Description
Exfoliators brighten skin tone & encourage skin cell renewal, but a scrub is too harsh for delicate mature skin.
That’s why we have developed a new exfoliating serum that you wear all day as part of your beauty routine. Its blend of five botanical fruit AHAs is shown to increase the turnover of skin cells by up to 20%.*
It also contains peptides shown to reduce wrinkles and a ceramide complex to replenish skin lipids. The serum reveals beautifully smooth & soft skin, giving a brighter complexion & a more youthful glow.
* in-vitro study carried out on the active material at 4%

Summary
A great skin lifter that doesn.t make your skin rough or blemished. Ive used this several times and it really gives your skin a youthful look. I find a lot of scrubs leave my skin rough in some places but this leaves you with even skin
Would you recommend this product?
Yes
A nice alternative to harsher exfoliators

Strongest points
Easy to use and a very mild
Weakest points
Does tend to leave the skin feeling tight
Summary
With some paper thin skin but with a need to exfoliate I appreciate this product as an alterntaive to harsher exfoliants. Basically all you do is smooth it on and leave it rather than massaging a textured product over your face. There are mild exfoliators (the Elemis Gentle Rose Exfoliator is very nice and not dissimilar in price and the Murad Age Reform AHA/BHA Exfoliating Cleanser is very mild and cheaper) but I like the idea of something that works longer and without the need to scrub! It has a nice (if light) fruit smell and feels nice to use. It does leave the skin feeling a little tight but I guess this is the wrinkle reducing property. Not a replacement for exfoliants but a nice alternative.
