Like everyone else, I hate getting acne but something that I dislike more than acne is the scars they leave behind. Acne is usually gone in a few days but the scars take months or years to completely disappear especially back and shoulder acne or body acne scars. I found something that actually helps a lot in speeding up the process of lightening the scars. The Imiana House Rosehip and Argan Serum is truly a life saviour in this case.

My Experience: I have been using this serum daily for the past two weeks. I used it on my face for pigmentation and shoulders for acne scars. This serum didn’t break me out or made my skin oily. It absorbed within seconds and didn’t leave any greasiness or heaviness behind. It helped with evening out my skin. The slight pigmentation I had on my face is almost gone it’s hardly even noticeable anymore.
Though I love it more because of what it did for the acne scars on my shoulders. They were recent scars and were almost black in nature, very prominent as well. I used this serum religiously and I could see them lightening. At first, I thought it was wishful thinking but I soon realized my eyes weren’t playing a trick on me. The scars are almost light brown now. They aren’t completely gone but have lightened up a lot thanks to this serum. I’m going to keep using it until they are completely gone.
Pros:
- Comes in an Apothecary bottle
- Two drops are enough to cover the whole face so definitely value for money
- Even though it’s an oil-based serum it’s surprisingly non-greasy
- It didn’t break me out
- It works great on lightening scars
Cons:
- It is a little pricey but definitely worth it.
Will I Repurchase: Probably. I’d love to buy it again but something tells me I might not need to.
Do I Recommend: Yes, if you are looking for something to help with acne scars do give this a try
Overall summary: 5/5 It’s a good serum to help with acne scars and pigmentation. The Ingredients present in it makes it really effective.
