Pleasantly surprised by its hydration level
What I love: -The glass container: it's sleek and gives a clean appearance on my vanity. (I also had it in my bathroom for the first week to use right after my nightly shower.) -Bottle Pump: it's an important feature for a product like this, to be able to control the amount dispensed. Plus, it's ...

Interesting new product for me
Thanks Herbivore for the free BAKUCHIOL Retinol Alternative Body Serum! This was my first time trying a body serum of any kind. I liked the packaging and the scent as well as the idea of a retinol alternative for my skin. I have used this for 2 weeks on my neck and chest and haven't noticed any age...

I've been using this for a few weeks now and its a very easy, straightforward application. I use it at night a few times a week. I have noticed that my skin feels a lot softer. As for appearance, I really haven't seen a big change in my skins appearance.
Silky Serum for Body

I received a free sample of Bakuchiol Retinol Alternative Body Serum from Herbivore to try. Here is my experience using Bakuchiol. The product comes in a sturdy glass bottle with a pump. I find this to be a plus, as many active ingredients in skincare do not keep their potency if they are bottled in plastic. The product is lightweight with a silky texture that absorbs quickly into the skin, leaving no greasy or sticky feeling. Right away, my skin felt softer. I liked that it was so lightweight I could layer a heavier cream over some of my drier, rougher spots (i.e., elbows and knees.) The scent was pleasant and not overpowering, which was a plus for me. I am sensitive to smell and I can not stand a product that is overperfumed. The Bakuchiol had a lovey light scent that smelled like faint grape and blossom. The scent did not linger long either, making it a refreshing experience that didn't leave your nightclothes and bedding perfumed the next morning. Other retinol-type products I have tried have left a chemical smell behind, so a big plus for this retinol alternative! I am enjoying this product so much that I will keep it as part of my nighttime body routine moving forward. My skin just loves it. Definitely recommend!

Love this product. It's thin but very moisturizing, it feels lightweight on my skin and smells so good.

Has a light, fresh scent that goes on smooth. I find it to be a great alternative if you are sensitive to retinols, it doesn't make me peel. It could double as a great make up primer!
I love it
