Power and Performance
For over 50 years, the NAD brand has been synonymous with performance and value, and the C 389 HybridDigital DAC Amplifier continues that tradition. Its output stage is based on a customized version of NAD’s efficient HybridDigital UcD design, with multiple UcD amplifier modules in balanced bridged configuration and an innovative switch-mode power supply that provides ample reserves of current on demand. The C 389 can deliver a staggering 130W per channel continuously, with virtually unmeasurable distortion and noise through the audioband, and up to 350W per channel of instantaneous power, for effortless reproduction of musical transients.

The digital section features the same 32-bit/384kHz ESS Technology Sabre DAC chip used in NAD’s award-winning Masters M33 amplifier. Renowned for its exceptionally wide dynamic range, ultra-low noise and distortion, and near-zero levels of clock jitter, the ESS Sabre 9028 DAC enables the C 389 to deliver astonishing clarity and near-holographic imaging on all sources.

Dark coloring but very streaky and stains easily.
Color: Medium Glow
While it does darken the skin one has to be VERY careful when putting it on. It does stain and it is very streaky and it does stink after wearing it a while so the smell is rather yucky and they advertise that it is not. I had streaks everywhere and unevenness so I ended up ordering a glove to apply it with hoping that will do a better job. I have not tried it yet but am probably going to return one of the 2 bottles I received and hope for a partial refund.

Helped Tighten My Skin & Minimize Pores
Color: Cyano Pink Spicule, Color: Cyano Pink Spicule
I’ve loved the Dr. Melaxin Cyano Pink Spicule Serum! The bottle is small, but it lasted me around 6 months since I only use one pump every other night. When I first started using it, I noticed a tingling sensation, but over time my skin adjusted and I barely notice it now. I’ve definitely seen my pores appear smaller and my skin feels tighter and smoother after using it.

Great for pore reduction
Color: Cyano Pink Spicule
This product works great!! it almost feels like an exfoliator. It reduced the pours on my nose, which were very big and now you can barely see them. I would recommend this product if you have large pores also make skin look firmer and smoother more for a night cream though.
