I am mid thirties, have normal but congested skin with some first wrinkles. Do you think the BB Serum would work for me as an antioxidant? Does it leave a sticky layer? Did anyone see any skin improvement with this? Thanks ladies! |

Hi Minimunny,
I use the BB for months now and I like it a lot. It's leaving absolutely no layer on my skin, it sinks in very easy. My skin is (still ) almost free of wrinkles, so I use it more preventively as an antioxidant. The tolerance is good, no irritations on my skin. |

I think the ingredients in BB are excellent. I've used it and it sinks in nicely and is not oily. I don't think you should look for a big change in your skin from using it. I think it's just good to know that your skin is benefiting from the great ingredients. |

Thanks you two! Good to hear it isn't sticky, a lot of serums seem to leave a strange residue.
You are probably right, with an antioxydant product a change in skin is not to be expected, only that it makes the skin stay as it is for longer
Do you use a cream on top or do you use it on its own? am or pm?
I intend to use the Kimberley Sayers SPF25 lotion on top, hope that will work! |

Hi,
This product does sink in nicely and is great for layering. I think it is more of a preventative rather than a corrective product, so I did not see any improvements with it, but I hope in the future I will. |

I love it, the smell and the feel of it. I can't say I notice a difference like everyone else, but I just hope for the future that it will have mattered. I wish it would replace Vitamin C, but I'm not sure it does. |

Thanks for your thoughts! Do You use it am or pm? Solo or with a cream on top?
It doesn't make the skin more sensitive to UV rays, does it? |

As it is an antioxidant serum, I'd like to know if it can replace Vitamin C serum.
Also, should I add it to my daily routine it as I am using Vitamin C serum? |

I personally found the Berry serum to be mediocre. It felt fine, but, I didn't notice any changes or improvements.
I think regular HA serums do about the same job, to be honest. |

It doesn't replace a Vitamin C serum. It's just some extra and beneficial antioxidants. It should be layered over your Vitamin C product if you are using it in the morning. |

You're welcome . I use it under the moisturizer or, when I'm in a hurry, mix it with the moisturizer so I just have to rub in once . Mostly pm. Works fantastic with any of my (many ) creams, so you can surely combine it with the Kimberly Sayers lotion. |
