5 experts · Moderate agreementWhat the gurus are saying
The encapsulated Madecassoside capsules dissolve instantly despite an initial tactile feel, spreading easily with no tackiness. Gurus praise the high active concentration (77% centella plus tranexamic acid, vitamin C, and niacinamide) and exceptional value at £15 for 100ml. That's a six-month supply. Some ingredients have irritating potential. Those on tretinoin may prefer morning use, but it's gentle enough to layer or use twice daily.
