Smooth formula which sinks into the skin effortlessly. I have used retinols before and didn't have nay dryness or reactions when switching to this product.

The first time I used it, I had quite a bit of pilling! Then, I received the Dr. Sam cleanser. When I cleanse with that & then use the Nightly Serum the pilling is less but is still happens especially on my lower cheek areas. The pilling is frustrating as I feel it isn't absorbing & I am rubbing it all off. Help please

I really wanted to love this serum, as I love everything else I've purchased of Dr Sam's, but unfortunately even following the recommended twice a week with a moisture sandwich approach for a month didn't stop my skin completely reacting when I finally applied it without a base layer of moisturiser one evening. Took a couple of weeks of intense ceremide creams to repair my skin and the hideous breakout that came with it. I've never had a reaction to products that contain retinol or bakuchiol before - perhaps it's the concentrations that are different here that my skin doesn't like. I'm so disappointed as I know I'm very much in the minority here and for most people this serum is a wonder product! Still giving the product two stars as the quality of the product is definitely great.

I have been using this serum for about 2 years now and make sure I never run out. I recommend it to all my friends. Even though it is packed full of active ingredients my skin tolerates it well and can be confident I am doing everything I can to keep my skin healthy and beautiful.

This serum of Dr Sam is my new hero! It combines multiple actives that are highly effective and my skin absolutely adores (granactive retinoid, niacinamide, azelaic acid) in one easy step. I am using it now for a couple of weeks and haven't experienced any irritation whatsoever, which is rare for me considering my skin is very sensitive and prone to redness and rosacea. It also has a very pleasant texture and I wake up every morning with super soft and clear skin. One amazing serum that does it all!

At 49 my skin seems to have taken on the hormonal changes with avengancewhich has given me breakouts like I've never had before......coupled with a whole load of stress and poor sleep it's sadly been worse than ever. Like lots of us, I see a new 'wonder' product and think it will be my skins saviour only to find you spend a fortune and nothing improves. I saw Dr Sam's on FB and thought one last change before I give up! So glad I have!!!!! Just ordered the flawless nightly serum and the gossamer spf to start as I'm always convinced spf breaks me out but being a redhead I need it! The serum is BEAUTIFUL. I watched the video and followed the advice about eye moisturiser goggles and the thirteen point technique and off I went! No stinging, no dryness, just lovely soft skin in the mornings. My breakouts are getting less and (I know it's sad) I actually look forward to putting this on!! It is making a difference to my skin and I feel more confident that there's someone behind it that actually knows what they're doing and hasn't gone nuts with the packaging but has but the effort into the contents! I am finishing up the previous 'other' products I had purchased and ordering the cleanser and moisturiser now. I think I had fallen into the trap of using so many different serums, masks, oils, toners etc etc - all claiming to improve skin that I was just being too harsh on it. Simple from now on!

I have been using Flawless Nightly for 9 months and my skin is smoother, (I have rosacea) definitely reflects the light nicely, and any hormonal breakouts I had (slight) are quick to dissipate. My only gripe is that until I contacted the team about problems with the pump, I was probably throwing away a good amount of product in each container. There's a trick (tapping and pumping upside down) to ensure the pump dispenses everything in the packaging or you don't get to use the full contents. My bottles last longer now and so I will continue to use it, as I do love it
