My fave night time skin product
I LOVE this stuff! I NEVER post reviews so please take my rec and buy the cream!Pros: AMAZING skin texture, it’s helping out my hyperpigmentation and melasma, and keeping breakouts down. When used right, super comfortable to sleep in. I wake up with the plumpest, glowing skin and after a wash and sunscreen, I’m ready for the day! I have sensitive skin and this product does not irritate my skin if used correctly (see tips).Cons: It doesn’t smell that great but not at all bad. It smells like how Vaseline smells but different. It’s also thick but don’t be tempted to use more (see tips).Tips/Advice:1. It WILL itch if you use a lot. Made that mistake one night and washed it off my face within 5 minutes. PEA SIZED AMOUNT or LESS, please heed my warning! It will spread out just fine with the warmth of your face but again, less is more with this product (and will stretch your dollars farther)!2. Don’t use it on a wet face as water, water-based products, and liquid products will make it itch/sting/tingle (this is my experience at least). I use it just before I’m ready to go to bed (it stays on my nightstand) and I apply a little bit before I go to sleep. This is so any products I use at night have time to dry down on my face. It’s my last step in my night time routine. Make sure you wash it off in the morning and USE SUNSCREEN!3. Build up to using it more often. I can comfortably now use it every other night but it took me a whole month to get to a point where I wasn’t worried about any reactions. (I only had one reaction tho and that was my own fault.) With any new skincare product, you SHOULD let your skin acclimate to the ingredients and formulas. This product is definitely controversial in the reviews but don’t let it scare you. Just take the precaution and build up your tolerance for it before wearing it every single night off the bat. It’s really concentrated so again, take your time and only use a pea-sized amount or less. I’m talking a small pea too, or like the size of a peppercorn!Hope this is helpful. I will update with a “before and after” after more time using. I’ve been using it for a month and have already noticed phenomenal difference in my skin. Give it time, build up to using it more often, and wear your sunscreen. I REPEAT, WEAR YOUR SUNSCREEN.

Okay, so I’ve wanted to try this cream for a while (found on TikTok), was finally able to get it. I’m not gon lie… I did experience the burning, BUT I burned when I actually washed my face and applied. The first night I tried it, I was so tired I didn’t even wash my face before applying, I still wanted to see if it would work. That night, it didn’t burn, I went straight to sleep. But the night I actually did my wash routine (which is acne foam wash, it’s salicylic acid. Then I follow up with an acne solution gel, I think it’s like 10% benz. peroxide in it.. I’m sure those products all together (including the A313) caused the burning), I put some on.. it didn’t start burning right away.. but when it did, it wasn’t really a subtle burn, the discomfort level was like a 6 or 7. If it was a 5 or 4, I would’ve went to sleep faster, I’m no stranger to a little facial burning 💀 but this… I was so worried that I got up, soaked a towel in freezing cold water and pat my face. I wanted to wash it again, but I didn’t want to use anymore product annddd I didn’t want to cause anymore friction. After that, I rubbed my face with a block of ice, AND I applied Vaseline, thinking it would help soothe me… it did not. 🙂↔️🙂↔️ I was so scared! I was going to just wash my whole face in cold water to get all the product off, because I know chemical burns actually happen!! However, I convinced myself to just go to sleep. Now, I’m not saying if it’s burning it’s working; do be vigilant.. BUT, I woke up the next morning with WAY LESS texture and spots than I went to sleep with. To prepare for the day, I pat my face with a cold towel and applied my sunscreen, I definitely will continue to use this cream until my problem areas are gone fully. I didn’t think to take a picture because I was SCARED ASF THAT MY FACE WAS GOING TO BURN OFF, but it did not. ✨💅🏽 ✨The cream is worth a try, just watch what you’re using with the cream, you might want to stop the chemicals and acids while you try this. I want to rate this product 5 stars because my skin looked amazing the next day and I didn’t burn before.. so it must’ve been something I did. To be clear, I don’t have devastating hyperpigmentation.. just spots from picking and popping acne 🙄 but these spots are STUBBORN. I think what I’ll do differently next time is either completely tackle one problem at a time (get rid of acne, then focus on hyperpigmentation), or just use my acne wash in the morning and continue to A313 at night, like the product suggests. Will update about any future burning after I change routine around.

I hope you buy this!!!!
My daughter had me buy this I’m 74! Said she had been using it and a friend who went to New York City said women wear it because it works in a different way than a Peel does. Also said it sells out and hard to find. It’s my silent retinol I call it. You simply dot the wrinkles or something you want to go away. It’s kinda thick you need very little. Rub it in. At first I told her it’s not doing anything cause I’m not peeling. She said that’s the point! Duh! Ok then I started liking it! I put that on first then moisturizer over at night. It stays on too.I’ve used so little of it cause it’s not like you squeeze the tube hard. It’s gonna last me several months. Plus they lowered the price!

Will be purchasing again when I run out!
Make sure the writing on the side is in French- I had MAJOR postpartum skin issues after my 3rd child was born... Like 1 year and a half after when I stopped pumping/nursing. I used this AND prosacea (also purchased on Amazon) and my skin has NEVER been clearer! I think the combo works well together and they also work well alone!This is the constancy on Vaseline or petroleum jelly and I use super sparingly. I started with this, it cleared my skin up, but I still had rosasea like color/texture on my cheeks which is why I also purchased prosacea. The two together have been my secret hack to clear skin! Everyone is different so I cant say if it will work for you, but these broke the code to clear skin for me! FINALLY!
