I have dry skin type and this is the best serum so far! I use it with The Ordinary Natural Moisturising Factors cream. This combination not only moisturizes the skin but also prevents acne formation, but it's all individual!
The serum is possibly not bad, but it rolls and sticks.
I purchased this product on April 28th. And for some reason, I didn't like the serum at first. It dried out my skin even after applying cream. The foundation didn't apply well. I have combination skin (I'm 40 years old). But a couple of days ago (in July), I decided to give it a second chance. And it behaved differently. Maybe my skin was very dry after the cold weather (or because I changed all my skincare products), but now I like the serum. It noticeably tightens the skin. I apply SPF (I use SPF 50) by lightly tapping it into my palms before applying it, and then nothing rolls off. So, give it a second chance after some time. Who knows!
My characteristic - this thing is bomb! I read the comments, maybe you are using it incorrectly? If you apply too much, it will indeed become sticky. Here's how I use it: after washing my face with the Ritual toner from Relance and applying serum on top, it absorbs very quickly. Then I apply the moisturizing factor. I am very satisfied with the effect. My skin looks fresh, healthy, firm, and feels soft and pleasant to the touch.
I wouldn't say that I am impressed with this serum. I was looking for a product that I could apply before my moisturizer for deep hydration of dry facial skin. Unfortunately, I didn't achieve the desired results. Moreover, if I apply the Cerave cream with SPF on top, everything just rolls off afterwards. So, I still use it, but only with a very light cream. I definitely won't be ordering it again, I will continue searching for something effective for moisturizing.
For its price, the serum is not bad. I am satisfied.
The serum is not bad, but it leaves a sticky feeling. I bought it from Skinbar with hyaluronic acid, and surprisingly, it turned out that the other one was better.
I love this serum. It's exactly what I paid for.
Did not like it. Sticky liquid without odor, leaves a film on the face, after a few days of use, occasional pimples appeared...
Great thing. Very effective, I recommend it to everyone!
Wonderful serum! I have been using it for several months now (bought it here or ordered it from Poland). One bottle lasts approximately 1.5-2 months (4 drops on the face, once a day). I use it after acids and seal it with a hyaluronic acid cream from the same brand. It absorbs quickly, may feel slightly sticky, but it's fine for overnight use, and after applying the cream, it's perfect. I have combination skin prone to comedones, and finding the right care can be a challenge. But this product is a perfect fit. An additional plus is that this cosmetic has no scent.
Did not like it. Sticky liquid that dries instantly and leaves a film... I bought this brand in Europe, and in my opinion, this product is very different.
I have sensitive and combination skin. It moisturizes very well, I apply cream on top. I apply it on damp face. I definitely recommend it.
Used for dry sensitive skin, after toner and before moisturizer. Did not cause irritation, skin felt comfortable. Can't say anything else. There was no wow effect, but it depends on what to expect :) Maybe I will repurchase it someday.
I liked this product, I bought it for the first time. I have oily skin, and the serum absorbs quickly and even creates a slight lifting effect. The consistency is thick and it needs to be applied with patting motions (not rubbed in to create foam!). It leaves a sticky finish, BUT it is not felt at all after applying the cream. There are no clumps that roll off, maybe some girls didn't let the product absorb properly, so that's why they had that effect. I use it both during the day and at night. I will buy it again.
I have dry, sensitive, and prone to redness skin. I used this serum in combination with the Natural Moisturizing Factors + HA moisturizer according to The Ordinary's basic recipes. I didn't see any significant results in two weeks. However, the consistency of the serum is good and it absorbs quickly.
Excellent. I'm buying it for the fourth time already.
I ordered here and really liked the serum. It has a pleasant, thick and soft consistency. Applying it on my face is a delight. I use it in the evening and follow with a moisturizer. I like the effect. I am 26 years old and have combination skin. I am satisfied with this brand and also recommend their acid peeling and the serum with niacinamide for subcutaneous pimples.
Very sticky, leaves a tight feeling, I always have to apply cream afterwards, did not notice any special effects from using it.
