I'm a big believer in serums as an integral step in my skincare regimen as they usually contain a higher concentration of active ingredients to help address certain skin concerns. I was thrilled when I had the chance to try out this Valentia Even Glow Serum which claims to repair, refresh, renew and restore evenness to your skin.
About the Brand: Valentia Skin Care aims to provide consumers with a greater level of overall happiness with their appearance by creating strategic formulations with powerful natural ingredients that have been scientifically proven to succeed in giving skin a natural and radiant glow that contributes to a youthful look.
Key Ingredients: 20% Vitamin C to promote and protect the skin's natural processes, Organic Rosehip Seed Oil for anti-aging and skin rejuvenation, Organic Sea Buckthorn Oil to provide potent healing antioxidant effects, Resistem (Plant Stem Cells) to reduce inflammation and promote faster skin tissue regeneration, Hyaluronic Acid (Botanical) to promote and help moisture retention, Green Tea Extract to contribute to the overall antioxidant and anti-inflammatory benefits.
Packaging: A dark amber glass bottle with an elegant looking white and gold label and box. The product is dispensed via a dropper which I love because it's easy to control and hygienic.
Price: Usually $85 but currently on sale for $35 through Amazon for 1.18 fl. oz./35 ml.
My Impressions: I've been on a lucky roll with not having any reactions with new skincare products lately so this serum had a smooth transition into my routine. It is a yellow orange color with a light natural citrus scent and the consistency of a viscous lotion. I've been applying it twice a day in between my toner and moisturizers. The product absorbs easily with a smooth finish and wears just fine under my moisturizer, BB cream and sunscreen during the day. After a little more than a week and a half of use, I can already see a slight improvement in the smoothness and clarity of my skin. However I was most impressed by how this seemed to help clear a breakout that I was on the verge of getting. It kind of just went away and that was pretty cool. Given the results I've experienced so far, I plan on continuing use of this serum. I can feel good about using this as an antioxidant treatment knowing that the natural ingredients are positively benefiting my skin and I wouldn't mind some continued improvement as well.
Valentia Even Glow Serum is sold exclusively through Amazon and it evens comes with a 90 day money back guarantee. To learn more about the brand and their products, visit Valentia's website.
