Editor's Rating & Review

9.5

Dry skin types who usually reach for a rich, heavy cream will love this lightweight blue serum. It not only instantly hydrates, but also makes skin a perfectly smooth, youthful canvas for sunscreen, primer or foundation. One or two pumps of the hyaluronic acid formula will cover the whole face (use more for the neck), sinking in quickly without any slick, tingling residue. Skin retains a slightly dewy appearance but remains easily layerable with other products (although another moisturizer likely won't be necessary). Drugstore serums by brands like Olay work about as well, but the sheer perfection of this effective formula, along with its signature Chanel scent (a bit like Chanel No. 5 and fresh apples) is worth a splurge.

    Divine scent! But so-so effect..

    angelmarcos (2 reviews)
    The scent of this product is absolutely amazing! (well all of chanel products are anyway) its easy to apply and has a lightweight texture.. I have dry/combi asian skin and to be honest im a little disappointed because it didnt really boost any moisture.. Its too light for my skin even if i use it under with hydramax active cream nutrition.. For 124 aussie dollars.. Not really worth it.. Id still stick with my DIOR skin energiser cos it does plump, moisturise and give your skin an instant glow! And a little pump goes a long way!!! Unlike this chanel one.. I need 3-4 pumps for my face and 3 more for neck.. Hmm so disappointing.. — 3 months, 3 weeks ago

    great, but pricey

    mlenaei (16 reviews)
    This product is great. It is lightweight (I do use a cream moisturizer after it, this is just a boost for that moisturizer) and it smells great. I have dry, sensitive skin that can get dry patches if I don't properly moisturize, but since using this twice daily with the corresponding moisturizer, my skin looks radiant and beautiful! My dry patches are completely gone and I've noticed that my skin looks more evenly toned (used to be red and blotchy). The only draw back (and this gets minus 2 stars) is that it's quite pricey and it doesn't seem to last long. I use one pump for an application (2 pumps per day) and it looks like the bottle may not last the month (that's more than $2 per day!). I will definitely have to think about whether I will buy this again. — 7 months, 3 weeks ago
