Reviews

Pungent Scent

"Product works well, feels nice when applying. One pump goes a long way! My only dislike is the smell- it's very pungent and unpleasant. It fades quickly, so you're not smelling it all day, but it's not a good smell and I'm not sure if I'd buy this oil again. Might go back to the Hemp oil which is a lighter smell and has less color to it."

— Trisha A. (4/5)

Another great product!

"I couldn’t quite give this one a 5 star, but only because I am not a fan of the flowery scent. It is still a great product that does what it says and doesn’t cause any issues, I just don’t like the smell, and as something you put on your face, you want to like the smell - I didn’t know when I bought it, otherwise wouldn’t have bought it or asked for another scent (if there is one). And if there was one, I would definitely buy it again!"

Game Changer!

"I originally purchased the mini serum set to try a few out to see which one I liked best. The plumping serum was a huge game changer for my skin! I had dull, dehydrated skin and am acne prone. The plumping serum brought life back to my face, smoothed fine lines, helped with texture, and left a glowy and hydrated finish. I wasn’t sure if the smell would bother me based off other reviews, but I don’t have any issues with the smell- I actually kind of enjoy it. I truly recommend this serum!"

My skin feels great!

"If my rating was based on results alone it would be a 5 star. I only rated it a 4 star because of the strong scent from the geranium oil. I have gotten used to it now that I have used this product for over a week now, but it took getting used to. Aside from the strong aroma, this is a great product. Personally, I think it is great to use in my night time routine."

Love the plumping serum!

"I am 65 and started using the plumping serum several months ago. After two months, I went on an overseas trip for two weeks and took prior products that were leftover and I knew they would be used up in those few weeks. I visibly noticed my skin becoming more dry, sagging and wrinkled. Upon my return, I went right back to the plumping serum and saw the benefits almost immediately. I will likely never use anything else!"

Plumping Serum

"I was so skeptical to try this because my skin is so sensitive. To my surprise after just a few days of using the serum my skin is noticeably plumper and my fine lines are not as noticeable. My skin is also brighter feels hydrated. I’ll definitely be keeping this product in my daily skin care lineup."

— Kristian P. (5/5)

I must say my skin

"I must say my skin feels great & a little goes a long way & leaves my skin moisturized all day so if you’re looking for a light moisturizer with multiple benefits this is it!!!"

— Samone F. (5/5)

glowing!

"As a college student, I’m not always getting the best sleep, so my skin definitely suffers. I’ve always struggled with acne, but I feel like the plumping serum makes my skin look so much better even with a little bit of sleep! I feel more glowy and there’s less redness for sure. I LOVE this serum because my acne scars fade so much faster when I use this too!"

— Kaylynn E. (5/5)

Plumping serum-great blend

"Coming from someone who is very particular on what goes on my face with experience in aromatherapy and creating skin care blends, I find this serum to be a great daytime skin care. It feels just right satiny and protective...adds a subtle tint to skin and a healthy clean natural plumping look. I gave it a 4 only because I think the fragrance is lovely, but slightly too strong for a facial oil being so close to our sense of scent."

— Veronica C. (4/5)

Decided to try out this

"Decided to try out this serum to add to my nighttime routine before antioxidant balm. LOVE the way it goes on and so far how it pairs well with AB. The scent of jasmine is pretty strong and honestly not my favorite. I like the serum otherwise so I'm hoping I'll get used to the scent. Just a personal preference!"

— Annikki K. (5/5)
