What the gurus are saying

This body serum earns genuine enthusiasm from the gurus who tried it, with praise for how it feels on skin. The main trade-off worth knowing: it depletes fairly quickly with regular use. One reviewer also noted the original packaging was tricky to fully empty, though the brand appears to have redesigned it since then.

"This is Josh Rosebrook's body serum and I would buy it again in a heartbeat if I had access to it, it is glorious on the skin. I do have one small complaint though, I find that I go through it too quickly. [...] I also wasn't a fan of the packaging, even though it's a nice glass bottle it was really tricky to get every last bit out of it, though the packaging looks different now on their website so this could be a serious upgrade."

"It does the same thing to your skin: overnight you have that brightness, the soft baby skin. This is so hydrating, it's also lightly moisturizing as well, and genuinely just makes my skin glow. During the summer it's perfect, but also during the winter time I feel like my skin still glows on the days that I use this. I can use it on its own. It smells intoxicating, it's that natural hibiscus scent to it. I love it."

What the evidence says.

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

Alpha hydroxy acids

Alpha hydroxy acids loosen the bonds holding dead cells at the surface. The evidence supports smoother texture and more even tone over time, and they can leave skin more sensitive to sun.

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.
