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...

A must have for dry and mature skin

I've used this for a while and I am going back for more. I only need two drops for application. I used it before anything else with the exception of vitamin c, I would use it after that and I'd wait a bit. I find it helps my moisturiser work better for me and my skin looks like it has more glow.
Incredible!

This was my first purchase from the ordinary and honestly didn't know what to expect. I'm mid 30s, have extremely fair skin with brown freckles and most of the time my skin looks very dull and meh. After a week of this serum my skin has never looked better! Not only is it more hydrated and smooth, it makes my skin look really healthy and is fabulous under makeup. I have now even got my husband using it and he loves it aswell. I highly recommend this product.
A staple for my 45 year old dry skin

Experimenting a lot with Deciem products but this is the only product that I am never without. Hydrates really well, and I haven't felt any stickiness that some mentioned - though I don't wait for it to dry completely before layering the rest of my routine (usually vitamin c of some sort, squalane and moisturizer)
Help please

I love how this keeps my skin hydrated but I get milia or tiny bumps on my face because of it. I know it's this product that's causing it. Every time I stopped it went away and every time I started using it, it unfortunately came back. Anybody have any advice if you went through something similar? I use about 4 drops on damp face. If nothing works, I'll use it on my body so it doesn't go to waste. I'm also looking for an alternative with the same properties.
I dilute because it tingles
This has been tingling when I use and it says to dilute in cream or serum on the back if it's a bit to much so I rather than use it first on bare skin, I apply it after my cocokind ceramide serum and before my cicaplast balm and finish off with tret. It's basically water consistency. Not sure if it has helped my hydration as I bought it specifically for the 5% panthenol. The combination I mentioned above has worked wonderfully well however and I may take a break after I finish the bottle to see if I notice a difference.

How do you layer this if we use multiple serums? How does it pair with Glycolic acid creams, retinol, Vitamin C and hyaluronic acids?
- Asked by Judy
