Hi everyone, I’m Dr. Achel Pant and today I’ll be reviewing products from the brand PhD proven honest derma. This brand makes sciencebacked products which are formulated by dermatologists. I’ve been hearing a lot about this so I thought I’ll review all the products today. I have five products of theirs to review. So let’s get started. First is the 10% nyinamide spot correcting serum. This contains 10% nyioinamide, 2% nacetyl glucosamine, sentella and 1% alpha albutin. So this product claims to lighten dark spots. If you have acne and acne spots, those tend to fade away.

I like how lightweight the formula is. Sometimes nyinomite can feel a little sticky but this one is very waterlike, very easy spreadability, easy to use, does not feel oily or sticky on the skin. The presence of an acetyl glucosamine makes this um really nice on the skin moisturizing and also instantly gives the skin a plump up effect.

So overall this serum will suit those with oily acne prone skin, oily sensitive skin and those looking to fade dark spots. Also it can be helpful in reducing open pores. Second serum is the PhD 2% alpha arbutin deeppigmentation serum. This serum contains 2% alpha arbutin tyrobrite along with tripeptides. So the benefits of the serum is that it targets dark spots. If you have sun spots, if you have tanning, uneven skin tone, then also this serum can help presence of tripeptides, helps in moisturizing, hydrating the skin and also stimulating collagen production. So let’s start with the texture. It has a clear watery serum which spreads easily. Does not have any sticky residue. It sits well under your SPF. Alpha arbutin is a good ingredient.

This moisturizer helps in brightening the skin, makes the skin tone more even. It gives that antioxidant protection to the skin. It boosts collagen synthesis in the skin, reduces the appearance of early signs of aging and overall improves the quality of skin. So we’ll talk about the texture.
