holi (oil) Ageless Face Serum 30ml

Turns a skincare routine into a skincare ritual. Feels wonderful

About my skin: Super dry and dull. I'm 32, so I have obvious signs of aging. I have hyperpigmentation and scars left over from my acne years. My skin is also extremely sensitive as I use tretinoin daily, so it's hard to find products that don't irritate me. I've been looking for products that can give me a boost in hydration as that is what I desperately need above all else. I was lucky to have the opportunity to give this luxury serum a try, and I'm really glad I did! My very first impressions the very moment I started using this were 1) "OH WOW! It has a really strong scent" and 2) "WOAH! This serum is much thicker than most." Scent: I can't quite describe what it smells like. It's not unpleasant (in my opinion), but it's good to be aware that it IS incredibly strong and may be overwhelming for some people. Texture: As mentioned, it's on the thick side! This is not a bad thing. Despite its thicker consistency, it doesn't leave my skin feeling tacky or gross. Other thoughts beyond my first impressions 👇 Absorption: When first putting it on, your skin will feel super greasy, but rest assured that this goes away VERY quickly. After about a minute or so, it's all absorbed and your skin just feels moisturized. Bottle: One of my favorite parts about this serum is its container. The bottle is gorgeous. It almost looks/feels like ceramic, but I'm not entirely sure what it's made out of. It looks and feels exactly as a $130 serum should. Results: I got this around March 27th, 2023, and it is now April 12th. I started using it two days after I received it and have been putting it on daily ever since. That's nearly two weeks, and I've already had great results. I typically put this on at night under my moisturizer, and when I wake up in the morning my face is noticeably more pump and hydrated. It's uncommon for my skin to react so positively as it has with this, so I'm quite happy with it. In conclusion, I am super grateful and happy to have tried this serum, and I would highly recommend it to anyone facing the same skincare concerns as me. It is on the pricey side, but it has fantastic ingredients so in my opinion, it's well worth every penny. If anything changes, I'll ensure to update my review.

The most striking thing abut the Agent Nateur - holi (oil) is the smell. It's so strong that I could smell it outside when I opened the door to pick it up off of my porch. For the first day or two it was hard to even have this in the house because it smelled so strong, but thankfully it faded somewhat - however it still smells extremely strong when you're using it and once you apply it you will smell it for hours. If you like the smell that may be a plus - if you don't (and I don't) it's a definite negative. As for the product itself, it's oil so your skin feels...oily. As long as you only use a few drops it absorbs pretty well but there's still a greasy feeling. The box advises to use this morning and night but there's no way I'd use something this heavy during the day. I've been using this nightly for about a week and my skin feels about the same as always. Maybe if you have extremely dry skin this would help to repair it but for my fairly ordinary 50 year old skin I'm not seeing much of a benefit and I'll probably be getting rid of it because of the smell. However if you like extremely strongly scented oils you might give it a try.

Love product. But you sent me wrong size. I paid for bigger size

I wanted to try this face oil because I had seen some great reviews for the product. I also have really dry skin, but only on my forehead region. I also thought at the steep price point that it would have great results. It comes in a porcelain feeling glass bottle with a dropper top. This oil does have a scent, but luckily I didn’t notice it being strong like others have experienced with theirs. I thought it had a floral scent with a hint of citrus like grapefruit. The consistency is fairy thick, and it recommends using 5-6 drops which I felt was a bit much which proved true after following the instructions. It left my skin looking glowing and radiant, but it also left it feeling heavy and greasy so much so that my hair kept sticking to my face. It absorbed somewhat, but not completely. The next time I used it I only used a few drops. It still provided the radiant glow, but still felt a bit heavy and sticky although it absorbed better than my first use. Although I love the way my skin looked, I still couldn’t get over the feeling it left behind, but maybe those that have really dry skin would love this product without the sticky and greasy feeling I experienced. I also feel the price is really really steep for such a small bottle. I could get behind the price if this was a product only meant to be used once or twice a week. Overall I loved the way it made my skin look, just wasn’t a fan of how it felt afterwards.
