    Amazing!!!

    I have been using this serum for a few years and I have loved it from the first application.

    I have very sensitive skin and it is perfect for me!

    It is very hydrating and makes my face look so smooth and youthful.

    Gentle yet effective

    Made my skin clearer and smoother. Mildly drying but did not make me red or super sensitive, I’m able to use it daily without any issues. A great retinol alternative.

    Sensitive skin

    I have horribly sensitive skin. Almost everything I’ve tried give me itchy red dry patches after about a week of use. This did not!!! It’s been 2-1/2 weeks of everyday use. My skin looks great. I’m 38 and my forehead has some lines, this has helped! Will reorder!!!