In comparison to the hyaluronic acid from Bravura, this product is not worth it. I bought it for myself and my sister. My skin is oily and problematic, and my sister's skin is sensitive and dry. It caused red patches and formed a film on my sister's skin.
I only use this serum in the evening (it's not suitable for use under makeup), after applying it I immediately spray my face with thermal water and then apply moisturizer after 5-10 minutes.
Everything is great! It doesn't tighten or stick (after it dries with the thermal water, of course), and it doesn't roll off.
I'm 39 and it has an effect! I've also started doing facebuilding exercises - and together they give good results!
"It didn't suit me, which is a pity. The oily composition caused acne breakouts, indicating that it is comedogenic. I have combination skin and didn't notice any improvements."
For the best effect, the serum should be applied to wet skin - it absorbs well and does not roll off.
35+, combination skin prone to dryness. The serum is thick and oily, so it spreads easily on the face. Three drops are too much for my not-so-small face, so I use less. I use it at night after toner and seal it in with a moisturizer. The result - the horizontal wrinkle on my forehead has almost disappeared, and my skin feels firm and moisturized. The downside is that it tends to roll off my skin, so I can't wear it under makeup during the day as I can feel the serum.
Honestly, I was so afraid to buy this product because there are many reviews saying that the serum rolls off. But I have no issues with it rolling off. I repeat, we apply 3 drops and gently press it into the skin. The serum is super. It moisturizes superbly!
It rolls up.
The serum seems to be good, it tightens the skin well and works well with moisturizing cream. I really wanted to love it, but I have a slight reaction to it - small pimples appear in certain areas. It's a pity, but I will have to give it to one of my friends.
I have been using the serum for only the second day. I will write a detailed review later. But I wanted to share my first impressions. I have read many reviews saying that the serum pills. I can say that if you apply 3 drops, which is enough, and pat it into the skin without smearing, it does not pill. Yes, it is sticky. But it goes away. Besides, such serums should always be followed by a moisturizer.
Immediately, I feel good hydration! Just amazing. The skin feels very soft, nourished, and glowing.
The serum is excellent, I have normal, sensitive skin so I have no problems with it. I apply a couple of drops in the morning and evening, under my cream. I use it with Vichy skincare, the cream does not roll off. The serum itself has a cumulative effect. So it's worth waiting for results no earlier than a couple of weeks.
First acquaintance with this brand's face serum. Honestly, I expected more, especially since I had been using a budget serum from Elizavecca, which turned out to be twice as effective in terms of results. The skin is moisturized, but for winter, the effect is insignificant.
It didn't evoke any special emotions! I didn't notice a "wow" effect either! But I can't say anything bad either, there were no breakouts after using it, but it did slip a bit in my hands.
I have combination skin 25+. I've been using this serum for 4 days, tried it with both cream and under a mask. I really like it. It feels sticky for the first 5-7 minutes and tightens because it contains real hyaluronic acid. If you haven't experienced this before, congratulations on a real hyaluronic acid purchase. It's too early to talk about the results, but there are no breakouts or discomfort from it so far.
After using the serum, the sensations are not pleasant. It tightens and dries out the skin very much! Even after applying cream, the skin remains tight! It is not suitable for wearing makeup... only for night use... I don't understand the enthusiastic reviews! The price of all The Ordinary products on the website is inflated!
I like the serum, I have already ordered it twice. After it is absorbed into the skin, a film appears (I'm not an expert, but I think that's expected, right?), and I immediately apply cream on top of it. I'm satisfied with the effect, it evens out my complexion and moisturizes my skin. Sometimes I also use it under alginate masks. It has a small consumption, so it lasts me a long time. I will order more.
Moisturizes weakly, but evens out the skin. It didn't work for me under makeup - it rolls off under foundation.
I don't know what happened with this serum, whether the manufacturer changed the formula or it's just this particular batch, but this time it didn't work for me.
I ordered the first bottle back in May and it was perfect, absorbed well and moisturized my skin nicely.
I decided to order it again. I've been using it for the second week now and it's terrible. The serum doesn't fully absorb, it stays on my face like a film that later peels off. It looks like flaking, which I don't usually have. So it's definitely the dried-up serum peeling off.
