Review (5/5): Light & effective
This serum goes on nice and lightly without leaving a sticky or oily feeling residue, which is an issue I've had with other serums I've tried. It's a thick liquid that's easy to apply with the included dropper, and it dries quickly to a clean-feeling finish.
It's a little too early to make any statements on wrinkle reduction since I just started using this serum about a week ago, but it does seem to have calmed down my skin. I haven't noticed any new zits or blemishes on my face, when before I would usually get one every other day or so. I think the retinol is helping my skin cells to refresh themselves more quickly, preventing bacteria from being able to take hold. The hyaluronic acid component of the serum also seems to be helping with my complexion-- I'm noticing less flaky dry areas around my eyebrows and chin that I used to have problems with, especially in dry weather and winter conditions. My face overall seems to be more moisturized and even in tone, as well as less oily along my T-zone. My pores also seem to be less prominent and I've been able to get away with less makeup on my skin during the day.
Overall, I'm very satisfied! This product seems to do the job of keeping my facial skin and complexion balanced and healthy.
