A couple of weeks back I attended an Optiphi event in Joburg for the launch of their Classic Hydration Therapy, Intense HA Serum and Intense Retinol Serum. All three skincare products are ideal for anti-ageing skin care. We received a bottle of the HA Serum and the Intense Retinol Serum to test out, which I’ve been using for little over a month now and am loving the results!
