Most loved serum. Period.
Of all the many serums I have tried from the Ordinary, and any other skincare line, this is without a doubt my favorite. I buy it again and again. I would say the best way to describe the effect this has on my fair, dry, sensitive skin is: strength. My skin feels protected, firm, bouncy, and strong ...

Still on the fence about this product!
I have to give 3 stars to this product because, after using all the content of the bottle over the course of various months, I am still confused about whether I actually liked it or not. For a bit of context: I have dry skin, which can really only take as much in terms of the amount of products I l...

My skin is super sensitive and gets dry in areas of my face. This is a life saver. Leaves my skin soft before applying moisturizer! I use it every morning and night.
Great Hydration

I have combo skin, with dry T-zone. I use it both morning and night. I use Retin-A and applying the amino acids before my retin-A has helped with the sensitivity i get when i use it daily. It doesnt feel tacky at all. Very nice product for me. I tend to get acne whenever i try any new product, this only didnt really affect my skin negatively, just nicely hydrated.
Aggravates sebaceous filaments

This product really does what it claims to do, i.e. hydration. HOWEVER, it saddens me to say that I just found out that it's the culprit for the white, sebaceous threads protruding out of my skin - especially in my T-zone and chin area. It unfortunately aggravates my sebaceous filaments. And it's really bad....I have dark skin, so having 'white hairy-like threads' all over my face isn't pretty. I've had to really up my exfoliating game because of the product. As much as I love TO's hydrators, I think they may be too concentrated. Perhaps, having an option for a diluted version would be more suited for some of us.
Love this hydrator
