Nu'trir - Collagen Boosting Peptide Serum



This serum is really nice; its a good consistency, absorbs really well, and isn't sticky.
It doesn't have any parabens, petrolatum (petroleum jelly), SLS (Sodium Lauryl Sulfate), mineral oils, sulphates, silicones, phthalates, PEG's (Polyethylene glycols), petrochemicals, artificial colours, or fragrances. 
It has grapeseed, olive, and rosemany oils.

The scent is like soft lemonade with herbs, it's really nice.

The rose gold pump on it looks really good, the packaging is nice.

After using it for a while, my skin is nice.
It would be great paired with a moisturiser as well over the top.
It is non-irritating.

It does have a bit of a yellow tint which you can see on the skin, but if you use it at night it is fine.
The colour isn't a stain that stays on the skin.

It doesn't spread to well on the skin, so you use a bit each time. 
The fact you get so little in a bottle doesn't feel great.

Price: 3/5 ($34.95 for 15mL)
Scent: 5/5
Effectiveness: 3/5 (because of small amount actually in the bottle and how much you have to use)

Healthy Care - Face Serum - Gold Flake Anti-Aging


This serum contains gold flakes, RNA, DNA, and placenta (eh, got to do something with this).
It smells nice, a bit like lavender.

It isn't sticky, absorbs quickly, and adds a little gold shimmer (don't worry, it isn't crazy).
It left my skin looking refreshed.

Price: 5/5 ($14.99 for 50mL)
Scent: 4.5/5
Effectiveness: 4/5

Lacura - Skin Science - Cuvée Royal - Serum Concentrate


This was a nice fun serum. It absorbed well, wasn't sticky, and had these cute gold beads that break up into fine gold sparkles only when they leave the container.

It contains grape extracts (hence the link to being like wine) and QT40 (which is said to be a 'skin activator'). It is meant to support collagen and elastin, prevent sagging, and improve contour.

It is aimed at the +35 demographic, but nobody tells me what to do!

It smells like white wine to me and it lasted about 2 months, each night I used about 3 pumps to cover my face (hur hur hur).

The Dionysus of face serums, wine and satire!

The container was a glass cylinder with silver-toned metal hardware. The rose gold toned, matte cap STAYED ON like a cap should!
As you used it, the internal base lifted up, so nary a drop was wasted.

Overall, I loved this!

Price: 3/5 ($24.99 for 50mL)
Scent: 4/5
Effectiveness: 5/5
