Review: Lioele Active Therapy Ampoule (Brightening) 20ml

Lately, I've been loving Lioele products, not only because of its cute packaging but also because of the results I get from the products. For the past year I've been using the Lioele Triple the Solution BB cream, although it came out of the tube rather thick, it provided me with nice medium to full coverage (without feeling cakey and heavy, a little goes a long way with this one) plus it had a matte finish, which was great for the hot summers we get here.

So now I've opted to get another Lioele product: The Lioele Active Therapy Ampoule in the brightening formula. My skin tends to be oily, with occasional breakouts. When I was 16, however, I had major acne (I'm not afraid to admit it.) it covered my whole entire forehead and it didn't make me feel pretty. I am now 21, hoping that I am acne-free. I mean, some days I would get a gazillion breakouts and I fear that the acne is back, but they tend to go away rather quickly. Anyhow, so due to past acne and scarring I've decided to try out this ampoule in the brightening/whitening formula.

First of all, what is an ampoule? I've certainly never heard of it before in Western skincare and I've worked in Cosmetics at a drug store before.

Ampoule is sort of an equivalent to a serum, it has loads amount of good stuff packed inside a tiny air tight bottle.

According to Skin-Spa.com. "Ampoules are typically small, glass containers that are filled with a concentration of highly active ingredients. Ampoules usually contain botanical extracts, vitamins, and enzymes in various combinations and do not have any preservatives or chemicals due to the airtight packaging."
 
When I was a teen, I never used any serums or anything that was too concentrated because I figured the formulas would be too rich, and too strong for my acne prone/oily skin. It would end up clogging my skin instead of helping it. So now that my acne has subsided I decided, why not try?

I learned that ampoules can have remarkable effects on hyper-pigmentation and of course the big one: aging.

As for my experience, I started using the ampoule consistently every night since I got the product which was about 3 weeks ago. I first applied the ampoule after I cleansed and toned my face. The results where I can see the most improvement is on the corners of my mouth where I had darker skin.On my forehead where I had past acne scars also seemed to have lightened up. However, on my forehead area I had applied the ampoule and used it in conjunction with Vita-K's Solution Professional Acne Scars lotion.

I'm pretty happy with the results and impressed at how quick it seemed to have worked. It has brightened up my skin, but only subtly. The Lioele Brightening Ampoule smells pretty decent it has a slight sticky feel to it after it is applied to the skin, however after you apply moisturizer, the stickiness goes away. I found using the ampoule in combination with a moisturizer makes the skin a more supple and smooth the next day.

In the end, I will re-purchase this product again. :) I bought this product from KeautyStore.com
