Serums2 reviews
Double Serum Complete Age-Defying Concentrate
Clarins Double Serum Complete Age-Defying Concentrate
"The Double Serum from Clarins has a dual serum system with both hydric and lipidic components to address chronological and environmental causes of aging. I really like that they have control over the quality and provenance of their plant extracts since they grow them [...] on their own farms. Over the past few months, I've been reaching for this again and again and again, and it's become a regular part of my daily routine."

"The Double Serum Eye from Clarins is designed to address concerns specific to the eye area like fine lines, darkness under the eye, and puffiness. The application is very relaxing, and I've been reaching for it again and again over the past few months as part of my regular routine."

Altreno Tretinoin Lotion 0.05%
"[Altreno] Tretinoin Lotion is one of my favorites. One thing that makes this one super gentle is likely the vehicle that it comes in. It's almost gel-like, not truly a lotion. No night routine for me is complete without a retinoid."
