   I’ve noticed my cheeks are sometimes a little bit reddish, but it’s not a major problem for me. Even tho red skin isn’t problem for me, I find this serum better than Hydr8 B5 hyaluronic acid serum. This doesn’t make my skin dry at all.

   I’ve almost finished this, been using it morning and evening and have seen no lessening of redness. I have diagnosed acne rosacea which is not especially severe but it does make me self conscious.

   The serum is oily but not moisturising enough to use alone, and of course you need a sunscreen. So I have to layer several products which I don’t have time for in the morning.

   I didn’t hate this but it did nothing for me and is pricey. Also, the rubber bulb on the dropper split after about a week so that was annoying.

   I’ve been on a search for products to reduce the diffused redness and broken capillaries I have across my cheeks and nose for 10 years. I won’t bore you with details the long story on my skin saga, but aggressive acne treatment products used in my early 20s sensitized my skin terribly and as a result I have rosacea type skin.
   I’ve spent a lot of money on IPL and V-beam treatments, which works wonders but are expensive to maintain. So I’m looking for a product regime that will keep my redness in check. Many products out there claim to work, and this is the only one out of dozens I’ve tried that actually does something. No, it doesn’t take it away 100%, but I think if I used this in combo with IPL it would. It does ALMOST as good a job on it’s own as laser treatments.
   I use it morning and night, and because my skin tends to be oily/acne-prone I don’t even need a moisturizer on top unless it’s winter or particularly cold out. The moisturizing properties of jojoba oil (the first ingredient) do the trick for my skin.

   Here is the list of ingredients:
   Simmondsia Chinensis Oil, Cyclopentasiloxane, Caprylic/Capric Triglyceride, Cyclohexasiloxane, Tocopherol Acetate, Teprenone, Salvia Officinalis Extract.

   It took about a month to start seeing results and I was only using it at night. When I switched to twice a day it sped things up.

   I’d highly recommend this to anyone looking for a product solution for redness and broken capillaries. It is soothing to my sensitive skin and doesn’t break me out at all. I have absolutely nothing negative to say about this product and will repurchase for as long as I need it 🙂

   I use this vitamin k cream on my face only, I use cheaper vitak stuff on my body for bruises and the two small spider veins on my legs, that works good too but I won’t put it on my face. I buy this off ebay for about 32$, list price is over 50$ but I would never pay that much for it. I also use the older packaging version, not the silvery one w/ the pump, the long translucent cylinder one that has the best cap every, it’s a very convenient pump w/ a nozzle that has a cap so that the excess product that’s caught in the tube doesn’t dry out or clump. GREAT design. It has the highest vitamin k concentration on the market at 8%, it is a simple formula with a few other beneficial ingredients that sinks into the skin nicely. I’ve used this on some small spider veins around my nose and cheek as well as to relieve dark circles under my eyes and it works well for both. I’m semi-prone to pimples and haven’t noticed any related breakouts in over a year of use. Only downside is that you have to keep using this for results, if you stop you’ll likely see your spider veins return. But, that’s not the products fault, just how vitamin k works.
