Review (5/5): Serum Hydrates and Repairs Dry and Irritated Skin
From the female of the family: this is a relatively expensive product, and the write-up is technical, so you do want to know it works, right? It does, at least for me. I'm careful to treat my facial skin with care and good products, and while I know you cannot really stop the aging process, you can both plump up and repair dry and irritated skin.
This product does all of that. It contains some things you've probably heard about -- reservatrol, which does help rejuvenate, a concentration of an ingredient found in red wine, something of a miracle product in itself. Then there's hempseed oil which calms irritated skin and St. John's Wort, a venerable ingredient know as well to sooth and heal.
I wash my hands well, then my face and pat it dry. I drip a little serum in my palm (not touching the dropper so I don't contaminate the product in the jar), dip in lightly with the tips of the fingers of my other hand, and lightly massage it over my face. A little goes a long way, so don't overuse it.
I don't use a lot of makeup, so the problems some others had with the combination doesn't bother me. Nor do I find it too sticky -- again, don't lay it on thick.
Here's the full list of ingredients: Water, Glycerin, Pentylene glycol, Niacinamide, Centella asiatica extract, N-Palmitoyl serinol (Neuromide), Bifida ferment lysate, Acetyl glucosamine, Phytosterols, Cannabis sativa seed oil, Allantoin, Panthenol, Sodium hyaluronate, Sialyllactose, Hypericum perforatum flower extract (St.John's wort), Carbomer, Adenosine, Ceramide NP, Resveratrol, Heptasodium hexacarboxymethyl dipeptide-12, Glyceryl acrylate/Acrylic acid copolymer, 1,2-Hexanediol, Polyglyceryl-10 distearate, Glyceryl stearate, Caprylic/Capric triglyceride, Sorbitan stearate, Stearic acid, Glyceryl Caprylate.
I like the results a lot, and the highest praise I can give is, I'll be ordering again.
