What it is formulated to do:
Allow us to quote the lovely sephora.com
What it is:
A powerful antiaging booster treatment that combines oxygen with firming retinol to create a smooth, supple glow.
What it does:
Inspired by the most sought-after treatment at the Kate Somerville Skin Health Experts™ Clinic, this resurfacing booster treatment is formulated with a retinol active ingredient combined with natural bio-retinols, which support natural collagen production and healthy cell turnover to create the appearance of firmer skin with increased elasticity, reduced wrinkles, and more even pigmentation. Its unprecedented delivery system infuses skin with three powerful ingredients in the Advanced HydraFill™ Complex: wrinkle-relaxing PFC-oxygen carriers, fast-penetrating hyaluronic acid, and radiance-boosting rare botanical extracts. The result is a complexion that appears smoother, more hydrated, and healthier.
What it is formulated WITHOUT:
- Parabens
- Sulfates
- Phthalates
Research results:
- In an independent clinical study over 4 weeks of use:
- 100% of women reported significant improvement in the appearance of skin roughness, firmness, and moisture after just one use.
- 100% of women reported significant improvement in the appearance of skin roughness, firmness, moisture, pore size, discoloration, and fine lines around eyes after 4 weeks of use.
Does it contain any special/beneficial ingredients?
Again, according to sephora.com:
-Retinol: Relaxes the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, increases the appearance of firmness and elasticity, and refines skin texture.
-Two Types of Natural Bioretinols (Babchi Edible Seed and Spanish Needle Extracts): Harness the power of retinol compounds to help reverse visible signs of aging.
-Advanced Hydrafill™ Complex: Wrinkle-relaxing PFC-oxygen carriers (fast-penetrating hyaluronic acid and radiance-boosting rare botanical extracts) for a complexion that appears smoother, hydrated, and healthier.
What is the texture like?
This starts off as a soft foam and melts into a watery consistency which absorbs in seconds.
Is it scented?
This has a clean, herbal scent. It smells like lavender but almost more floral. I don't mind it and like that for nighttime but... just be aware.
My overall experience/comments on the product:
I have used this for about a week. It feels really incredible and kind of justifies its price point in just how well it hydrates my skin. It's mega lightweight but truly boosts the hydrating effects of everything I put over top of it and leaves my skin feeling super soft and smooth while being weightless. As I've mentioned before, my skin is dry but doesn't bode well with heavy textured products so this stuff is just perfect. I think I'll use it up and see how I feel about re-buying afterward.
