Savar Rosehip Ultra Brightening Serum

Lightweight and moisturizing, this serum is perfect for someone who doesn't like original rosehip oil on its own. I use this every morning and nigh on my neck and chest where i have acne scaring and this has been working wonders! My skin is soft and glowy and hopefully over time will reduce my scaring. A little also goes a long way with this product which i love as it does have a higher price point - but hey! Sometimes you have to pay a little bit more for luxury. This has not broken me out either! Plus this smells like cold medicine i used to have when i was a child - and not the bad type! Like a sweet, sugary treat!

This claims that it is highly potent and jam packed with a lot of nutrients and anti-oxidants like extracts from rosehip, blackcurrant, gojiberry and lemon. It also contains melon fruit water which I found very unique and interesting as I have never seen that ingredient listed in any product before. The smell of this is also captivating as it smells very fresh, sweet and fruit like – but not the sick artificial fruit smell you remember from your roll on lip gloss when you were 7; the smell is more like when you mix a lot of really sweet fruits together in a smoothie and you take that first taste and you can smell the fruits in your cup, weird way of describing it I know, but I’m a smoothie junkie and I guess that’s just my way of saying that this bad boy smells fresh, natural and delicious. I’ve been using this product for a couple of months and I can honestly say that I have seen a difference in my skin. To be honest, I didn’t really need to wait so long to see the results because it was one of those products where you’re able to feel a difference as soon as you apply it and the morning after – at least that’s what it was like for me. Keep in mind, my skin has no middle ground. Something can either make my skin look absolutely perfect or…it can leave me with a million underground zits. Luckily, this left my skin looking bright, plump and feeling smooth.

I bought this because I'm all about skincare that brightens and the fact that it was made with natural ingredients was a plus. It's a light, slightly watery gel serum and the scent is a refreshing melon scent. Well, it smells like that to me and melon scents are one of my top faves. This serum has rosehip, blackcurrant, goji, kiwi, lemon fruits exacts plus bearberry leaf extract in a base of melon fruit water and glycerin. This is a lovely serum to apply and my skin soaks it up which makes it ideal for layering and it feels really comfortable on my skin. At the moment my skin is more dry and sensitive in places but I think that if my skin was more oily this serum would still be suitable and the extra hydration would help towards balancing it out. Now as lovely as this was to apply. I didn't really see any brightening results from using this. And I while I think this does help hydrate my skin a bit I don't think using this will make fine lines go away although the antioxidants do help towards anti-ageing. I have almost used up the bottle and I haven't seen it make a difference to my skin and coupled with the high price tag is the reason I'm not repurchasing.

I wasn't a huge fan of serums until Savar's Ultra Brightening Serum came along. Now I use them religiously, I go between this one and one other brand - depending which is at hand.

I love that this serum is "pure & natural" so I know my skin isn't absorbing any nasties. Not only that, this feels so nice on my skin and makes my skin feel really soft. The serum is very light so if you're not into oily skincare products then I recommend this. It absorbs quite quickly too. It smells really nice, quite subtle, it isn't a strong scent. The serum comes in a glass bottle with an oil dropper making it really easy to use.

I usually add this product to my moisturiser to make my moisturiser an extra bit hydrating on my skin, I use it sometimes directly to my skin as well. I didn't see results instantly but have noticed over a couple of months of use my skin is a lot more glowy and more healthy looking and have received compliments about it.
