review: Amarte Aqua Veil Pure Hydrating Serum

Amarte Aqua Veil Pure Hydrating Serum is my new must-have product! in fact, i really don't even know how i ever lived without this amazing serum.

how can i begin to describe it? i could describe it as a gel that transforms into water as it touches the skin, but to be as technical as possible, it's a humectant. not a serum or a moisturizer, but a hydrator. it attracts water to the skin helping to keep it in balance.

it's great for dry skin seeking extra moisture, and it's fabulous for oily skin as well because it doesn't add extra oil. it can be used along with your regular moisturizer and skin will love it!

i know my skin has appreciated the extra dose of water. i do have oily skin, but it's prone to being dehydrated because i live in socal (and if you're wondering, yes it is possible for oily skin to be dehydrated--it is more common than you think) where the air is really dry.

another thing that also has me hooked is it's fabulous smell! the instant i squeezed a portion out onto my fingers the sweet cucumber scent caught my attention-- love it!! it is so intoxicating, i was hooked the first time i used it!

the refreshed feeling my skin is left feeling each time i use it keeps me eager to use it again. this "magic water", as it's referred to in korea, is now becoming more well-known here in the states thanks to Beautyfix.
