Details & care
What it is: A natural daily serum that works like a peel to resurface, brighten and refine with AHAs, BHAs and vitamin C to give you a daily dose of glow.
What it does: Born from Tata Harper's best-selling Resurfacing Mask, this serum transforms dullness with a combination of nine alpha hydroxy acids (AHAs) and beta hydroxy acids (BHAs) that slough off dead skin cells to give you a healthy-looking glow. Antioxidants help fight the effects of free radicals that can diminish your glow and make you look older than you are. This lightweight formula restores radiance with a special blend of AHAs, BHAs and antioxidants to give you healthy-looking skin and a glowing complexion. AHAs are exfoliation miracle workers that help get rid of dead skin cells, to retexturize and even skin tone. BHAs are exfoliators that help fight through oil to get rid of buildup, which cleans and clears clogged pores and improves overall skin clarity.
How to use: Massage one to two pumps onto face and neck in the morning and evening.
Pro tips: To maximize your results, apply the serum with your face still damp from your essence. Essences are the best way to soup up your serums. Really saturate your skin with the essence and apply your serum while your skin is still damp. It will help a little bit of serum go a long way.

One of the best serums I've tried...
I tried the Resurfacing mask and honestly wasn't overly impressed with it. The Resurfacing serum on the other hand is a fantastic product. In terms of ingredients it's full of botanicals, fruit-derived AHA's and BHA from Willow bark extract (a mainstay in most TH products). At the same time it loses the essential oils so prevalent in some of her other products, and thus opening it up to more sensitive skin types. However, the fragrance in here is derived from essential oils so there's no escaping them totally, although thankfully they're towards the end of the ingredients list, meaning a very small concentration. The texture of the serum is light and non-greasy, sinking in effortlessly and allowing my moisturizer to go on comfortably over it. I use one pump of this before bed time only, not during the day. Best of all are the results: it fades blemishes, whilst flattening any acne that pops up (rare but happens from time to time), makes my skin glow and makes it feel incredibly smooth. One of the best serums I've tried in a long while. -> My ‘Nordstrom Beauty Top 7 must-have list’ (My 7 favorite beauty products of all time, focusing mainly on my purchases at Nordstrom) <- < 1.

RANCID. Doesn't work!
I wanted to love this brand but unfortunately it doesn't work. I was not aware to READ the ingredients. There are no active ingredients in this, just a ton of greenwashed marketing and rancid oils which caused pimples or allergic reaction! This particular product was intolerable and heavily scented. I'm mad I missed the return window so I'm using it on my feet, after pedis. I bought the Advanced Night Repair Bio Lipids Serum from Beleza by Z. Honestly, excellent results with the real ceramides in suet tallow plus active vitamin C, retinol, and ferulic acid!

TH Resurfacing Serum: Smooth
Lightweight beige liquid gel is gentle, absorbs quickly, light natural scent. Serum version of the mask that does the same thing. I prefer the mask and exfoliating scrubs in the morning so I can use other hydrating high performance serums and face oils day and night. Good timesaver for someone who doesn’t do regular exfoliating.

Resurfacing Serum
As always, Tata Harper does not disappoint! The Resurfacing Serum goes on smoothly and leaves my skin feeling great without being oily or shiny. I can tell a difference in my the evenness of my skin tone and my pores are noticeably smaller with just a week of use. Highly recommend!

Perfect Serum!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Perfect serum! I have been using this for over 3 months now and I love it. It helps to smooth my skin out and creates a wonderful glow. I see visible results when using this serum, that’s why I purchased another bottle, once the original bottle started running low, this is now a constant in my beauty routine.
