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...

Really repairs the moisture barrier
Verified Buyer

I had really badly chapped lips (including the skin all around my mouth) that did not go away for two months even though I tried every lip balm and skin healing ointment I could think of. I started using this and two weeks later my chapped lips were completely healed and my skin's moisture barrier was back to normal. The first time I used it, my chapped lips improved visibly overnight. I absolutely love this product!

I find it too liquid to put where I want it, and I have found the HA moisturizer much more powerful.
Hydrating and soothing
Verified Reviewer

Bought this 4 months ago and am really impressed with the results. At first, I used a little too sparingly, but after watching a video explaining its benefits, I decided to be a little more generous with the amount used (after all, it's not expensive at all). And boy, what a difference! My skin feels very smooth and hydrated, my dry patches are gone and the redness and irritation are very soothed. I found that this even had healing properties. And I truly find that this helps me to compensate for the effects for some stronger products I use (acids and retinol). I use this at night before moisturizer.
Love it

I recently try to avoid hyalouronic acid (which is hard to do using Deciem products) and therefore tried this. The texture is lovely to use before or mixed with moisturizer and it's really smoothing and hydrating. Will repurchase.

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