Altilis Beauty (

Facial Cleanser* (
link): I really like the airless pump on this cleanser (as well as the whole line from Altilis). It doesn't have a strong scent and doesn't feel oily or too creamy. The consistency is just right and it is easy to wash off the face. I think I prefer this cleanser in the morning or for the days when I wear no makeup. While it removes my makeup, I feel like it doesn't do the best job at it and I want to use something else afterwards. The cleanser feels light on the skin, it doesn't dry it out and doesn't leave any film on the skin.
Serum* (
link): The serum has your typical serum texture that is a bit runny, but not completely watery. It has kukui nut oil, vitamin C and breadfruit among other ingredients. this serum applies to the skin smoothly and absorbs well without leaving any residue. It makes skin very soft. However, there's something in the ingredient list that my nose smells very strongly and it is unpleasant for me. This serum smells like fish oil and I just can't use it. I tried to get used to the scent, but wasn't successful. I'll have to give it to a family member as I can't even repurpose it to use as hand/body serum.
Moisturizer* (
link): The product I enjoy the most is moisturizer. It has a light cream texture, but applies to the skin and sinks in as if it was a very light lotion. It hydrates my skin well all day long without feeling heavy or greasy. It has a mild fragrance and I can barely smell it, so the scent doesn't bother me. This moisturizer feels somewhat basic, but it is great at making skin hydrated, soft and plump. I've never experienced any irritation while using this cream and my skin looks good every time after using it.
