When asked, ‘When you hear Canada, what are the first words that come to your mind?’, many ordinary people would probably say: ‘Maple Leaf’. And, no wonder, as it is the country’s official national symbol.
When asked the same question but about The Ordinary, a Canadian skincare brand, many beauty connoisseurs would probably say: ‘Seaside Pine’. And this would be the right answer.

It slightly stings upon application, but these sensations quickly disappear. However, after prolonged use, the skin has a fresh, moisturized appearance. Due to certain life circumstances, I stopped using it for a week, and the difference is noticeable. The skin is combination type and aged 45+.
I really liked the serum, I use 3 drops before applying cream before sleep. Satisfied.
Upon first application, a terrible allergy appeared in the form of reddish-blue spots. How did I not read the reviews before purchasing?!
I have combination skin. Unfortunately, this serum is a waste of money. It doesn't absorb into the skin even after half an hour of application. There is a yellow film left on the skin as if someone smeared iodine on you. I do not recommend it.
Dry, sensitive skin.
On the 5th day of use, a red rash similar to hives appeared.
The serum has an oily texture and a iodine-like color.
It does not absorb well into the skin and leaves a greasy film.
Also, an allergy appeared after application in the form of a burn.
Leaves stickiness on the skin, did not notice any difference in skin quality after use.
Excellent serum, slightly oily texture, has a color like iodine solution. I use it with vitamin C alternately with resveratrol + ferulic acid, I don't know if it will have an effect on its own, but when used together with vitamin C, they work to improve the complexion and even out the skin tone. Both me and my mom have noticed the effect, as we both purchased the same set of products.
