I got this in the Mother’s Day pack so I followed the instructions and used it before moisturiser. With 3 days I was breaking out with pimples so stopped and they went away. I gave it to someone else but she irregularly uses it and hasn’t reported any problems. Just not for me.

Reviews
The serum feels very sticky on the face and feels almost thin not as smooth and bouncy as other serums I have had. I was looking forward to using this but was disappointed.
I must admit, I had high expectations after reading the blurb - and promises - and noting the price.
The packaging is lovely; very appealing and well designed, credit to the designer., and the pump bottle makes for clean, easy, and economical use. The info leaflet enclosed makes for interesting and inviting reading.
The serum itself is light, but leaves a stickiness, which lasts several minutes, which I got used to. I didn't warm to the fragrance, however.
While I did finish the product, my skin didn't look noticeably different, and I don't feel there was any benefit from using this product.
There are other excellent natural and organic products which are far more effective, and half the price.
Just like the reviewer below, I brought this on a 3 for 2 deal and purchased it after reading a lot on the successful clinical trials. I am a big fan of Snowberry and as I've had such success with their other products I thought this would be brilliant. This Serum is almost 3 times the price of their New Radiance Serum, and I honestly find this to be too heavy for my skin (normal/ oily). I have been using this for 3-4 months and while it is indeed good, it is just not as good for my oily skin as the New Radiance serum is. I would recommend this if you have mature/ dry skin and if the price is not a major barrier for you.
A 4ml sample of Snowberry Intensive Renewal Face Serum was the Day 1 gift in a 2017 Beauty Advent Calendar.
This anti-aging serum is a peachy-colored liquid gel, with a fruity scent. It contains Vitamin B3, Vitamin C, Vitamin E, Ubiquinone (a natural anti-oxidant), and Hyaluronic Acid (a humectant) to help increase skin hydration and plumping. Macadamia nut and Sunflower Seed oils act as a skin-softening base and provide Omega 3 and 6 essential fatty acids to the skin. It also promises to stimulate the skin’s natural collagen, elastin and glycan production, and to increase skin radiance and improve skin tone.
After reading all that, I was really expecting a lot from this little tube of serum. 4ml may not seem like a lot, but it lasted me a month, and as I have oily skin, I used this serum at night instead of a night cream. It does state on Snowberry's website that no other product should be applied for at least 5 minutes after the Serum, to allow sufficient time for eProlex™ activation.
Yes, I liked the feel and smell of the serum, and it did hydrate my skin well, but I didn't see any difference in the fine lines around my eyes. The little vacuum pump sample bottle ensured that every last drop was used, but would I purchase a full sized bottle? Probably not. I just feel that this product is seriously overpriced. It is very expensive, and there's no way I can justify spending that much money on a facial serum.
Apparently, Snowberry's New Radiance Face Serum is just as good, and is more affordable, so I may give that one a try the next time I'm looking for a serum.
Tips: Use sparingly, one pump was sufficient for my face and neck.
I received a deluxe sample of this in my Beautiful Christmas NZ advent calendar. The sample was enough to last me around three weeks, using it every day in the morning. I have previously used Snowberry's New Radiance serum before and was interested to see how they compared as there is a considerable price difference.
Like the other serum, one pump is enough to cover my whole neck and face even though this is quite a thin gel. It absorbs immediately and leaves skin feeling smooth. Again, like the other serum you have to allow five minutes for it to works it's magic before applying moisturiser over top. Even if I don't get around to putting another product over top in this current heat, my skin still feels smooth and never feels tight.
During the three weeks that I used this, my fine lines do seem to have softened. It would be interesting to see what the long term affects of using this would be. However, I don't really see any difference between this and the much more affordable New Radiance serum. For that reason, I probably won't be purchasing this but it has reminded me how great the other serum is and to buy that again.
I picked this product up from the Rewards Vault and I was quite excited to try it as I have used another Snowberry product before and really liked it.
If I'm honest, when I saw that this serum was $109, I had fairly high expectations for it.
Now don't get me wrong, it's nice. It smells good and makes my skin feel smooth. But, at $109 for a pretty small bottle of serum, I'd be expecting some pretty impressive results. I can't say there were any pretty impressive results.
Personally I think the Snowberry Youth Renewing Face Serum with eProlex should be priced around the $50 mark.
I definitely wouldn't go out and buy it for full price.
Received in the Xmas BBBE. Love the beautifully embossed box it came in. The packaging itself is a white pump top container. Quite plain really but matches the rest of the range. Looks nice when lined up with the other products. Easy and controlled dispenser, no product waste which is a benefit.
Slightly sticky on application. Dries down though. Layers well with my other products. Will finish this is in about a month and a half of use, which is quite fast compared to other serums I have used that last a few months.
At the price point rrp $110 (though I just did a search online and it can be find for half price) there is no way I would repurchase. I've used serums at a more affordable price point and seen the same results
This is the second product of Snowberry's that I find the pump does not work well. This is a major disappointment as the same with the night cream I struggle to get enough product out so by the time I have shaken and repumped I am over trying. When I have managed to get enough product I love it but now I can't wait to finish the product so I can throw containers away.What a shame as this is the only reason I have marked the product down.
Tips: If pump is an issue try shaking for a while
Found the smell really unpleasant. It did nothing for my skin. I have used much cheaper and had better results and much better experience. It also made my pore blocked and I broke out.
Used it for two weeks and couldn't stand it any longer. Threw it out.
Tips: Don't buy it
