I've used this product for a year or two. Works ok. The big problem I have with this product is every once in awhile I will get a bottle that the pump doesn't work. The pump sticks. You need to push it hard and then you get three times more than you need in your hand. I've tried running the pump under hot water and nothing works. At $50 a bottle you don't need to waste it like that.

My fiancé is so put off by ny insistence of creating a skin care regimen for him but once I put this serum on him he is all about it! He loves how lightweight it is and how it makes his skin feel. He is glowing after application. Now if I can just help him remember to put it on every night!

Genuinely live the feel and smell of this product. I noticed several reviewers mentioned greasiness. Either a) my definition of greasy is different than theirs or b) their skin is greasy to begin with and no serum is going to help with that. I have no doubt there has been some dispenser issues, mine worked fine though. I noticed the difference in my skin after about a week of twice daily use. Cleaner looking, better tone and color, fuller under the eyes and just more youthful and vibrant. Can't speak personally of dark circles as I had none to begin with. The only reason for the 4 stars is the price and to be fair it's on par with other brands in the same genre but works better.

I previously was using the powerful line reducing serum with vitamin c and hyaluronic acid for close to 3 months and never truly felt it was helping my skin and it would always tend to feel greasy on my skin even in such small amounts. I just switched to this Age Defender Power Serum for about a month now and am much happier! I love the scent and it is very light weight feeling which is important to me having more oily skin than normal. It doesn't feel pore clogging and is ease to spread and only really need one small pump for full coverage of my face and neck area. It is not greasy and does not leave that feeling like there is a film or coating on your face. I also like that I feel a slight tingle when putting it on.....so great! This combined with the Age Defender Eye Repair Cream works awesome! I also use the Midnight Recovery Oil at night for a little extra something and also use the Ginger Hibiscus mask a couple nights a week as well, too.

I have used the sample I received for 4 days so far. I have not noticed anything related to apparent tightening of my skin. Hence, no "age defending" effects as far as I can notice. Perhaps there is a difference that may be detected with appropriate scientific equipment. However, I can confidently report that the product acts as a moisturizer.
