L'Oreal Paris Age Perfect Golden Age Radiance Reactivating Serum Review

I loved the colour. I just used this at night to give my skin a moisture boost while I slept. I felt my skin looked pumped and rested and fresh in the morning. I didn't really like the sticky feeling when I applied it but was similar in that sense to other serums I have used.

This is now my favourite beauty product and I won't leave home without it. In recent years I have found that unless I use a serum before a moisturiser my skin tends to dry out during the day. I have struggled to find a serum I love but this is it. So easy to apply, so easily absorbed and such incredible value for money - I was only using 4 or so drops each morning to do my face and neck so it goes along way. LOVE IT.

The container for the serum is quite large. It doesn’t have a dropper like many do, so getting the right amount of serum was a little bit of an issue. The serum is unlike any other serum I’ve used before. Normally a serum feels super silky and glides over my skin. Generally you don’t need a lot of serum either, but this serum feels almost dry. I felt I needed to use quite a lot of the serum or it didn’t go very far. I let the serum sit on my skin for a couple of minutes to allow it to soak in before applying the day cream or night cream over the top of the serum.

I feel that my skin looks and feels better since using the serum, combined with the day cream and the night cream.

It’s in quite a large container for a serum. I’m using a lot of serum both at night before the night cream and in the morning before the day cream. Considering how much I’m using, it seems to be lasting quite well, so it’s also good value for money.

I do feel that my pigmentation has lightened up a bit and my friends and husband agreed with that assessment. As I’ve been using the serum, with the day cream and the night cream it’s hard to tell which product is having the most impact.

A few drops of this goes a long way, and used in conjunction with the Day Cream and Night Cream, this is liquid gold that completes the package. Glides on the skin, is absorbed easily and is the perfect base to follow with a moisturiser. Nicely scented, it was enjoyable to use and my face loved it! Overall a light but richly intense serum that after 3 weeks of using, left my skin feeling hydrated, supple and soft.

The packaging of the serum looks particularly good as the container is clear so you can see the pink hued liquid inside. It is a generous 125ml. The serum has a twist off lid & just a plastic bung at the top of the bottle which I thought was quite unusual (no dropper or pump) but the serum comes out easily enough. The liquid has gold sparkly bits which are really lovely & ensure the product appears ‘high-end’. The consistency of the serum feels like a thin liquid as it comes out of the bottle but goes on almost a bit sticky. This feeling disappeared within 30 seconds though. The instructions say to ‘tap lightly to absorb’ & this does work much better than rubbing it in. The serum says it will hydrate, improve texture & skin will feel more toned. I left it on for a while on its own & it felt OK even like this but definitely worked better with the day cream. As serums go, once you get over the ‘sticky feeling’ it’s a goody. I would be happy to use this on its own without the day & night cream i.e. with a different range or brand of day cream.

The packaging is to die for. Looks very pemium and quite glam on my dressing table. It looks absolutely beautiful, best of the lot. When turned upside down just a drop comes out, which is enough for the face. It has a pleasant smell. And when applied on the skin, doesn't feel greasy. My skin is looking healthier, hydrated and radiant. In the morning, skin looks & feels fresh. Infact the skin feels tighter. Cheeks seem less sagging. I had a few wrinkles around my eyes & forehead which have started reducing. Dare I say I'm looking youmger, am definitely feeling it. It feels a bit pricey, but looking at the result, I say its worth every penny.

I am a bit younger than the recommended age for the L'Oreal Paris Age Perfect Golden Age Radiance Reactivating Serum. I have sensitive dry skin and some redness. I have been using the product for about 1 month at the time of this review (Dec 2018). I am very pleased with the results.

I have used serums before. I really enjoyed using the L'Oreal Paris Age Perfect Golden Age Radiance Reactivating Serum. It is very refreshing and a perfect base for a day cream.

I have been applying the serum after my morning shower and I let it dry a few seconds before applying the day cream. The serum if very refreshing. I like the bottle. Easy to open and close, and dispensing only the 3 drops I need every morning. Some bottles dispense too much; with this bottle you squeeze just what you need.

The packaging is discreet. I find it nice and simple. The packaging has a PAP recycling logo. The pot is made of glass. I would think only the top and inside lids can't be recycled.

I would recommend the product to my friends 50 and over. My skin was instantly perfectly hydrated and ready to start the day.

I have never used a serum before and was interested to see what it did. Pretty rose gold packaging throughput the range. Large bottle which 4 weeks of use has hardly touched. 2 drops of product was sufficient for me. I would have preferred a different type of bottle as you had to squeeze to get the correct amount. Product went on smoothly and left me with a slightly sticky finish, it took a couple of minutes to dry before applying daycream. My skin feels softer after the trial .

I was a little disappointed upon opening the serum box to find that the bottle was lightweight plastic and didn't have a pump or spray applicator. The serum itself is a pretty blush pink colour with sparkles. It's a nice consistency and smells divine. I love the smell, it reminds me of a Shiseido Skincare range I used years ago. The application of the serum is to apply 2 to 3 drops on cleansed skin, massage and then pat to absorb. It leaves the skin feeling tacky which I don't like but it does provide a nice base for the day or night cream to work with. Now, does this serum do as promised which is to refresh and smooth the marks of sleep and fatigue? Does it intensely re-hydrate the skin to re-plump and alleviate the feeling of tightness and awaken the glow of dull skin for fresher, more radiant looking skin? Well not exactly. As mentioned in the night cream review, I do not wake up looking refreshed. However, when used with the day cream the skin certainly has a fresh rosy glow. I do like this serum, however, I absolutely love the L'Oreal Laser 3 Serum so it's a hard call to find a serum I love more. In saying that, the gorgeous smell alone would have me re-purchase this product - if I couldn't get the Laser 3 Serum.

L'Oreal Paris Age Perfect Golden Age Radiance Reactivating Serum is a lovely light moisturising serum. It's packaged in a tall square bottle with a squeeze top. It's unusual packaging for a serum, which would more commonly have a pipette or pump, but it works really well. It's easy to squeeze 2-3 drops into the palm of my hand, then rub my hands together to distribute and massage onto my face. It's quite a watery serum, so would be excellent for layering with other products. It feels very comforting and moisturising and has a slight fresh floral fragrance. It's slighty shimmery so leaves a bit of a glow but it's not obnoxiously shiny. I loved using this serum so much. It's a truly lovely product.
