Pleasantly surprised by its hydration level
What I love: -The glass container: it's sleek and gives a clean appearance on my vanity.

I've been using this body serum for a couple weeks and I really like it. It smells amazing. I love its very subtle rose scent. This body serum applies easily and absorbs quickly leaving my skin feeling refreshed and hydrated. I've had no issues with skin irritation and it has overall been great for my sensitive skin.
Love this serum!

This serum is absolutely great! I have been using this for a few weeks now and can attest that it really works. I have KP on my arms and a bit of backne, and this really helped with the marks. The marks have lightened a bit and hopefully with consistent use they will lighten even more. It is a very fluid serum consistency that spreads very easily, so a little goes a long way. The fragrance is pretty nuanced, with subtle hints of spice and cut flowers (might be the rosehip in there). It is not very moisturizing, but that is to be expected because that is not what it claims to do. However, since it is a retinol (albeit alternative), I really recommend topping this with a layer of good moisturizing lotion.

I have been using the Herbivore Bakuchiol Retinol Alternative Body Serum every night after by bath for over a week now, and I love how my skin looks and feels in the morning when I wake up. It's a lightweight milky serum that absorbed quickly. My skin feels super smooth and well-hydrated. My skin exudes a moisturized radiance, especially on my arms, legs and chest. This overnight treatment makes a big difference in texture and tone, and I love how it is absorbed so quickly. The heavy glass packaging adds to the super luxurious experience. I am in love with this product and will buy it in the future.
Amazing retinol alternative!!

Thanks to Herbivore for gifting me this body serum to try out! The packaging is a luxe glass bottle, definitely nice enough to display on your vanity or countertop. It's branded as a "body serum" and that's a perfect way to describe it. The texture is like a lightweight body lotion; it's not thick or creamy at all. Although it's thin, it leaves your skin very smooth and moisturized without any greasiness. I noticed my skin staying smooth for longer periods of time as I used it over several days, which I attribute to the retinol alternative (Bakuchiol) in the formula. If the idea of using a retinoid on your body skin is intimidating, definitely give this a try! The only negative for me is that I don't love the scent. It's described as "botanicals and green woods," but the raspberry notes were really unpleasant to my nose. The fragrance does linger, which some people love, but I personally don't.
