bareMinerals Active CellRenewal Night Serum Review
-05.21.13
Quick Take: hydrating
I have oily, mature skin that is sensitive and congested. There are not many products that my skin responds to, but this product really does hydrate without causing a reaction. It is lightweight and non-oily. I use three drops for my entire face. As the firm, healthy, and younger-looking skin....my friends noticed.

I love this serum so much that I got my mom into using it. It's very hydrating and I wake up with glowing skin. It's easily one of my favorite bareMinerals products.

Active Cell Renewal Night Serum
-05.10.13
Quick Take: moisturizing
I love this product. I am in my 60s, and my skin is firm and looks great, people never guess my age. This product is easy to use, non greasy and simplifies my bedtime routine quite a bit. I would recommend this product for any age skin care.

Review 4 for Active Cell Renewal Night Serum
Hydrating
-05.05.13
Quick Take: hydrating
I recently decided to give Bare Minerals skin care a try after getting fed up with the incredibly high prices of the better skin care brands.I really liked the Bare Minerals cleanser,the non foaming one for drier skin and plunged in and got this serum and the nourishing moisturizer which is also for dry skin and I couldn't be happier! I have very dry sensitive skin and so far all of the products have kept my skin soft and minimized redness and irritation. I took away a star because this serum comes in a glass container which is fragile and not travel friendly .I would prefer a sturdier container instead of the medicine bottle with the dropper. Thankfully my first bottle was almost empty when it fell into the sink and shattered.Anyway, I would recommend the Bare Minerals skin care line overall.

Review 5 for Active Cell Renewal Night Serum
Hydration Accomplished
-05.01.13
Quick Take: hydrating, moisturizing
I have eczema and dry skin in general; my face is no exception. This product definitely moisturizes and hydrates. It has improved the dryness on my face so much that I did not have to worry about dry spots or flaky skin throughout the winter months.

Review 6 for Active Cell Renewal Night Serum
So far so good
-04.25.13
Quick Take: hydrating, moisturizing
I got this as a sample. I've used this for 2 nights and I swear my skin is just, well...prettier! It seems to be smoother and clearer! I'm going to continue until my sample runs out then we'll see! Only 4 stars because I haven't used it long enough.

Review 7 for Active Cell Renewal Night Serum
A FACE CHANGER
-04.21.13
Quick Take: a transformational serum
I have used this serum for over 2 weeks and I have without a doubt seen amazing results. Several people have already told me how much younger I look. My face is smoother and firmer and has an uplifting look. Using this serum increases the moisture levels while you sleep. The next morning your face is definitely prettier. I have used the Bare Essentials moisturizer on top of it at night, but I seem to like not putting the moisturizer on top of the serum. I can see a noticable difference without the moisturizer. I now use the moisturizer only during the day.

Review 8 for Active Cell Renewal Night Serum
Just ok
-04.14.13
I was hoping this serum would help me with the dryness and flakiness on my cheeks, but it didn't. I used the whole thing, but I wouldn't repurchase because it's too expensive and it didn't do anything for my skin.

Review 10 for Active Cell Renewal Night Serum
Bellabee1
Night Serum
-03.25.13
I ordered this serum in my quest for a moisturizing night serum for my dry, sensitive, acne prone skin. I had high hopes based on other reviewers comments but was unfortunately disappointed. The serum gave me little tiny bumps all over my face after one use. Thinking it may be a fluke I tried it again a few weeks later and got the same thing. It was not at all moisturizing; the smell is not bad but not good either. I ordered online and returned to the store, Sephora was great exchanging my purchase.

Review 11 for Active Cell Renewal Night Serum
Saved my skin
-03.20.13
Quick Take: exfoliating, moisturizing
There's a lot of snake oil out there, we all know that but I can truly say that this product, for me at least, is miraculous. I had a few small pimples on my cheeks (nothing serious) and then I recieved a sample of a fancy French pimple cream and said why not? Bad decision. My cheeks broke out in a rash, raised red bumps all over and right before my fortieth birthday (happy birthday to me....). A one week regemin of Cortizone got rid of the swelling but it left me with red spots all over my cheeks and had spread up to my temples and eyelids. I was so distraught. My skin was still sensitive so I applied Argan oil which helped with healing but it didn't do anything for the scars. I had ordered the Bare Minerals starter kit earlier and when it arrived it included a sample vial of this serum. I didn't research it and wasn't sure what it could actually do but at that point I was desperate for anything and put it on before going to sleep. When I woke up and looked in the bathroom mirror I almost cried. The red spots had diminished a good 40%! I couldn't believe the difference in one night's sleep! Over weeks it has faded my scars and fine lines on my forehead and has improved the overall texture of my skin. I will use this product for as long as they sell it.

Returned
-03.17.13
I returned this product without using it for another night serum that I found and fell in love with before this one arrived in the mail. However, I gave this a 3 star because my dear friend swears by it!

Quick Take: hydrating, exfoliating, moisturizing
Wonderful! The only drawback is the very delicate glass bottle. I had one smash into many pieces. Too expensive to waste!

Review 14 for Active Cell Renewal Night Serum
A Nightly Must Have!!
-03.05.13
Quick Take: hydrating, moisturizing, smoothing
I originally received this as a small sample size from Sephora. After 3 days of use, I noticed an improvement in skin tone and visibly reduced scars from blemishes. While this is an expensive product, I absolutely refuse to not use it nightly. It's worth every cent!

Review 15 for Active Cell Renewal Night Serum
Hydrated, Luminous Skin
-03.01.13
Quick Take: hydrating, doesn't clog pores
I've been using this product for about a month now and my skin has noticeably improved. It is more hydrated and luminous than before I started using it. When I wake up, my skin is glowing and the tone is more even now. Also, I've noticed that some dark spots from pimples have faded.
The best part about this product is definitely that it does not clog pores. The corners of my mouth are my trouble areas, and I have not had one breakout there since I started using this product.
While it's no miracle serum (I've had better results with some of the more expensive brands), its relatively low price combined with its results means that I will definitely be purchasing it again once I run out.

Review 16 for Active Cell Renewal Night Serum
Review 17 for Active Cell Renewal Night Serum
Instant results
-02.21.13
Quick Take: moisturizing, diminishes fine lines
I'm on my 2nd bottle. When the 1st was almost finished I tried many product samples, some products costing twice as much, but nothing gave me the results that this does. The results are quick, I apply at night before bed, and my fine lines are smooth in morning. I have combo skin and this alone provides just enough moisture for dry areas, without too much on oily areas.

Juemsasnica
Great stuff!
-02.20.13
I hav combination skin with mild acne controlled with meds. I got this product because my inner top eyelids were so dry they were hurting. This was due to winter weather and having the heater on at night. I tried the sample product first and loved that there was no oily resedu and sensitive for my eye area. I saw results in a week. Now I use it all over my face and eyes before applying eye cream and face moisturizer. If days r really dry, will apply during the day.

Review 20 for Active Cell Renewal Night Serum
Amazing!
-02.18.13
I received a sample of this at my local Sephora. After using it just two nights, I noticed a big change in my skin texture and a glow to my skin in the morning. My daughter even commented on how good my skin looked! I went back and purchased it. A little pricey but you only use a pea size drop so will last quite a while! Definitely worth the money in my opinion!!
