I was sent the complete Pond's flawless radiance range after having a not so great experience with their day cream. I've been using the serum for 3 weeks now. The serum has a similar texture to a foundation primer as it has a gel consistency but once absorbed it has a velvety finish. I applied it only at night as I didn't want to add another step to my morning routine. I have darker areas around my mouth, nose and on my forehead which is common on women of colour. This serum has made a huge difference in reducing the discolouration as well as fading a mark left by a recent spot. I highly recommend this product.
