PACKAGING AND PRICE




It came in a dark brown plastic bottle with the usual diffuser where you have to shake to get the product out. The reason for the dark bottle is because vitamin C containing products can be oxidized in transparent easily. I am glad that the toner does not leak out from this packaging no matter how hard you shake so I can carry it around while traveling as well without worrying.
You get the 200ml of product which is available at Yesstyle.


MY EXPERIENCE



The toner is just lightweight as water and same goes the consistency and it does have a tint of brown/yellow to it. It does have a chemical citrusy scent to it which I personally like ( as I like the scent of Bergamot Fruit Oil which is at the very end of the ingredient list) and the scent does fade away after few seconds so you don’t have to worry. It absorbs into the skin easily and it does not create any film or feel heavy on the skin, I will surely be using it in the summer as well. It’s one of those toners which feels good and just right, this Galactomyces pure C vitamin V provide the right amount of hydration to the skin and your skin feels instantly healthy. So far I am loving this toner, it does not irritate my skin or feel tingly on the skin.

SOME BY MI  GALACTOMYCES PURE VITAMIN C GLOW SERUM REVIEW




Some by mi Vitamin C serum contains 75%(750,000 ppm) of galactomyces which to nourish and moisturize the skin and make the skin texture smoother. It also contains 3% (30,000 ppm) of vitamin C to soothe skin tired from ultraviolet rays and help maintain clear skin, it also contains 10 vitamins just like the Some by mi Galactomyces Pure Vitamin C Glow toner. It contains Vitamin B3, B1, B5, B6, B12, B9, Vitamin C, E,F, and H.


KEY INGREDIENTS


Lactomeses fermented filtrate (75%), dipropylene glycol, glycerin ascorbic acid (30,000 ppm, butylene glycol, 1,2-8 Bandai niacinamide, tromethamine, purified water, trehalose c12-14 palace-12, Allantoin, hydroxyethylcellulose xanthan gum Ethylhexyl glycerin, adenosine Bergamo E oil,hydrogenated lecithin, glyceryl acrylate acrylic acid, copolymer, soya hyaluronate, Lil-10 Stearate, Lavender Oil, Panthenol Sorbitan Ascorbyl Phosphate, Phenylethyl Surinol Propolis Extract, Aronia Fruit Extract, Rooibos Extract, Saccharide Hydrolysate, Maltodextrin, Fig extract


PACKAGING AND PRICE




Some by mi glow serum came in a dark brown glass dropper packaging. The did something extra smart about the packaging which I haven’t seen other doing that they add the plastic stopper like the one you get on the top of your lip gloss so when you pull out the dropper/applicator you do not get excess product and in that case you will not see crusty layer around the top of the bottle and I think it will also help to slow down the process of oxidization.

You get the 30ml of serum for 19 dollars from Yesstyle.


MY EXPERIENCE


The serum does smell the same as the toner but again the smell fades away pretty quickly. It is pretty transparent in color with the tiny hint of gold/champagne color. It is a little bit viscous than the toner in consistency but once spread it on the skin it melts just like the toner and absorbs pretty quickly without any tacky feeling which is something new because I haven’t tried any vitamin c serum which is that lightweight and does not feel tacky/sticky. I know that it has a low percentage of vitamin c as compare to other serums but I think this is something I can blindly recommend people with the sensitive skin especially because I know the struggle of finding the right product for your skin. My skin has been struggling lately so these two are really helping me in recovering my skin damage and with the skin texture and dark spots.



OVERALL THOUGHTS 


About the skin texture, these two definitely works great, my skin feels smooth and supple. These both help in fading my dark spots and hydrating the skin.
I will definitely recommend it if you are looking for vitamin c containing products and especially for sensitive skin.


UPDATE

So I raved about the toner a lot in my review but as I keep on using it, I came to see the con of the toner which is that you have to use it in 2-3 months even if you store it in a cold place it oxidize quickly. I will only recommend it if you are going to use it as masking or on a daily basis. On the other hand, the serum does not oxidize as quickly as the toner and works pretty well if you use it twice as a day for actual results.

You can get Some by mi toner and Vitamin C serum from Yesstyle. (use my code: AMKBEAUTY to get an extra discount)
