We knew Aroma-Zone for its essential oils, its raw assets, its homemade DIY. But recently, the brand ventures in a new direction: that of ready-to-use care, and more technical. Latest from the range? A concentrated serum with vegetable salicylic acid 2 % And Zinc pcasold as an ally of imperfection skins. A product highly anticipated by minimalist and natural cosmetics fans.
Presented as a “soft but purifying” treatment, this serum targets a clear target: mixed with oily skins, subjects with shine, dilated pores and eruptions. The objective: to refine the skin texture, regulate sebum production and soothe imperfections. An attractive promise on paper … But what is it really worth on the skin?
A duo of powerful active ingredients, but plants
First peculiarity of this serum: its active base. Unlike brands like The Ordinary who bet on synthetic acids, Aromazone offers here a Salicylic acid of vegetable originextract from gaulthery or birch. An assumed choice to remain faithful to its natural DNA.
The other star of the formula is the Zinc pcawell known for its seborous and antibacterial properties. This active duo acts in synergy:
-
Salicylic acid penetrates the pores to disobey them in depth.
-
Zinc limits the bacterial proliferation responsible for the buttons.
All in a base formulated without perfume, silicone, alcohol -free, to respect sensitive skin. An approach that contrasts with the aggressiveness of certain traditional anti-acne care.
Another notable point: the pH has been adjusted to guarantee optimal efficiency without compromising skin tolerance. This serum is used to usable morning and evening, even in summer, provided you always apply a SPF during the day.
Real efficiency or natural placebo effect?
On the results side, does the product hold its promises? According to the first user feedback published on the Aroma-Zone site, The effects are visible in less than two weeks In skin subject to shine and small inflammation pimples.
This serum will not suit everyone. On an already sensitized skin or in full push of severe acne, the action can be too slow, even insufficient. Above all, it remains a maintenance treatment, to be integrated into a global routine.
Another point of vigilance: salicylic acid, even vegetable, can cause reactions in reactive skin. It is therefore recommended to start with an application every other evening, to test tolerance.
A real shift for Aromazone in technical care
By launching this serum, Aroma-Zone crosses a course. Far from homemade recipes or diluting assets, the brand offers here a ready -to -use targeted carewith a neat galenic, a hygienic pump bottle, and a concentration of assets worthy of a drugstore.
The price, $ 6.95 for 30 ml, remains in the accessible DNA of the brand. This positioning appeals to a young clientele, sensitive to natural but demanding formulations on efficiency. The sleek packaging, the explicit name, the targeted promise: everything is designed to compete with the best-sellers of the beauty department without falling into ultra-marketing.
It remains to be seen if Aroma-Zone will continue on this path, by developing a full range of expert care. This serum, in any case, seems to lay the first stones of a new strategic turn for the brand, without denying its roots.
