I use this every night. I cleanse with flawless cleanser, then apply it, then flawless moisturiser. Wake up to lovely soft clear skin. Very happy with this product.

I used this serum to prepare my skin for going back to a retinol and it’s so gentle and nice to use.

I have avoided retinols due to dry and sensitive skin, but have been nothing short of impressed by this serum. Had a slight purge, which is normal but the formula has kept my irritant prone skin happy, with no dryness, flaking or burns. Will be continuing to use going forward.

Used to help combat closed comedones on cheeks and foreheads. At first I thought it was purging and dr Sam’s confirmed this. I used this product for 12 weeks in total, the last 4 being the worst. After sending a picture to dr Sam’s when my skin had become angry and red they replied telling me it was still purging and to continue until the 12 week mark. By 12 weeks, my skin has broke out in angry, red, itchy cystic pimples all over my face. When I asked dr Sam’s about this they then transferred me to the reaction team which confirmed I had reacted to this product. 10 weeks after stopping this product my skin has calmed down A LOT but I am let with so much PIE that it has affected my confidence. I get married in 5 weeks time and due to this product my skin is definitely not in the best place I wished for it to be.

Hi Jade, some people do experience purging when introducing new actives, so whilst this is not an unusual skin response in the first 3 months of using an active product we're really sorry to hear about how this affected your skin and confidence. We've been in touch directly throughout, and have contacted you again directly to provide further guidance.

Love this gentle but effective serum. It's my favourite Dr Sam product.

Having sensitive skin I have always been reluctant to try a retinoid. This product is amazing, and am luckily to have had no purging or peeling.

I purchased Flawless Nightly Serum about 2 weeks ago by using my personalised skincare routine through the website. I have found this product great, it provides a light cover over your skin after using the Dr Sam’s cleanser and before applying moisturiser. I love the way it gives my skin a slight shine and extra protection through the night.

Have been using another brand and built up to second strength - used this last night for the first time, so too early to see any thing but didn't sting or cause irritation and absorbed faitly quickly
