Estee Lauder Illuminating Serum

I received a 15ml bottlle for free when I purchased a face wash otherwise I would never be able own this :)

I tried the serum at night as I'm usually careful with new serums during the day as I have an oily skin that needs no excuse to be more oily.

I cleansed my face and applied the serum but did not add a moisturiser because I wanted to test the full extent of the serum.

My face was so soft and silky in the morning and my pores almost appeared to have diminished a wee bit. I was really happy that my skin had the feeling of being "prepared" for the day ahead because it was treated the night before. I had enough to last me 3 nights and my skin and such a good 3 nights pampering.

I would definitely use it again but it's abit out of my price range but one day when I'm big and famous I'll own tonnes of this :)

I absolutely adore this product for a few reasons.. I know that serums aren't generally targeted to younger Women but this product is fab for all ages. I also think you cannot go past this as part of your Makeup routine. So it is already a multi purpose product in my books! I always get asked how i get a pretty feminine glow, i make no secrets of how much of a fan i am of illuminating products and this is one of my top secrets.. Or not so top secret now! I always blend a drop of this into my liquid foundation or CC cream.. Not only does it reduce the appearance of 'cakeyness' in medium-full coverage foundations but the finish and glow you will get is beyond gorgeous! I highly recommend this product.
