    What the gurus are saying

    A watery, fragrance-free serum that calms irritation and hydration without the price tag of premium brands. Gurus praise its mushroom blend (particularly for anti-inflammatory and anti-glycation benefits) and note it layers beautifully in morning or evening routines. Those with dry or irritated winter skin find it especially soothing, and a little goes a long way.

    "This one's fragrance free. This one's got a really nice watery texture to it, so a little bit of it goes a long way. [...] I'll just pat onto my skin after cleansing, typically in my morning routine or occasionally my evening routine, but it's really nice just to add a nice light layer of some good antioxidants. It sets to a really natural finish and it layers well under other products, so it makes it a really nice additional layer of hydration."

    "I really enjoy this stuff. I've got a backup of it now. It's super light. You can use it kind of like an essence, almost, and pad it on your skin, and it's really nice to give skin some nice moisture and hydration."

    "So I'll typically use this like after I cleanse and tone, and then I'll use this, or I'll use this after if I use another essence I'll use this right after. It's really nice, lots of good ingredients, no fragrance. Mushroom is in there and it's got some nice extracts and things like that. When I first picked this up I thought maybe it would have fragrance in it but it didn't, and I think most products from VEGREEN don't have fragrance or a lot of most of them are unscented. I'm just loving it."
    What Are Anti-Glycation End Products & Why They are Important for Skincare & Anti-Aging
    "So this stuff is about 15 bucks. [...] This one contains Reishi mushroom, it's a really strong anti-glycation ingredient. It also has skin-protecting, anti-inflammatory and brightening benefits for the skin. And this stuff is so nice. It's just got this wonderful watery texture so you can really add it into your routine whenever. [...] Very nice, very light, feels really nice on the skin, and it works well for most skin types. So this one's worth checking out."

    "I believe this came out this year, I could be wrong it might have come out at the end of last year. It [...] contains several mushroom ingredients and several ferments to hydrate and protect skin, gives a radiant finish. I think it's a good alternative to a lot of the more expensive Biophile products as well as the Advanced Night Repair Serum from Estee Lauder. I think it's a nice alternative to that with its ferments in there."
    VEGREEN Skincare Skin Barrier Reishi Serum Review, How to Use, Dupes & Alternatives
    "The promises this product makes, offering a hydrating layer for skin, calming skin, and giving skin a more radiant appearance, I believe this hits the note on every single one of those. It delivers on all of them. Not all products offer a lot of things and don't end up meeting the occasion, but this one hits everything, so I'm pretty impressed with it. My skin feels super nice since adding this into my routine. It gives skin a nice glow without being too greasy and without being irritating."

    "The Vegreen Skin Barrier Reishi Serum has fermented ingredients and collagen from mushrooms for hydration and barrier support, but I prefer The Ordinary Soothing and Barrier Support Serum out of the two. My barrier only needs a little support in the cold though, I don't really struggle, so I am not that picky here."

    "Using this for just a couple of nights you'll already see an improvement. Use it in the long term and your skin barrier will be thanking you and honestly in tiptop health. This will prevent long-term dehydration and it's such a simple serum to slot into your skincare routine. It'll work with anything. If you're here thinking I just want to choose one of these products mentioned today, choose this one. Slot it anywhere in your skincare regime."

    "This is their Skin Barrier Repair Serum. Great if your skin's going through it. I personally don't use this in summer because my skin doesn't need it, but in winter when I'm a little bit more dry and prone to irritation, this never leaves my side. It calms so well, just amazing."

    "This is the barrier serum, great if you've got impaired barrier function, skin that's very persistently dry. This could really really work and I love it. I'm on my third bottle of it now. [...] I really do love this for just calming and soothing the skin."
