The Body Shop Drops of Youth, Made with Edelweiss Youth Concentrate, For Fresher Looking Skin, 1 Fl Oz

I've purchased this five times over the past six years. It is the only serum that heals my skin after a severe acne breakout (from scarring, etc).1. Clean your face with a non-foaming soap/cleanser. (Prefer Cetaphil Sensitive Skin Cleanser)2. Toner. (Prefer TN Dickinson's Witch Hazel)3. Apply 1-2 drops of this serum.4. Wait 1 minute for it to soak it.5. Apply Moisturizer or PLAIN ALOE VERA. (Prefer Cetaphil's Moisturizing Cream)VOILA. That's it, folks. No more "sticky" feeling on your skin... because it goes under your moisturizer.Body Shop -- please never, ever, ever, change this product. It is perfect.

My skin (dry) loves this. If I use too much, it’s kinda sticky, but soaks in after a little bit. The dropper kinda sucks, as it barely fills, so I end up wiping the outside of the dropper onto my fingertips. I just wonder how long until doing that ruins the product.It seems to be a different formula than the original that I used to get at the mall. It doesn’t seem to tighten my skin as much as the original, but it’s still effective. I’ve found that it works REALLY WELL on my upper eyelids, as they’re getting poofy and droopy as I age, and this stuff tightens them right up. So that’s a big win for me. Would recommend, all in all.

This is a pure and natural-based serum which your skin will absorb in a flash: that's how bio-matched this is to all types of skin. All skin types and hues, all ages: everyone I know who uses this is a diverse population and all are very happy with this product. I add a Vit C powder booster to it occasionally, and it mixes well. With/without Vit C it leaves skin glowing, really. It is pricey and am so glad to fine affordable product via Amazon. (Was walking past Body Shop on Broadway NYC to check this at its "50% off holiday sale": it was 'on sale' for $60! Must be the high rent: most Body Shop's sell it for $40. Look for it online for best deal). Just try it at a good price: you will add this to your skincare toolkit.

I LOVE this serum. Literally takes years off. It reduces fine lines and wrinkles and skin is firmer. I put a couple of drops on my face before makeup, especially on under eye wrinkles,spread it out quickly and tap lightly on skin until it dries(very quickly) It really works. I checked Amazon for price, when I ran out. I purchased originally from The Body shop, but this serum is never on sale anymore from them .(I think because it is so popular and it works!) I ran out and I could tell a difference without it.It took about a week of using it again to see the lovely results again. I don't want to run out of this product.The price on Amazon is nearly half of the cost than from The Body shop .It is the same stuff! Same results! The only thing I can complain about is the dropper is a little difficult to use. But that is from the manufacture.Also, it is a glass bottle. I knocked my first bottle over and it broke, when it was almost gone,thankfully . So, put it in a chosen spot to keep from knocking or tipping over. Highly recommend!

I'm just finishing up my first bottle so I can't say too much about the long term effects. But I do love the effects immediately after use! I use this and then follow it up with the moisturizer and the combination does leave my skin feeling hydrated and bouncy and looking fresh all morning. I really like the unique texture of both the serum and moisturizer and it has a really nice cooling feeling that makes it an awesome addition to my morning routine. I haven't seen any noticeable differences to my skin at the end of the day yet (I've only used one bottle so far and I'm hoping with continued use I will), but at the point I'm just so happy with the cooling effect and texture that I don't even mind.I took away one star because the price is a little insane. At $38 for the smaller bottle, it definitely hurts a bit to hit the 'Add to Cart' button. But this is the first new product I've tried in recent years that I really love, so I'll suck it up and definitely be purchasing again.

So awesome for eyelids!

When my skin first met Drops of Youth they rushed to embrace each other and quickly became one! It's not greasy, oily, sticky nor does it leave a coating on my skin that can be rubbed off. It's like my skin recognizes Drops of Youth like it's long lost youth! The crepiness around my eyes is nearly gone, my skin feels soft, supple and looks younger and healthier. I love, love, love it!

This serum is alright but just not enough moisturizing that I need in Fairbanks, AK winter (i use it with the moisturizer of the same line). The moisturizing effect (of both) doesn’t last long, i feel i have to constantly reapply. This would probably work better in these parts during the warmer months.
