Eight Saints Hyaluronic Hydrating Brightening Reviews Summary

Hydration

Pros:

• "I love the effects of using vitamin C serums but most dry my skin out and I need to add more moisturizer throughout the day. But this serum is so hydrating."
• "I've been using this consistently for a month and have noticed my dark spots lightening, my skin is more hydrated, and feels smoother."
• "It absorbs so well into your skin, it leaves no oily residue or unwanted shine."
• "I find that it provides a nice amount of moisture without feeling heavy or sticky."
• "Love that it feels hydrating - especially in the dry Utah winter!"
• "This serum is not oily or greasy, it feels like a hydrating gel and absorbs into the skin evenly and thoroughly."
• "It's the first Vitamin C I've used that contains an oil and leaves my face soft and hydrated."

Cons:

• "But about 5 minutes after I use it and go to add my tinted moisturizer, it rubs off into visible sticky flakes."
• "It can feel a bit sticky right afterwards but I typically put on oil or moisturizer right after and that fixes the issue."
• "Minus 1 star because I have sensitive skin and it made a small area of my forehead a little dry/flaky."
• "Also, for me, I must use a good moisturizer along with this serum to prevent dryness."
• "Initially, I had minor burning on my face immediately after application, but that eventually resolved after about a week of consistent use."
• "It does tingle a bit in those corners where my nose meets my face."
• "Minus 1 star because I have sensitive skin and it made a small area of my forehead a little dry/flaky."

Scent

• "It smells like lemon and oranges."

• "I'm usually not a fan of any cosmetic that isn't fragrance free, but OMG the scent is incredible."
