“I am a skincare addict and I frequently do massive amounts of research before trying any product. I am also 39 years old and I have oily, acne prone skin but I also smoked from the age of 18 to 28, thankfully I have been able to quit but it was too late since I have smoke lines near my lips and wrinkles on my forehead. Anyway like I mentioned, I have tested a decent amount of skincare products in my day but I also have a tendency to be drawn in by what’s the most fashionable and expensive thing you can find at places like Sephora. Lately I’ve been using mainly Drunk Elephant products, especially their AHA/BHA products with moderate success but I swear they are the cause of some breakouts I have been getting on my chin. My mother, who is 67 years old but looks only 50 years old, has amazing, smooth and clear skin. I asked her what her secret was and she told me that all she really uses is this serum and their Prevent oil each morning. I had never heard of Naked and Thriving before, but I finally tried the Illuminate serum two days ago and I think I found one of the most miraculous skincare products I’ve ever used. I usually wait to review items until I feel like enough time has passed to give them a proper chance but after the first day of using this my nasty smoke lines look diminished and what I’m really excited about is that it faded old acne scars significantly, in just two days. Also the existing pimples I had on my chin are clearing up, my pores look tighter, it gives my skin an instant glow. This is the only new product I’ve added to my regimen recently. So far it hasn’t caused any pore congestion or irritation, and it’s formula is not greasy, gives you a glow. Let’s just say I have been using drunk elephant for two months and have yet to review it, I have been using naked and thriving for two days and I cannot stop raving.”