I'm disappointed, as I really loved this brand. I can't recommend it anymore.
Visually, I haven't noticed anything yet, but the feeling with the serum is better than without it. It doesn't tighten my skin, but I still apply the cream on top. By the way, I found it cheaper by a hundred after purchasing.
I didn't buy it here, but I want to leave a review for future buyers. Don't expect any miracles, I didn't notice any significant moisturizing effect. I use it before applying the cream from the same brand. The product is just average, nothing special, like a regular budget mass-market product.
After application, the skin feels tight! Very dry... even after applying cream, it's not very comfortable.
I was given this serum as a gift, it was purchased abroad. But I also want to write a review.
The serum is not bad. After using it for the first time, even my skin tone became more even, and small redness and other imperfections became slightly less noticeable. It even seems like my enlarged pores have become less wide. There is no sticky residue on my skin. However, one time I didn't apply cream on top, and after about 15 minutes, a cracked film appeared on my chin (similar to peeling skin after sunburn) and pieces of it were sticking out in all directions. And yes, without cream on top, the skin will feel tight. But as far as I know, it is highly recommended to apply cream or gel after using the serum. Nevertheless, it was not sticky.
Here's how I use it: I remove my makeup with milk, wash my face with foam, apply the serum, and after 5 minutes, I apply aloe gel. Sometimes, before the serum, I use a scrub, peel, or face mask.
I won't give it 5 stars - I haven't been using it for long, so it's too early to give it the highest rating - what if something goes wrong... I didn't experience a "wow" effect, but there is an effect - even skin tone, reduction of redness, and matte skin. It's a decent product.
I liked the serum! I was afraid that it would roll off, as they write, but if you apply it by patting, then everything is great! It moisturizes well!
With this serum, I completely forgot about flakiness. I have combination, sensitive skin that tends to be dry. After 2 months of use (once a day after toner and before night cream), the texture of my skin became smoother and more even. I will now try other serums from The Ordinary.
Magic!
After two weeks of use, I completely forgot about dry skin!
The main thing is not to rub it in, but to pat it onto the face. It absorbs very quickly!
It doesn't tighten, and it has almost no scent.
Very cool thing. Those who write that it's sticky - of course it's sticky, it's hyaluronic acid after all. They are all like that for the most part. Apply your daily cream on top and everything will be fine. Otherwise, it will dry out your skin. (Hyaluronic acid doesn't care where it gets moisture from, whether it's from the cream or your skin). And it does its job perfectly. Pleasant price.
Overall, the product is nothing special, sticky, unpleasant, and has zero effect on my dry skin!
I have been wanting to try products from this company for a long time, and I wanted to share my impression of this serum, which has mostly positive reviews. After washing my face, I apply the serum, then the gel fluid, and finally the cream. All of the products are moisturizing. I have been using the serum for a week now, and there is no result, no changes at all. So, if you already have a skincare routine that works for you, there is no need to bother with this serum.
Took it specifically for the cream, applied it on moisturized skin and on dry skin, but no matter what I applied over the serum, it all rolls off. I tried 2 different creams, I tried oil - the same effect. Maybe someone can help with advice.
I managed to grab it literally right after it appeared on the makeup market =) And today the courier already brought gifts to work - my personal Nikolaychik! It's still difficult to say about the serum's effectiveness (I will continue testing), but the first application was good. Hyaluronic acid with different molecular weights is currently a trend in the world of cosmetology and professional cosmetics, so I have high expectations for the serum. Thank you Makeup for the gift =)
I really liked the serum. My face looks fresh and rested. I have tried serums from more expensive brands, but this one is the best. I only use it at night because my combination skin tends to get shiny quickly after morning use. Highly recommend it.
Excellent serum, especially for the price))) I've seen reviews online where they said that compared to luxury brands, it's not worth anything, but excuse me, those brands are at least 5 times more expensive. I can compare it to Chanel's Hydre Beauty Micro Serum, and The Ordinary is actually better. By the way, I was happy to see The Ordinary available on the makeup website, but this serum quickly went out of stock. Please restock it soon.
