Most Helpful Positive Review Bye dull, clogged skin, Hello glowing, soft, even skin! If you are looking for an effective, no nonsense product to give you the skin of a few hundred dollar skin regimen... this is it.I bought this serum because it was on sale and the description sounded so amazing. Ive always had physical exfoliators that you wash off afterwards. I felt like mine wasn't doing a great job so I bought this since all the reviews sounded so positive and it was the BEST decision!!! After one use at night I woke up to much softer, smooth skin. My pores on and around my nose have been large lately and nothing has helped, but this serum has! I'm four days into use and my pores are so tiny (and unblocked). I had multiple small white bumps in my skin and this serum has cleared them all away! I had a really bad acne scar on my jaw, it was discolored, raised and the skin was tough, and I realized today I can hardly see it anymore!!! After 1-2 more uses I believe the scar will be completely gone. And any of my other acne scars have all disappeared! My skin actually has a glow to it which is so huge for me since my skin is always dull. This product was so great I went back on Ulta and bought the Mad Hippie Vitamin C Serum! Im always looking for a better product and it's rare I buy the same thing twice, but I will be a continuous buyer of the Exfoliation Serum, and hopefully of the Vitamin C Serum as well!
Most Helpful Critical Review Am I doing something wrong? Let me start by saying that I am a fan of Mad Hippie and I love their Vitamin C serum. It made a huge difference in the brightness and even-ness of my skin almost immediately. So I decided to try the exfoliating serum as I've got some texture and acne scarring on my chin, and large pores elsewhere. I've been using this serum for 4 weeks, and haven't seen any improvement whatsoever. It doesn't irritate my skin...it doesn't do anything at all. I read all the glowing reviews and can't figure out why it isn't working for me. I feel like I must be doing something wrong, but I don't know what. It's full of great ingredients. Really sad that I'm not seeing the same results as everyone else, I so hoped this would be another hit from Mad Hippie. I guess I'll go back to the Vitamin C serum and keep looking for a better exfoliator :(

I was hesitant to use at first hadn't heard of this. Brand before but I wanted to give a try to something that's was natural and pure of ingredients. Ive tried so many name brand products. So I read up on it and saw so many great reviews and being in my early 40's definitely needed to try something new that would be long lasting. My skin is Oily so I needed products that would help not only that but also aging etc. I reached out to mad hippie and with there suggestions I knew what exactly to purchase, and I have no complaints on there products love love love!
Misleading instructions 3
Marie from Texas
This product clearly states for DAILY use.
Only after doing some research of my own I found you are NOT supposed to use an exfoliating product everyday. After using this I started getting horrible acne around my cheeks and chin that, after 3 weeks of not using it anymore, I still can't get rid of. Just ensure you use this correctly, if at all.
Something that finally works 5
Michele from Undisclosed
I purchased this serum on another website to try. I have sensitive, combination skin. I was totally surprised when it worked. The facial treatments I have been using were not working on pulling the built up daily oil from my face. This serum is easy to put on, quickly dries and when I wake in the morning, my skin is soft and smooth. I will definitely be purchasing more products. If you have coupons, please send them my way!
Product was average 4

Product didn't seem strong enough to deliver results for my 58 year old skin
I love this serum! 5
Young Woman from Michigan
I've been using this every night (which is not recommended by the company btw), but my skin has already shown huge improvement! It's much more smooth and just overall looks better! I ordered the Vitamin C serum as well and have been using that at night, too.
Hyperpigmentation 5
Diane from Undisclosed
This has really helped my skin. I've had a lot of discoloration from playing tennis for decades. So happy I found Mad Hippie
I love this stuff I mean I LOVE it! 5
Ishkotay from Twin Fall, ID
My skin looks fabulous. I love what this has done for me so much I am trying other products by Mad Hippie
So far so good! 4
Sarah from Undisclosed
I was worried about using this after my first application, it gave me a stinging sensation for a few seconds after applying. I read reviews to learn it could be caused by the removal of old skin cells. to be safe I try to use this product every other night. And so far I am happy! It still gives me that quick sting so hopefully it's not something bad. Be cautious if you have sensitive skin.
GREAT!!! 5

