Review (5/5): My skin feels good - not greasy. It's easy to dispense from the bottle. And 2 compliments from friends after using it for 1 week
I bought this to begin (and win!) the fight against the wrinkles that are appearing around my eyes (crow's feet). I guess the best solution is not to laugh, but then what fun would life be...
What is Hyaluronic acid? According to WebMD, "Hyaluronic acid works by acting as a cushion and lubricant in the joints and other tissues. In addition, it might affect the way the body responds to injury."
(+) Does it work? I've used the Hyaluronic serum every night for a week now. Not sure if I can say 100% that I have noticed no fine lines around my eyes, but I've had 2 friends remark that my skin is looking great. As we women know, that's a good endorsement right there.
(+) Texture: As you can see in the photo, the Derma-nu serum is a clear, slightly viscous consistency that goes on clear. You can feel it on your skin for quite a few minutes afterwards. It does NOT leave your skin feeling greasy (big pet peeve of mine) when you wake up in the morning.
(+) Smell: This is not a scented beauty product. There is a very slight almost medicinal scent - that's the best way to describe it. It is not unpleasant, it is extremely mild, but it smells like it has some ingredients that 'have a purpose', vs. beauty products that have fragrances added.
(+) Packaging and ease of use: The pump is well made - it dispenses a small amount of serum, which I am finding is enough for applying to the corners of both eyes. I'm having to "prime" the pump about 2-3 times before it dispenses the serum, so be careful, you don't want to double pump the serum unless you are OK putting possibly 2x the amount on your face than you might have intended.
(+) A little goes a long way. I travel a lot, so the compact bottle and efficient dispensing from the pump are bonuses for me.
(/) Organic. The bottle indicates that 72% of the ingredients are organic. It doesn't clarify which of the ingredients are/are not organic. It would be nice to see this get to 100%.
Bottom line: So far, my skin has felt good, I've had a few compliments, and I'm pleased with the way Derma-nu packaged the Hyaluronic serum so that it is easy to dispense.
