What the gurus are saying

This serum earns strong praise for its antioxidant strength and fast-absorbing gel texture, which layers nicely under retinol and other treatments at night. Dr. Jenny Liu, who uses it herself, highlights how the resveratrol and vitamin E work together to repair skin and improve fine lines while you sleep. However, the price is steep, and one reviewer found The Ordinary's resveratrol formula (at triple the concentration) delivers better results for far less money, though she notes this serum is slightly more moisturizing and has a smoother jelly texture that spreads easily.

"Resveratrol B E is a nighttime antioxidant that really helps to improve radiance and firmness overnight as you sleep. Resveratrol contains 1% Resveratrol which is a great antioxidant that helps to support collagen, improve fine lines, and also helps to improve skin tone and hyperpigmentation. It also contains Boesine and 1% vitamin E that really just helps to optimize your skin repair as you sleep. So highly recommend for anyone that's ready to elevate their anti-aging routine to the next level."

"There is one product that's a little bit more expensive that I use myself that I love and it's great, and it's from SkinCeuticals, their Resveratrol B E. This is a gel serum that you use at night. [...] It's great for those looking for an anti-aging serum to target fine lines and wrinkles that you can certainly use alongside your topical retinol."

"Resveratrol is a very important antioxidant found in berries and grapes, it's actually a polyphenol. [...] One that I've used for many years is from SkinCeuticals, their Resveratrol B E. That is more an evening repair serum to target anti-aging concerns."

"The texture is almost like a jelly so it does spread nicely. It is a little bit more moisturizing than the Ordinary one in my opinion, and this one also layers up nicely with vitamin C. But for the price point and for what it is, I much rather use the Ordinary Resveratrol Plus Ferulic because again you get three percent, it's stronger, and I do feel like the Ordinary one works a lot better than this one. So I won't be buying this one again."

What the evidence says.

Independent of what the gurus think, this is what the published research supports about the main active ingredients here.

Niacinamide

Niacinamide has evidence behind it for redness, uneven tone and supporting the skin barrier, and it is usually well tolerated even by skin that reacts to most things.

Vitamin E

Vitamin E is an antioxidant, and it is often in a formula to keep the other ingredients stable rather than as the active itself. It pairs well with vitamin C, though on its own the evidence for visible change is limited.
