Very hydrating

I received a sample from Spacenk and I have to say that this serum has been a lifesaver for my dehydrated skin. Instantly refreshing and keeps dryness away without being sticky. I will definitely recommend it if you are looking for a luxury skin care experience.

Not for sensitive skin

I have very sensitive skin, so new products are always a little bit of a gamble. I thought this one might be ok due to its ‘calming’ nature, but sadly I broke out in tiny pimples across my forehead after just one night’s use. I was also a little disappointed with the texture too - as a serum I was expecting it to be lighter/silkier, but this was surprisingly thick and felt like it needed a lot to feel hydrating. Fragrance is subtle and pleasant. Only had as a free sample, thank goodness!

As its name is telling you

It has no frangrance - which I find the product using less irritating ingredients causing unwanted reactions on my skin. The texture is just right - not too liquidy, not too thick. My skin can absorb the product nicely. Usually I apply the serum before sleep at night, and my skin does look a bit more stable the next morning.

Nice product

I received a sample of this during a purchase. I have knocked a star off as I personally found the smell a bit too strong for me. That being said the serum has a lovely texture, I have oily combination skin and the serum did not feel heavy or greasy on my skin. My skin felt soothed after applying it. As I just had a sample I can’t comment about it reducing redness. It’s worth getting a sample of this before purchasing.

Very calming

I received a sachet and decided to save it for those days where you apply too much prescription tretinoin. It was a big saviour! It definitely calmed my skin and felt quite nurishing. I am not sure of its efficacy claims long-term given it was just a small sachet, but my skin really thanked me for it!

Soothing

I received a small free sample of MZ Skin’s Calming Rescue Serum with a recent Space NK order. Now I’ve seen the price for 30mls, I appreciate why the samle was so small and whilst it’s difficult to give a review on just 1ml of product I can confirm that it felt cool and nourishing, especially as I put the sachet in the fridge before use. A lovely treat for my skin as I have been using lots of actives and this was really soothing.
