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 ...

Love How it Absorbs Into My Skin

I'm picky with body lotions and serums because I don't like them to feel heavy on my skin, and this serum is perfect. The first thing I noticed is how pretty the bottle is. Usually I'll keep these kind of products under the sink or in my medicine cabinet, but I leave this on my countertop because it looks nice. The bottle is easy to pump and dispenses the serum without any mess. It has a very light scent which is very faint but smells nice. The serum absorbs quickly and doesn't feel greasy, and makes my skin feel moisturized. I'm very happy with the results and will continue to use it daily.

This is magic in a purple bottle! I plan on reusing this elegant bottle after I run out because I am absolutely incorporating this Bakuchiol serum into my daily routine. I have nothing bad to say about it. It's a very soft serum that isn't greasy and absorbs incredibly well. I usually have dry hands and eczema on my knuckles, but after applying this on my hands, I haven't had any flare-ups. I've been enjoying it on my hands, arms, and legs after I shower, and it's especially soothing on newly shaved areas. It makes my skin feel very soft all day. Whatever makes this help my skin so well, it's magic.

I've really been enjoying this body serum—it's super lightweight and sinks in fast, and my skin definitely feels smoother and more hydrated. The soft, fruity‑green scent is surprisingly calming and makes my nighttime routine feel a little more special. I'm giving it four stars because the results are more gradual than dramatic, but it's gentle and never irritates my skin. Overall, it's become one of those products I actually look forward to using.

Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend to a friend

I absolutely loved this! The bottle design is clean and beautiful, the scent is super light, and the product itself feels like a light, water-based lotion. It is extremely easy and quick to absorb into skin and left my skin feeling soft and moisturized.

Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend to a friend
