5 experts · Moderate agreementWhat the gurus are saying
Not ready to commit to vitamin C? This feather-light CoQ10 serum is what the gurus point to as the morning swap, an antioxidant that soaks in without a greasy trace and leaves a luminous glow. They like that it guards against pollution and sun stress, that the ingredient list stays short, and that it slips under moisturizer and sunscreen. It's also one of the brand's first launches and still a bestseller.
