- Welcome to "Five People Try,"
where five people try one product
to see whether it's any good for you.
(upbeat music)
- Today we'll be trying the Alpha-H Vitamin Discovery Kit.
(upbeat music)
- The Alpha-H is an Australian brand
that is probably most notably known
for Liquid Gold as its product.
- I love their Liquid Gold, so does everyone else.
I love their Midnight Reboot.
- Big fan of the Liquid Gold
and the Melting Moments Cleansing Balm.
- The Beauty Sleep Power Peel
is my number one favourite product of all time.
- I've used the the sunscreen moisturiser.
- Alpha-H is one of my favourite brands.
Very much vegan, cruelty-free,
100% Australian-owned.
- We have a video here
where we dive into a little bit more about Alpha-H.
(gentle music)
- So in this kit, you get four vitamin serums.
You get vitamin A, vitamin B, vitamin C, and vitamin E.
- So I definitely saw results
and I've been using this for quite a few weeks.
- My skin felt a lot more hydrated.
- They're really gentle on your skin.
They're very creamy and very light textured.
- They were light, they were hydrating on the skin
and they absorbed really quickly, as well.
- They are quite serumy,
which I really, really love,
'cause I feel like that when you press it into the skin,
you can really feel it absorbing into the skin.
- I just thought yeah,
it was a really good kind of cover-all skincare routine,
to be honest.
- Suitable for everyone.
For oily skin types or dry skin types,
I don't see where you can go wrong.
- And added bonus, it just looks super, super cute
in your bathroom with these pastel colours.
(gentle music)
So vitamin A is really good for fine lines,
oiliness, and actually smoothing the texture
and tone of your skin.
- Vitamin A was something that I was really excited about,
because I do love Alpha-H's Midnight Reboot.
This one's a bit more gentle,
it has 0.5% vitamin A if I remember correctly.
Quite hydrating, which I'm really surprised about.
- If I use like, exfoliants or something,
I get like, sensitivity around here.
- I do use a stronger version, this is like a 0.5.
I do use a stronger one,
so this is good for like a entry or mid-level user.
(gentle music)
- So vitamin B is niacinamide,
so my understanding of that is it's really good
for helping take down acne
and just kind of do a bit of a refresher for your skin.
And vitamin B is really good for like, calming
and like, repairing your skin.
- At the end of the day or the next morning after using it,
you'd feel the elasticity.
- So the smell kinda does smell
a little bit hammy or something,
but I kind of find that if it smells bad,
it must be really, really good.
- Deli meats and ham.
I think it's the copper peptides in it.
And it's blue, which I was really surprised about,
the actual serum itself is blue.
(gentle music)
- So vitamin C helps to boost
and brighten maybe sun damaged skin
and helps to stop premature ageing, as well.
- I just thought yeah, like the vitamin C
was a really, really good vitamin C
that kind of gave you that luminosity
and brightness that you generally get.
- 'Cause I've noticed a bit of pigmentation in my skin
has brightened a lot.
- Well, I expected the vitamin C
to smell like deli meats and ham,
because my beautiful C E Ferulic smells like deli meat.
But to my surprise, no smell.
I quite like this one, it's nice and gentle.
- The first time I used vitamin C with C E Ferulic,
within two weeks you're like, "My skin looks great."
Swapping over to the Alpha-H vitamin C,
I didn't really notice a major difference switching.
I think the price difference is quite different,
so that was a nice little positive.
(gentle music)
- Vitamin E just hydrates and soothes the skin.
It's really good for protecting your skin's barrier,
moisturising it, nourishing it,
all that good stuff.
- So the vitamin E is really, really hydrating,
because it's got 1% Ceramide Complex.
- I really quite liked the vitamin E,
which was like a really nice moisturising,
so anytime my skin felt kind of on the drier side
or I felt like, you know,
I just need a little bit of opulence,
I would use that at night.
- I will literally like, feel my skin without makeup on.
I'm like, oh, it just feels so soft and pillowy.
And it didn't really feel like that before.
- If I put it on the night before, like the next day,
my skin would be like, I don't know what it is,
it's not clearer, but it's more like, just healthy.
- I was really pleasantly surprised with the hydration
and nourishment that it gave my skin.
- This one really is great for dry or flaky,
so very good in the wintertime if you're really dehydrated
and you just need that added extra hydration.
(gentle music)
- So the kit goes for $120,
which makes it around $30 per bottle,
which is, I think, a great value,
and I love value.
- I think that is exceptional value,
as the slightly bigger sizes are $80 each.
- It is 100% worth the price.
It's such a good taster kit.
Taster kit, you're not eating them.
- If you travel a lot as well, this is really good,
because they're in such cute little sized bottles.
- I had actually put it to my wishlist
and was meaning to try it,
'cause out of everything that I'd seen,
like, I thought it was quite affordable,
especially for that kind of like, that intro to serums.
- So moving forward, I will definitely be buying,
I think I'll get the full size of C, E and B,
and then I will be looking at a stronger version
of my vitamin A.
