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.

I use this daily, typically with Niacinamide 10% and Natural Moisturizing Factors, and at night with a retinol added to the mix. I add some other products on occasion (Vit. C, Multi-Peptide + Copper Peptide), but always use this. Nothing has made my skin look so good. I have been out for a few weeks and I notice a dramatic difference in how my skin looks and feels. This combo leaves me with glassy, smooth, hydrated, and hormonal acne-free skin. I will never let myself run out again!

I have very dry, dehydrated skin and a rough flakey patch on my face that shows up every winter. This product really keeps it at bay. I use it after cleansing, before moisturizing. I also only need about half as much moisturizer when I use this.

I bought this yesterday and I already see a difference. It put my full dry skin back to life . I also immediately seen a reduction of wrinkles around my mouth the next morning when putting this on my face before bedtime. For my best results I put the serum on then use an aveeno lotion on top. Perfect pair !
