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 ...

I received the Herbivore Bakuchiol body serum in exchange for review. I like the idea of a retinol alternative for the body but I'm sure consistent use would show more results over time. So far though I really enjoy the consistency and feel of the serum, plus the luxury feel of the packaging is a nice touch.

Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend to a friend

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!

Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend to a friend

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