I have dry skin that's prone to seborrheic dermatitis in spring, sensitive, and a bit reactive with redness on my cheeks. Usually, I apply a pH-balancing toner twice, a simple emulsion once, and then mix the simple emulsion with The Lab's new Hyaluronic Acid Calming Cream. But with this product, I used toner once, serum once, and emulsion once. When I first received it, I thought, 'Huh? A 2-for-1 deal? Is this some kind of bribe for a good review?' But no, you actually get two bottles of serum - amazing! The texture is thick and doesn't run easily. It's yellow in color with a subtle, not overpowering, lemon-like scent. At first application, I wondered if this was really a firming serum as it felt quite light. But as I continued to apply, it became more elastic with that characteristic tackiness of firming products. And because the serum itself is yellow, you might notice your face looking a bit 'Simpson-esque' after application (though only you would notice, haha)!
ConsWhen I first opened the product and tried to use the dropper, I thought it might be broken. I had to squeeze really hard to get the serum to fill even half of the glass dropper. The thick consistency seems to make it difficult to draw up. The biggest downside was the season - summer. Even for dry skin, the thick, sticky texture in summer was too much. It made my face feel so stuffy that I had to sleep with the air conditioner on instead of just a fan. I've read some other reviews, and am I the only one who gets something like seborrheic dermatitis when using this product? I get small bumps on my forehead and under my eyes, very similar to seborrheic dermatitis. So I've stopped using it for now, but I'm wondering if this reaction is due to the summer heat. I plan to try it again in autumn and winter. Update 10/20: I tried this again in autumn, and I'm not experiencing those blemishes anymore! It seems they were just a result of the product being a bit heavy for summer use.

I've been using this product for about a week now. It contains idebenone, which is a trendy ingredient these days. I've been wanting to try it, and I'm glad I got the chance to use it. The peptides, known for their effectiveness in improving skin elasticity, also caught my eye. The scent is pleasant, and it absorbs well. For better elasticity, I think using it with galvanic devices or LED masks would be even more effective. It would likely absorb better and make the skin feel firmer. In the evening, I only used this and a hydrating cream (Physiogel). The next day, my skin didn't feel particularly dry.
ConsAs I've seen in other reviews that are starting to come in, the dropper is a bit... Even though it's a brand new product, the suction power is weak. It seems like either the formula is too thick or the dropper itself isn't strong enough.
TipI've been mixing a few drops of this into my sheet masks before applying them.
