No filter needed! I literally woke up like this! I started using the Yelle Awakening system in December because my face felt and looked depleted and just dull. I couldn’t find a system with a cleanser that didn’t dry my skin out, a toner that didn’t give me a rash, or a moisturizer that would hydrate my skin without making my face oily until I tried the Yelle skincare line. The dark spots-bags under my eyes have improved and my skin feels clean, soft, and supple.
