I have never really been in to serums or plumping creams. To me it just seemed like an extra step in an already busy morning when doing my skin regime. Well let me just serve myself up a bowl of my words and I shall eat them now. I got this in one of the Best Beauty Box Ever that I bought a wee while back. I love love that it has a pump applicator rather than a dropper like alot of serum type skin care products do. I also like that the bottle is glass......could perhaps be reused or recycled.
The serum itself is quite thin but stays together nice enough so it comes out in a blob. To me it smells a tad of ylang ylang or some other essential oil that I can't quite pout my finger on. I find less is more when it comes to the amount I use. It means it has lasted for quite a while now.
I don't get alot of sleep (thanks to milking cows and a toddler) so am always looking quite tired or blah. Since using this, especially under my eye area my skin is alot more plumped and less tired looking. So to answer one of the questions, yes is does what it promises. I have repurchased twice so it is a winner, winner chicken dinner in my makeup bag.
Because of the low price I used this for a whole lot of time with no improvement. I do have rather deep lines so that is probably way.
