I’ve been using this product for only 2 days, day and night. I’m conscious about writing a review so soon within using this product but I have honestly noticed such a difference in my skin. I was struggling with a clan of Spots on my chin (areas which are covered by PPE) they were sore & red. 2 days later you can hardly see the blemishes and they have gone down so much. I normally use sudocrem and it works , but I wasn’t getting anywhere with it this time!! Normal (well kind of - it's purified and deionized) water. Usually the main solvent in cosmetic products.

The problem with linalool is, that just like limoneneit oxidises on air exposure and becomes allergenic. That’s why a product containing linalool that has been opened for several months is more likely to be allergenic than a fresh one.A semi-essential amino acid meaning that enough has to be eaten from it so that the body does not use up essential amino acids (that our body cannot produce itself) to synthesize it. It has an important role in regulating the immune defense, allergic reactions, and inflammatory processes in the body.