This product is amazing!!! ❤
Favorite skincare product 5
Ace from Denver
This is one of my all time favorite skincare products. I use every night and follow up with the moisturizer. It leaves my skin feeling so soft and clean and it's one of the only products I've found that helps clear up and prevent breakouts I tend get on my chin. I wish they offered a larger bottle.
Great exfoliator 5
Kathryn from Undisclosed
I decided to try this serum after a physical exfoliant from a different brand made me break out. I have been waiting to review it until using it consistently for a few months. I really like this serum. I started out using it once a week (again, cautious from my previous bad exfoliation experience) but have worked my way up to using it every 3 days and I have had no adverse effects. I also use the vitamin C serum and I think the two of them together do a lot to brighten my skin--I have gotten noticeably glowier since using them both.
Skin looks and feels better! 4
Maggie from Nashville, TN
I use this product every night and follow it up 10 min after applying with a moisturizer. I noticed the first week that a lot of little bumps I've had on my face forever started coming out (looked worse at first) and then went away. Since they went away I haven't had anything pop up on my skin and it's been spotless and honestly looks amazing. I have mild rosacea and was worried about this drying out my skin, but it hasn't at all!
NEW TO ME GOOD TO ME! 4
katlg from Lilburn, GA
I have been trying over the last several years to find a good skin care line unsuccessfully I might add. My face in my 60's seems to be like my body - going thru so many changes - I'm not too keen on. I've had to go thru pre cancerous treatments on my bottom lip 3 times and still there is a component that makes it angry. My skin has become very sensitive,dry patches in a few places and never know if something will set me on a dash to cold water rinse!. I have read great reviews about Mad Hippie and have started with 2 products. the exfoliating serum has been very gentle to my skin which is great!. Hopefully the line will give me some great results to keep me coming back for more. I still rely on Dermalogica (great sales) when I can get it for sensitive calming too.
Best face products 5
B from Undisclosed
I'm in my late 40s and I've used very expensive products for many years. I recently tried Mad Hippie because I was trying to find more affordable options. I'm sorry I didn't start using them years ago. So much wasted money when I'm getting better results now. My skin is so clear and smooth and it's really evened out my complexion. Zero breakouts, I'm in love!

Great clean product line 5
Mrs. LCW from San Jose
I have used this for a few months and it leaves my skin smooth, no dry patches anymore, no. Clogged pores around my hairline from hair products, the lines on my forehead have softened. Does not burn like some other exfoliating products. Clean line of products.
Yes, yes, yes! 5
Yesi from Undisclosed
I love this serum!! It works extremely well for acne-prone skin - my skin has gotten so much better thanks to the Mad Hippie Exfoliating Serum! I use this every night before bed along with other MH products. This brightens my skin and exfoliates without being to harsh or abrasive on my skin. I also introduced this to my friend. She gets hormonal acne and it helps her out when she gets that random zit during her time of the month.
A true exfoliator 5
Heather from Undisclosed
I find this to be a little bit tingly on my skin, but nothing uncomfortable. It provides the right level of exfoliation to be effective for my skin without being too aggressive. I introduced it into my routine about a year ago, once a week, sometimes twice a week, and sometimes only once every couple of weeks - depending on what my skin needs are. Regardless of the frequency, it really works at sloughing off the outer layer of skin which allows the other products to penetrate more effectively into my skin. I love this brand in general and their products are top notch.
Mad Love for Mad Hippie 5
Kaitlyn from Undisclosed
I can't express enough how much I love this company and these products. I wish I could there was a section for an overall review (I also NEVER write reviews). I have sensitive, oily acne prone skin. The past year my hormonal acne had become the worst it has been in my adult life. In an effort to become clear, I had started seeing a license esthetician who ultimately told me non-toxic, natural products do not work to clear acne. Thankfully I followed my intuition, and started my quest to find non-toxic natural skin care products. I found Mad Hippie, and the first product I tried is the Exfoliating Serum. This serum works wonders, and the pores on my nose and underlip became clean and clear after one use. I have since tried the SPF and Vitamin C Serum, all of which I love, and none of have broken me out. I am SO thankful for an affordable, non-toxic, sustainable brand whose products are TRULY clean.

Lesley from Undisclosed

My skin is so smooth now! 5
Serena from Undisclosed
Over the summer, my skin got very congested. I had small, hard bumps all over my forehead and was constantly breaking out. Since I started using this product about a month ago, all of those bumps on my forehead are gone, and I haven't had any breakouts! Every time I touch my face I am literally amazed that this is my skin. I have never had smooth or clear skin. I am so happy with the results I've seen from this product
Unreal 5
Joy from Undisclosed
I've tried AHAs before but they've never worked for me. I always get some kind of acneic reaction. After talking with the Mad Hippie customer service (who is really helpful BTW - ask them before buying if you have questions!!) she suggested I try this product. It's been one week and my closed comedones are finally gone and my PIE spots are lightening - which usually take months to fade. My skin has never been this smooth, I could cry. I follow with the Mad Hippie Antioxidant Oil. In the morning I use the Vitamin C serum instead. I finally like my own face.
Bright skin, no acne 5
Micah from Undisclosed
My skin is looking bright and I've not had an acne breakout in a month. I've also noticed the wrinkles around my lips are subsiding. All I can say is this product is magic!
Severe reaction 1
Mimi from Undisclosed
I've used other Mad Hippie products, including the Vitamin C serum, eye cream and face cream and like them. Our sales rep recommended this product for dark spots and fine lines and gave me a sample to try. After just one use my face and neck broke out in a bad rash with severe itching and puffy eyes. I discontinued use immediately but it is taking days to clear up; now it's red and rough and peeling. I should stress that I haven't changed my face care routine or my diet - I eat certified organic, don't use household or outdoor chemicals; I'm a certified organic farmer and work in a natural products store that is an authorized Mad Hippie retailer. I'm afraid the glycolic acid is too strong for my sensitive skin.
