This serum is great value for money. I'm focusing on moisturizing my dry skin and acne medication, and I think the combination of this line with ELIXIR's lotion and emulsion is more than enough. I also use ELIXIR's moisturizing gel to make sure I'm staying extra moisturized.
This product is highly rated and popular. As a fan of budget cosmetics, I thought it was a little pricey, but considering the ingredients, I think it's actually quite affordable. I apply two pumps every night, mainly around my nasolabial folds, and it spreads very well and is easy to apply. It seems like it will last a long time. The subtle, gentle scent makes it easy to use every day. The moist feeling lasts until the next morning. I plan to continue using it, as they say that those who believe will be saved.
It's reasonably priced for a serum, so I continue to use it. Elixir has more expensive serums, but I'm thinking of buying this one first and seeing how it works. It's a smooth serum that absorbs quickly and feels good on the skin. I haven't noticed any noticeable changes to my skin, but I'm using it to slow down dark spots and aging.
I've only recently started paying attention to Elixir, but honestly, I don't think this is a product worth paying attention to. If it's focused on improving wrinkles, other products in the series might be better.
I bought it on Beauty Day! It spreads easily and is very comfortable to wear. I really like that it doesn't feel sticky. I also like the scent, so I look forward to using it every time. I think I'll have to continue using it for a little longer before I can judge whether it's effective. It seems like my pores have improved, but I'd like to wait a little longer before considering repurchasing it.
