What the gurus are saying

The fragrance in this serum divides opinions, with some finding it unnecessary in a leave-on product, though the hydration itself earns praise. What gurus keep circling back to is that comparable hydrating serums from Korean and Japanese brands deliver similar or better results at a lower price point, which means those already exploring broader skincare options may find it less competitive than alternatives on the market.

"It does have fragrance which I don't like. I try and avoid fragrance in leave-on products. This was gifted to me and it's actually not bad, but having used 90, I say 95 percent of those, I could say with 100 certainty that there is no reason in my mind to buy this. There's just so many good hydrating Korean toners, Japanese toners that deliver better results than what I am seeing with this. This is hydrating for sure, but once you have dipped your toes in the Korean and Japanese skincare game, this kind of thing is just not as competitive now. We don't need to be paying this kind of dollar anymore for a hydrating antioxidant-rich serum."

"I've been trying to use this Lancôme Genifique, this is a good product actually in my opinion aside from the fragrance, but I find that I get similar if not the same results using less expensive alternatives out there."

"The Lancôme Genifique, this has the same bifida ferment lysate as the industry one. It's a hydrating serum that I'm using to finish off because I don't want to waste the product."
