Hi, I've been using the ampoule for 3 or 4 years, have had quite a few backups. Always ordered at stylevana, never any problems

My skin loved it.

Earlier this month I opened a new bottle (ordered 12/25) used it a few days and noticed a faint smell, can hardly describe it.

My skin got worse, irritated, more texture, red spots, pimples.

Mostly cheeks/nose area and overall it's a lot drier.

And my skin seemed to be a bit more sensitive.

I have changed nothing but a new tube of sunscreen (Skin1004 Hyalu Cica) 2 weeks before.

Stopped using the ampoule after using it on/off on Friday and haven't used sunscreen (started against today) over the weekend.

Skin calmed down a bit but it's noticeable drier

Now I'm wondering has the formula of the Centella Ampoule changed?

The glass bottle & dropper looked a bit differently so they definitely changed at least that between my last backup and these new ones.

It matches pictures on the official site nothing suggests a fake.

Was it stored badly by Stylevana?

Shipping problems? Too hot/too cold?

I opened another from my April order and it had the same faint smell.

Different batches, same problem.

Has anyone here experienced problems with the ampoule?

I'm a bit afraid to order again.

Any ideas?

How should I proceed to get my skin back to normal?

Any alternatives to the Ampoule with similar minimal ingredients?

Thank you.
