive, super oily, acne-prone skin.
It’s super lightweight, absorbs quickly, and is not sticky at all — after applying, you just feel comfortable hydration. Even after a few hours, my skin doesn’t get oily, unlike some other serums I’ve used. It helps calm my skin and restore the barrier, which is perfect for my skin type. Even when I have acne wounds, it doesn’t irritate or sting — it’s extremely gentle. For sensitive, super oily, acne-prone skin like mine, it works wonderfully.
Living in Utah, one of the driest states in the U.S., this serum keeps my skin hydrated even in very dry conditions, and a little goes a long way — 1–1.5 drops cover my face and neck. Using more can make my skin slightly oily, so just the right amount works perfectly. For someone with dry skin, results may differ, but for my skin type, it works beautifully.
It’s also super affordable, and I’m glad it’s available on Amazon, with occasional great deals at Costco. I appreciate that it’s accessible at this price because this serum helps my skin a lot — very gentle on my acne-prone, sensitive, super oily skin.
The serum is super easy to apply with the dropper, which keeps other things from getting into the bottle — it’s perfect for easy, hygienic application. Just note that the bottle is glass, so be careful — it may break if dropped.
I’ve only been using it for three weeks, but it’s already a staple. I currently use one bottle, and the other two are extra for long-term use, especially since I got them on a great deal. This is now my main hydration serum, and I’ll update after longer use if needed.
