What a waste of time! The product is expired! This is the third product from The Ordinary that I ordered from this makeup store, and all three of them are expired! My advice to other buyers is to always check the expiration date.
Great T-shirt
The product may cause a slight burning sensation upon application, but this feeling quickly fades away. However, after prolonged use, the skin appears fresh, hydrated, and well taken care of. Due to certain life circumstances, I had to stop using it for a week, and that's when the difference in sensation becomes noticeable. My skin is combination type, and I am 45 years old or older.
I really liked the serum, I use 3 drops before applying the cream before bed. I am satisfied.
During the first application, I experienced a terrible allergy in the form of red and bluish spots. How could I have not read the reviews before purchasing?!
I have combination skin. Unfortunately, this serum is a waste of money. It doesn't absorb into the skin even after half an hour of application. It leaves a yellow film on the skin as if someone smeared iodine on you. I do not recommend it.
Dry, sensitive skin.
On the 5th day of use, a red rash resembling hives appeared.
The serum has an oily texture and a iodine color.
It does not absorb well into the skin and leaves a greasy film.
I also developed an allergy after applying it, which resulted in a burning sensation.
Leaves a sticky residue on the skin, without noticing any difference in skin quality after use.
Excellent serum, slightly oily texture, has a color similar to iodine solution. I use it in combination with vitamin C, resveratrol, and ferulic acid. I'm not sure if it will have any effect on its own, but when used with vitamin C, it works to improve skin tone and evenness. Both me and my mom noticed the effect, as we both used the same set of products.
I did not notice any difference in the quality of my skin with this serum and without it.
