Details & care
What it is: This breakthrough bi-phase serum is formulated with vitamin C and AHA for three glow-boosting actions.
What it does: Instantly brighten, even tone and smooth texture. Shake to activate two incompatible actives separated to protect potency; an oil-soluble stabilized vitamin C and water-soluble glycolic acid (AHA). This hydrating, lightweight micro-pearl texture exfoliates, visibly evens tone and refines skin texture for a clinically proven boosted glow.
Research results:
In a clinical study with 32 women, immediately after first application:
+ 30% smoother skin
+ 27% brighter skin
+21% more even skin tone
After 28 days of use:
+ 45% brighter skin
- 17% refined pores
How to use: Shake the bottle before each use to ensure ingredients are evenly dispersed. Once shaken, the two phases combine into one serum that retains its unique opalescent texture. A quick shake before each use ensures potent ingredients stay evenly dispersed. Apply serum to skin.

Glowy
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love how girly and pink the bottle is!! It looks adorable. And this is before I added it to my routine and I have such a healthy glow after adding this to my routine. Consistency is perfect and doesn’t leave any residues behind.

Eye rash
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Well, this is a word to the wise to not get it close to your eyes!! I also hate that you have to shake it up every time you use it. I’m pretty lazy in my skin routine meaning I don’t like to have a ton of steps or a ton of complicated steps at that. So I don’t think this product is for me and if you have dry skin or if you’re using in the winter time, probably not the best time to use. It caused my eyes to break out in a dry rash. I’m so bummed.

Good serum
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This serum did improve my skin texture. I have rosacea on my face, and while it didn’t make it worse, it definitely didn’t help with my redness/discoloration.

Pretty!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] It has a rose-y, floral scent that isn’t too strong. It feels a little sticky when it first goes on, but absorbs and leaves me skin soft and not oily. I have dry, sensitive skin and this brought out a natural glow. The dropper with an angled tip was easy to use. I haven’t see much of a difference in my skin after two weeks but it feels good, smells good, and looks good short term so I will finish the bottle. The packaging is beautiful too

Makes your skin so glowy
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I am literally obsessed with the multi active glow serum! I have been searching for good skin care for my Middle Aged skin and this is definitely it the packaging is so pretty for one that definitely caught my eye! I love the application of the product it’s a little dopper so you can get as much out as needed and it’s so easy to apply. The smell is beautiful it’s not strong at all it’s very light smell. It’s a great consistency and spreads evenly on my skin and makes it feel and look amazing and it dries very fast and absorbs perfectly in the skin. I use every night before bed and it has made such a difference on my skin I just look more awake and my face just looks so smooth and healthy it definitely does what the product says glow serum because I am for sure glowing! I have very acne proned skin so I was alittle nervous but I have not had any problems at all with break outs! I just love what it is doing to my skin and I will continue to use daily and I feel like it will last awhile because alittle goes along way but I will definitely for sure keep purchasing so I can keep my skin glowing thank you so much for giving me the opportunity to get to try because I’m obsessed!

Irritated My Skin
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was initially quite excited to test out this serum. Since I saw that it had Vitamin C and AHA, I only used this serum 1-2x a week in hopes that it would not irritate my skin. I only used a few drops each time as well. When I was first using it, everything seemed to be ok. However, after using the product for a couple of weeks, my skin got irritated. I stopped using the product afterwards to rest my skin barrier. I sadly have not used this product again because I'm nervous that my skin will get irritated again. My skin is normally not that sensitive, so I am guessing that this serum is quite strong. I am willing to test this serum out again but maybe only use it 1x/week with fewer drops.
