L'Oreal Skin Genesis Serum

First of all, I love the packaging. It's designed to look futuristic, with a metal-type capsule suspended in the round container. I think it looks more expensive than it looks. The bottle is quite small, portable and light. The serum is dispensed from a pump, which releases just a small amount of the serum at a time - I wasted one drop of the product due to squirting.

The serum itself is a colourless and odourless gel with a thin consistency. It's pretty sticky. When I apply it to my face, I usually feel a bit uncomfortable and I often feel like reaching for a tissue so I can dab the excess off. It absorbs pretty quickly though and I usually apply my moisturiser straight after.

I have been using this serum for a few months now and I have to say it does what it promises it will. My skin has a smoother textures and much more even tone. I usually apply it before going to bed and I wake up with a fresh face, soft skin and no red blotches or anything similarly nasty.

The bottle says that its for all skin types - my skin is normal/dry. I'm not sure if its supposed to be an anti-aging product or not. The description on the box is pretty vague about it.

So, for its price, this product is great. I would definately recommend it, especially for winter when your skin needs an extra boost.
