"These are the new Drunk Elephant B-Goldie Bright [...] Drops. This has five percent niacinamide in it. [...] It's like a golden serum. [...] You can see on my hands the level of sheen it gives, so it's definitely going to give you a glow, but it feels like skincare because it kind of is skincare, which I really love. I'm so excited I'm literally going to keep these upstairs in my skincare drawer."

"The B Goldie Bright Drops which is essentially again the same thing as the de bronzi serum except it's gold so you mix it in and it makes you look gold instead of bronze. I don't know who wants to look gold but they're kind of relying on their fans and setting out products for review."

What the evidence says.

Independent of what the gurus think, this is what the published research supports about the main active ingredients here.

Niacinamide

Niacinamide has evidence behind it for redness, uneven tone and supporting the skin barrier, and it is usually well tolerated even by skin that reacts to most things.

Humectants and emollients

Ingredients like these draw water into the surface layers and slow how fast it leaves. The evidence is for comfort, softness and hydration rather than for changing the structure of the skin.

Vitamin E

Vitamin E is an antioxidant, and it is often in a formula to keep the other ingredients stable rather than as the active itself. It pairs well with vitamin C, though on its own the evidence for visible change is limited.
