The glycolic acid (AHA) and the “desert rose” ingredients in here are helpful to recover skin from photeodamage, especially the AHA, which is widely recognized as an eraser of many aging-related skin problems. This serum is richly moisturizing too.

However it may not be good to oily and sensitive skins due to some ingredients. See "the Not-So-Good".

squalane is oil derived from shark liver or from plants (usually olives) and sebum. It is a natural component of skin and a natural moisturizing factor that has antioxidant and immune-stimulating properties.
