Wanted to love but ruined my skin
I have struggled with hormonal acne for years now, but nothing besides some returning pimples that, looking back, were more of annoyance if anything. Having LOVED Mad Hippie's Vitamin C serum and recieving a sample of this Vitamin A serum within my package, I figured I'd give it a shot and see if th...

Clearer and more radiant skin
Reviewed at
I had a bad breakout a few months ago and this serum has really helped my skin. My skin feels smooth and looks more radiant. I noticed a difference with my skin texture and appearance after just a few days of using this. Its taken it a bit longer to clear up my acne, but after two months of consistent use my acne is so much better, I just had to be a little patient. I havent noticed a significant difference with dark spots yet, but I think after a little longer I will.
Clear skin after 30 years!

I'm 45. I've had to use benzoyl peroxide ever since I was a teen for pimples. I've tried a dozen other acne solutions over the past 30 years, as I hate the way BP stains my towels and sheets. I finally thought I'd give MadHippie products a try - bought the jelly cleanser, Vitamin C serum (day), Vitamin A serum (night), face moisturizer and eye cream. Things got ugly for a few weeks, but I'd read about "retinol purging" and determined to stick with it. Now, 5 weeks in, new pimple emergence is almost down to zero, forehead and cheek texture is smoother, and recent zits are healing and disappearing. I believe over the next week breakouts will stop completely. I am SO HAPPY. I love the way the products smell sweet and fresh just by virtue of their ingredients and not additional fragrances.
So far, so good!
Enjoying the product so far in my rotation of nightly serums!
I've been using this for years and I love it.
Great product.

First of all I'm 76 years young. When I first read the reviews and thought this product is just for the younger set! Boy was I wrong! I've used Super A, the cleanser and Vitamin C and I'm hooked. My skin is great a friend recently said your skin is glowing! Thanks Mad Hippie!!

- Q
Could you describe the viscosity (thickness) of Super A Serum? The serum in the bottle that I purchased is so thick that the dropper is virtually ineffective.
- Asked by Samantha
- Official Answer By Mad HippieThe Super A Serum has a thick, somewhat creamy consistency. This is primarily due to the combo of the three retinols + bakuchiol. To help with dispensing, we recommend slowly squeezing and slowly releasing the rubber top; these extra few seconds give the serum time to suction into the glass pipette. It might take a bit of practice, but this tip is very effective.Was this answer helpful to you
- Q
Without giving away any of your proprietary formulation, does the percentage of the bakuchiol extract fall within the 0.5-2% range that's been shown to be clinically effective?
- Asked by Jen
- Official Answer By Mad HippieThe Super A Serum is formulated & clinically tested to visibly improve signs of aging such as a loss of firmness or elasticity, fine lines, wrinkles, and discoloration. It contains three bioactive retinoids at clinical levels: HPR, retinol, and retinyl linoleate. Bakuchiol, a plant-sourced active that acts like a retinoid, works beautifully alongside the retinoids to deliver marked results to sun-damaged and aging skin. In clinical trials for the Super A Serum, 100% of users reported smoother, healthier-looking skin, with zero irritation after 8 weeks. Our goal when formulating is to deliver the best results we can achieve without causing irritation to the average user. We don't rely on single active formulas - we choose complementary ingredients to enhance results.Was this answer helpful to you
- Q
Can i use this on my forearms for wrinkles and dark spots?
- Asked by Kat
- Official Answer By Mad HippieOur products are formulated for the face and neck, though you’re welcome to use them on your arms as well. We recommend applying sunscreen daily, as exfoliants like vitamin A can increase the skin’s sensitivity to the sun.Was this answer helpful to you
- Q
Can this product be used with the Triple C night cream ?
- Asked by Dawn
- Official Answer By Mad HippieIn general, using vitamin A alongside our Triple C Night Cream works well for most people, but if you have sensitive or reactive skin, we encourage patch-testing first to ensure the combo works well for your skin. You can also alternate nightly between them.Was this answer helpful to you
- Q
can i use the super a, vitamin c and the corrective peptide serum in conjunction?
- Asked by naya
- Official Answer By Mad HippieThe actives in these formulas can surely coexist in your skincare routines! For best results, we recommend using our Vitamin C Serum & Corrective Peptide Serum in your morning routine and saving retinol-based products such as the Super A Serum for nighttime. This allows each formula to work optimally without the potential risk of irritation.Was this answer helpful to you
