Worked!
So my husband's skin suffers in the winter and is both red and flakey around nose and mouth. Having tried this for a few days, his skin was noticeably better. The texture improvement was really encouraging and whilst we are not sure his skin won't flare up again as it is gets even colder, my husband says he is happy to continue using it anyway as it helps retain moisture and at this price-point, there's not much too lose.

Great product
I have dry sensitive skin so I have to be careful about the products I use. My skin is also prone to redness. I use a number of products from The Ordinary already and so was keen to try this, as it sounded perfect for my skin type and it is. I cannot rate it highly enough!

Great
I suffer with a lot of redness have being using for over a week and can already see it has eased alot I also have combination skin feel like it’s helped with my dry areas but not so good for greasy skin maybe ! Will carry on using as my redness has subsided quite a bit considering only used for a week

Nice serum
My skin looks healthier and feels less dry after using this serum. I think it is good for combination skin as it is not greasey.

Game changer
I received this to review & it doesn’t disappoint. In just over a week it has cleared some tiny bumps along my jawline, leaving my skin lovely & smooth. It’s also calmed some redness I’ve had for a while. I use it morning & night before my moisturiser & my skin is so hydrated. My skin is the best it’s been for ages. In my opinion it’s worth the price & a repurchase for me.

So hydrating
This is such a hydrating barrier serum and does exactly as it says with covering redness. It’s actually a really nice affordable primer too, my makeup sits really well on it. I like knowing it’s working underneath other products.

Lovely and calming
Lovely serum. Absorbed nicely. My skin felt calmed and protected. I don’t have redness but I could imagine it helping. Would recommend.
