Mineaderm Vitamin C Serum with Hyaluronic Acid | Anti-Aging and Firm Wrinkles Retinol Hydrating Serum for Face | Brightening Facial Serum with Retinol and Molecular Encapsulation - Reduces Dark Spots

I'm a big skincare fanatic, and love trying out new products. This 'Mineaderm' Anti-Aging and Wrinkle Retinol Serum has worked very well for me so far... This comes in a nice (30ml) bottle, with a push-pump top; this makes it easy to dispense the appropriate amount per application. I've found that it doesn't take a lot to get the job done, and this has been pleasant to use. The serum does feel a tiny bit sticky when I first apply it, but then dries and feels like it's deeply in my skin. I did a skin patch test prior to using on my face, as some retinol products are hard for my sensitive skin. But this product has been gentle enough for me to use, and I feel like it really has been working for me. I find it interesting that this serum includes Molecular Encapsulation, Plant Stem Cell Technology, Hyaluronic Acid, Ceramide & Vitamin C; which all seems to work well together. My skin looks very hydrated, nourished, glowing, and my overall skintone looks brighter. I'm really liking this product a lot, and it's becoming one of my favorite skincare products to use daily. I'm very pleased with it.

I am not familiar with the idea of molecular encapsulation so just going off what I do know of retinol, I find this to be an easy to apply serum. Normally retinol is something that people need to ease into using since it can be harsh for skin. I have never used retinol so I wasn't sure if this would be the case for me. I didn't bother testing it on my skin, which in retrospect was a bit foolish since I do tend to have dry and sensitive skin. However, I was pleasantly surprised when I felt no negative reactions or stinging upon application. I put this all over my face, didn't bother doing a cheek test either. It was cooling and easy to apply and absorbed quickly. It did not leave my skin feeling dry and to further see if anything else would happen, I did not put anything on after, like I normally would. The next morning my skin felt and looked fine. It was slightly moisturized still and didn't feel like I needed to apply moisturizer. My skin did feel nice and smooth.I know that retinol is normally suggested to be put on in the evening to reduce the sensitivity to the sun but I applied it morning and evening (with sunblock during the day) and had no issue. Like I said previously, not sure if it's the molecular encapsulation at work here or what. It also has vitamin C as well and normally it is suggested to use the vitamin C in the morning and the retinol at night but they are together in this serum. This is kind of like an all in one anti-aging/aging repair serum in that sense. There are a lot of ingredients in this serum that are good for the skin. This lists no fragrance but it smells very slightly of rose to me but not overwhelming strong, like you need to really smell in the bottle. On your face it fades quickly and is not an issue. I will keep using this and see if it helps.

I’ve tried many serums over the years and I can say this has to be one of my favorites. It’s packed with beneficial ingredients especially hyaluronic acid, vitamin C and plant stem cells. I did buy a serum at my dermatologist’s office with stem cells and it was probably double the price. It’s suppose to help with increased collagen production which in turn should help improve the skin’s appearance. Hopefully tighten up my skin a bit and soften those fine lines with consistent use. This serum is a medium consistency and spread well on my skin (you don’t need a lot) and it absorbed rather quickly. My skin felt so soft and supple and I did not have any irritation at all from it. It definitely helped soften up my fine lines and gave my face a smoother appearance , albeit temporary. There’s no scent to the serum. Would definitely order again.

This serum feels and smells so good. It moisturizes and leaves me with a healthy looking skin on my face. However, when I go to be, I feel the pillow sticking to my face due to the serum.The price is crazy high and overexaggerated, I think.

I have tried so many different brands of serums over the years and am always eager to try anything new. I was a bit hesitant with this particular serum just because I have never heard of the brand and couldn't really find much information on it. It looks to be from Turkey, but I felt reassured when I saw that it is distributed from a location very close to my home. But, with that said, I am extremely picky and won't even patch test a new product unless it checks all of my boxes including being fragrance and gluten free amongst many others. So, thankfully, this serum is truly free of scent and after doing a wrist patch test as the brand suggested, my sensitive skin was totally fine. I find that wrist patch tests don't really do anything for me though--I usually test on one side of my cheek and neck to see if it will actually cause any irritation. So wrist test first, then cheek and neck test just to make sure because I have had too many bad reactions in the past that take me too many days to recover from. I did feel the slightest itch and tingle when first applying to my cheek so I was worried and ready to wash it right off, but then it settled down and hasn't caused any irritation since. It is still too early to say if this is truly a five star serum, but so far so good...I like the ingredients and will continue using to see if it actually makes a difference in the appearance of my skin by the end of the bottle. If I actually reorder, I would certainly update this review.

This retinol serum comes in an easy to use pump and is well sealed. It absorbs very well and doesn't leave my skin sticky or greasy. The scent isn't my favorite but it doesn't last too long so it's not a huge issue. I experienced no skin irritation but I use retinol products regularly so my skin is used to it. Retinol takes time to work so it's too soon to know whether this serum will make a real difference in my skin but I have no complaints so far.
