Brilio.net - Body serum is a skin care product that is increasingly popular thanks to its benefits in making skin look bright and moisturized. In contrast to body lotion or body cream, body serum usually has a higher concentration of active ingredients and a lighter formulation.
One of the main advantages of body serum is its ability to provide more optimal hydration. It's not surprising that many body serums contain ingredients such as hyaluronic acid, ceramides, or glycerin, which are known to be effective in attracting and locking moisture in the skin.
These various ingredients can keep skin soft, smooth and hydrated throughout the day, as well as improve the appearance of dry and dull skin. Because of these benefits, currently many skincare brands are competing to create body serums with various claims and ingredients. In fact, quite a few only sell their products at pocket-friendly prices.
As recently went viral on TikTok social media, the Grace And Glow SPF 30 PA+++ body serum is claimed to be anti-fade even when sprayed with water. So, to prove this claim, a beauty enthusiast, via his personal TikTok account @andreaslukita_, reviewed the viral body serum product. For around 40 thousand, is it worth it or not?
Through the upload, which lasted 2 minutes and 11 seconds, the account owner, known as Andreas, began applying the body serum from Grace And Glow to the skin of his hands. According to him, this product provides a slight tone up effect, which makes the skin on his hands look a level brighter.
"I can't say that it increases the dull skin tone that was like the old whitening lotions," said Andreas, as reported by briliobeauty.net from the TikTok account @andreaslukita_, Monday (29/7).
Not only that, Andreas also tested whether the body serum from Grace And Glow would give yellow stains to clothes. After waiting for half an hour, the product did not leave any yellow stains at all.
Next, Andreas tested the waterproof capabilities of the body serum product, by spraying water on his hands that had been applied with Grace and Glow Body Serum SPF 30 PA+++. After that, Andreas rubbed it to prove his claim. As a result, the product faded a little, but when checked using a UV Camera, its UV Protection capability remained and did not fade.
"It does fade a little, because it's really a body serum, my dear. It's not a tone up cream that claims to be waterproof. The UV protection is still perfect, I think," continued Andreas.
Not only that, Andreas also tried applying the body serum on his father's hands, to prove that the product would not have a gray effect if used by those with brown skin.
Apart from that, when I put the tissue on the skin that had used the Grace And Glow product, it turned out that the tissue didn't stick. The sign is that the body serum does not have a sticky effect on the skin.
