Customers say
Customers find the serum effective at moisturizing and soothing irritated skin, with one noting it works quickly. The product receives positive feedback for its soft, smooth texture, quick absorption, and ability to help with redness, with one customer reporting results after just one use. While many consider it good value for money, some find it not worth the price. Several customers report allergic reactions, making it unsuitable for sensitive skin types.

Unbelievably Great
This serum is CRAZY good. So I use tretinoin and even after months of nightly use I still get quite dry skin, especially this winter season. I thought I was moisturizing enough, but clearly not because I’d wear makeup and the dry patches were just on full display.I got this product after seeing that my skin barrier is clearly a mess and I need to fix it. Dude, within the first night of use I noticed a difference the next morning when I applied my makeup.I have been continuing to use this product 2x a day: morning and night. I do not notice any issues with pilling to be honest. I also have no experienced pink stains of any sort left over on my face and I use an entire dropper of product on my face.It doesn’t really smell like much of anything. It’s a bright pink color. Soaks right into the skin and spreads easily.I pair this product now with a thick cica balm at night and I think the combo works. I literally still use tretinoin in the midst of all of this and absolutely ZERO issues.Here is my full night routine: Oil/balm cleanse. Regular cleanser. Milky toner. TO Barrier Serum (wait at least 10 minutes), tret (wait at least 10-20 minutes), thick cica balm (I use avene) and let that really sit for a few minutes and soak into your skin. After I will add a lighter moisturizer of any kind or I will use an overnight mask (I use the Kiehls overnight recovery mask). This may seem excessive but I find it has been working great for my barrier, not kidding. Makeup has improved so much.For morning I lightly cleanse to get the oils and all that moisturizer off of me or I will break out. I then use that same milky toner (I use laneige). Then this serum. A moisturizer and then sunscreen and proceed with day or makeup.If it helps, I just turned 28 and my regular skin without tret is still pretty dry like normal-dry, acne prone for suuuure and with tretinoin it’s sahara-level dry and still acne prone but meh. I use tret for aging reasons, not acne!I hope this helps someone!!

Great stuff for rosecia
This stuff is amazing. It creates this amazing moisture barrier to your skin. I have rosecia so my skin gets very irritated, this stuff really helps. It is almost like putting calamine lotion on your skin, but with a moisturized feel. And I don’t know what magic is in it but it blurs my poors like a primer too, it’s a win win!

This gives you smooth and moisturized skin.
I’ve been using this for about three weeks now and have noticed a difference in my skin. This has helped my redness, and my skin feels soft and smooth. It absorbs easily and is a great value for your money.

Moisturizing and leaves skin dewy
Good product, nice on the skin, reduce redness, I just wish it didnât have little pink flakes that come up on the skin after itâs been on a while

Very soothing
A great addition to your skincare routine. Makes the skin soft especially after a peel or exfoliating. Highly recommended.

Good results
Product smells is a bit strong and sensitive skin may need to start with small amount for testing. This works great to keep my skin glowing and have worked up to using the recommended amount. Pay attention to the recommendations for combining as it did make my skin more sensitive to other products. Results were worth it!

Es ist sehr angenehm, bildet kein Gefühl, als ob ich eine Folie auf Gesicht habe. Brennt nichts auf Gesicht, angenehmes Geruch. Die Desichthaut fühlt sich angenehm an

Ottimo prodotto se si cerca un effetto lenitivo, rinfrescante e idratante. Unica pecca, è un poâ troppo corposo per una pelle grassa/mista, quindi lo consiglierei come impacco notturno piuttosto.
