Good daily protectant, minor pilling with thick creams

I've used this for three weeks as part of my AM routine. It plays nicely with sunscreen and a lightweight moisturizer, but if I follow with a very rich cream I get slight pilling. The texture is silky, and my skin looks less dull by day five. Packaging is simple and pump dispenses a consistent amount. Would prefer recyclable carton, though.

Pleasant scent, noticeable improvement in texture

This serum has become part of my evening routine. I apply it after cleansing and before a thicker night cream. The scent is faint and herbal, not overpowering. After about two weeks my skin felt smoother and makeup sat better in the morning. The bottle lasts longer than I expected because a little goes a long way. One minor gripe: the pump sometimes sticks if I don't wipe the nozzle, but overall it's a solid product that complements my vitamin C and sunscreen days.

Nice formula but not dramatic on fine lines

I've been using this for six weeks. It hydrates nicely and gives skin a healthy glow, but I didn't see a dramatic change in fine lines. That said, texture improved and my makeup sits better. Would recommend if you want a dependable daily serum rather than a miracle worker.
