What the gurus are saying

Gurus split sharply on efficacy. One found it underwhelming despite solid ingredients, while another praised its deep hydration delivery and ability to soothe dehydrated, tight skin without heaviness. The consensus point is the lightweight gel texture belies substantial moisturizing action, though opinions diverge on whether that translates to real results.

"This is a vegan formula with no animal-derived ingredients. It has mastixic acid and matasic acid, which are compounds from centella that are anti-inflammatory, and it has hyaluronic acid with a few polymers to hydrate. No niacinamide for those of you who are sensitive. This is the type of thing that you put on as a first step after cleansing, and by improving moisture retention and moisture content in the stratum corneum, it helps improve barrier function. You get smoother, more hydrated skin and less irritation. But honestly, I was not impressed with the performance of this at all. It was just very underwhelming."

"This has a thin runny gel texture and at first you may be thinking that it's actually going to perform in a more lightweight manner than other serums, but no it really does not, appearances can be deceiving. While it looks a little bit looser, this dives deep into your skin hydration. This is a very appropriately named line; they did a great job naming this because that's exactly the sensation you get. As this gets into your skin, if other lines kind of go a little bit deeper than just on top, this goes down to the source of your dehydration. It's very, very interesting, very refreshing, incredibly like a hydration bomb deep within your skin. While it's not sticky and doesn't have a shiny greasy look and still feels very breathable and light on my combination skin, there's this really interesting effect that once it does dive deep into your skin, it's almost like it locks in place there deep in your skin, not on top. Sometimes serums sit on top of your skin and that's how they keep the hydration in place, but there's something special about this line that it kind of locks in place a little deeper into your skin. If you are suffering with dehydration that feels like it's in your skin, a little bit tight and a little bit irritated, that is an incredibly soothing feeling."
