So I'm very much a skeptic when it comes to serums - especially anything that claims to reverse the signs of aging. I've tried other drugstore brands before (Aveeno, Olay, Garnier, etc.) and have been disappointed by the lack of results or they've irritated my skin like crazy because they're so harsh (disclaimer: I do have somewhat sensitive skin). I actually found this product in a two pack at Costco for $29 and jumped on it because, hey, Costco will take anything back if you're not satisfied.

Well this product shocked me. I tried it for the first time before bed and when I woke up the next morning, I noticed a difference the moment I looked in the mirror. Like, it actually startled me. My face was visibly firmer looking, my fine wrinkles looked less prominent (not that I have a ton, but I do have fine lines around my mouth and eyes), and my skin tone looked more even. My mother even commented that she noticed my freckles more as if the serum had brightened my face. Seriously.

For the price, it's well worth it for the work it did on improving my skin. Apparently it doesn't have any antioxidants, so that might be a slight knock against it but it's the most affordable anti-aging product I've tried that actually showed visible changes.
