What the gurus are saying

Unanimous yay from 2 reviewers. Mad About Skin and Kelly Driscoll both rate it highly. Top take: "A great alternative to the Face Theory ectoin serum is the Bellflower ectoin. It has the same great lightweight finish and the same great concentration of that key ectoin ingredient, and it works just as well.", Mad About Skin.

"A great alternative to the Face Theory ectoin serum is the Bellflower ectoin. It has the same great lightweight finish and the same great concentration of that key ectoin ingredient, and it works just as well. You can really use these two interchangeably depending on what's most accessible wherever you live."

"This would be a great product to consider because ectoin is the only star ingredient here. Bellflower has taken 3% of ectoin, added in some humectant, some other texture enhancers, and that's it, there's nothing else going on here. Great if you want to isolate the benefits of ectoin, maybe you're looking for an antioxidant to boost your sunscreen in the morning, this would be a great way to do that. But also great for those who are looking for really minimal ingredients in their skincare products. If you're trying to avoid hyaluronic acid or you're trying to avoid niacinamide, this is a great product because it really sidesteps a lot of those potential common irritants. The texture is a hydrating gel, a little bit runny, it feels very hydrating on the skin. It's one of those hydrating textures that feels like it really dives in deep and kind of floods the skin with hydration, feels really good. There's just a touch of tack on the top, nothing that wouldn't be solved by putting your moisturizer or sunscreen on top of this."

"Bellflower's Ectoin 3% Serum retails about thirteen dollars. This is an ingredient I've been seeing trending upwards in the skincare world over the past year, and I think it's just going to keep getting bigger. It has antioxidant properties and helps protect your skin from pollution and environmental stressors. [...] It can also help with skin hydration, strengthening your skin barrier, and [...] some well-aging benefits for the skin. This serum has three percent, which I think is a pretty good amount to get in a really simple formula. Bellflower focuses on getting those active ingredients into your skincare routine at a really affordable price without messing around with packaging or fragrance. [...] You're just going to get the ingredient, which is A-Okay with something so amazing for the skin."
