Quick Take: moisturizing
I was worried because everything makes my skin break out and I'm noticing some wrinkles but not many. With all the acne I have had for decades, at least I get less wrinkles than most! But so far, so good. No break outs and I do like how soft it makes my skin feel. Will see how it goes as the weather warms up - may just keep it for winter?

Love it
-05.05.13
Quick Take: moisturizing
I received a sample of this serum and just loved how it made my skin feel so soft. I am a huge fan of Cytocell Cream already and the two of these together makes my face feel like a baby's. I don't know what it does, but my blemished have reduced and my skin is now more clear. Wish it wasn't so expensive as I need two pumps of this to cover my face well, unlike Quench (use in the am) that only takes a half a pump.

may go back to Quench...
-04.21.13
I have been using for a month and I don't like it as much as Quench. My skin doesn't feel as hydrated or smooth prior to applying my moisturizer. I am sorry I spent $30 more for this. I haven't noticed ANY change in my skin. I love Kate's products but this one doesn't work for me.

Best serum on the market
-04.09.13
This is absolutely the best serum I have ever tried. I love the fact that it doesn't contain any alcohol or oil, both of which are contained in many other serums that I have tried and have severely broken out my skin. It has made my skin tone even, plump, and soft. I am 23 so I don't need it for wrinkles, but rather to calm my acne and reduce the appearance of past scarring. Within 2 weeks my breakout (from using a bad product) has gone away and my scars are starting to fade. I use this in conjunction with Quench Oil-Free serum, and I couldn't be more pleased with the results. I will forever repurchase this as long as it is still being made!

Smooth skin

Quick Take: hydrating, moisturizing
I've been using this product for 2 months and absolutely love the results. My skin is much smoother and my old acne scars appear less visible. The downsize is the size of the bottle...I only use 1 pump (in the morning and evening) and 1 bottle has lasted me 2 months. I can't imagine using the recommended 2 pumps and going through a bottle once a month. With one pump you are still getting a sufficient amount of serum.

Amazing
-01.22.13
i hate how much i LOVE this stuff because it is so expensive but i cannot live without it now. i have only been using it for a few weeks and my skin looks smoother, softer and brighter. also my acne scars are slowly fading away, and this is only after a couple of weeks! i usually get consistent breakouts but not one pimple since using this, well except one on my chin now because i cant stop touching my face it is so soft! (so the pimple is my fault) lol
i just hate how small the bottle is though. i have been using two pumps like it says on the directions but i am half way done with the bottle after only two weeks (theres a small window on the side of the bottle to let you know how much is left), so i minimized it to one pumps to stretch it out a bit. lol but i will be buying another bottle soon even though it is on the pricey side. it is that worth it. i am putting my dermalogica line on the back burner for now... :)

Perfect for Oily/Combination Skin and Anti-Aging
-01.14.13
Quick Take: amazing, good for oily and combination skin, lightweight
I've been looking for an anti-aging serum that is also oil free because I have oily/combination skin. This serum is great because it goes on smooth and easy, and is very light weight. I do not have wrinkles yet, but I do have acne scars that I am hoping to get rid of.

Great product
-01.10.13
I've been using this serum for a couple weeks in the evening only and I wake up to glowing skin. It has not exacerbated my breakouts. Better yet, I think it calms it and makes my acne less noticeable. I am really liking this serum so far and the packaging is sleek and pretty too.

I have been using a couple of different serums this year, but this one does make my skin the softest and most moist. I have enjoyed that, especially now that it's winter-time.

Quick Take: life changing!
I absolutely love this product. I have old acne scars from my teenage years and a scar on my forehead from stitches at the age of 3. My acne scars are barely noticeable and the scar on my forehead is dramatically reduced. I now feel confident in not wearing foundation because of what this has done for my skin. This is my new favorite serum!!!
