CAUSES INTENSE SKIN PIGMENT ISSUE
Color: #2 ROSE, Color: #2 ROSE
DO NOT BUY UNLESS YOU WANT SPOTTY-BLOTCHY PIGMENT ISSUES! I used the product one time, and got terribly fried/burnt and when the burn healed my skin got very cheetah print spotty blotchy like. Now I am using prescribed cream my dermotologist prescibed to try to heal the pigment issues this product caused. this product is a thick oil, NOT SPF 45-- TRUST ME you do not want this!!! See pictures i'm attaching to this review.
