Strongest points
Beautiful easy to use pump action bottle. No spills, no waste, no mess! Pearlescent serum that gives and immediate radiance to the skin. Great value for money especially when there are deals on in Super Drug (I got £10 off this product!). Lovely scent. Very quickly absorbed.
Weakest points
None
Summary
I have many serums, primers and oils and I particularly love to use this one in the morning as I feel it really does give an immediate radiance to my skin and I prefer to use the aromatherapy oils in the evenings as they enable me to give my face a relaxing massage too. It also sits very well under moisturisers, foundations or BB creams depending on your needs. The bottle looks lovely in the bathroom and I would say this product had all the attributes you would expect to find in a much more expensive brand.

Weakest points
Gave me milia on my forehead.
Summary
I was impressed with the performance of this product outwith it gave me milia on my forehead. The lines definetely looked less pronounced. However, for the first time in my life I developed milia on my foreheada. I'm convninced this product was the cause as I had only been using the serum there to taget the lines between my brows. I wouldn't recommend it but if it suits your skin it is a great value buy. I would recommend waiting to purchase when on special offer, Superdrug can have it for up to half price sometimes.

My skin looked more radiant after just 2 applications. For me, it worked best when used before bed-time. I can't comment on its effectiveness on uneven skin-tone, as my skin-tone is fairly even.

Strongest points
More absorbent than some serums. Gives a radiant, dewy finish. Leaves skin looking visibly smoother.
Weakest points
Expensive (prices range from £15.99-£24.99).
Summary
A good serum that gives the luminosity it promises. Expensive, but has a light, creamy texture, so a little goes a long way.
