Details & care

You Have: Red or blotchy skin Hyperpigmentation (e.g. dark spots, sun spots, age spots) Dry or dull skin Wrinkles or fine lines You Need: Our Wake Up Face Serum, packed with a powerful combination of 15% Vitamin C, Hyaluronic Acid and Vitamin E. This anti-aging serum is the key to healthier looking skin. What It Does: The 3 key ingredients work together to address a range of skin issues, including redness, dark spots, fine lines, wrinkles, and dry skin. By infusing skin with antioxidants and deep hydration, they are widely known to help firm and smooth skin texture, even out skin tone, and fight free radicals from UV exposure and pollution that cause skin damage. For the best results, use our Wake Up Face Serum in the morning and Overnight Renewal Serum at night. With regular use multiple times a week, you can expect to notice a brighter, more even complexion within four to six weeks. Many of our users report seeing results earlier.

  • A powerful anti-aging serum packed with 15% Vitamin C, Hyaluronic Acid, and Vitamin E.

Delivers on its Promise
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Wake Up Face Serum contains the best version of Vitamin C available (Ascorbic Acid) and therefore works as promised. The texture, feel and application is certainly premium. I used to use Paula's Choice but have switched to O&A because the O&A serum is much more effective. It's non-irritating to my sensitive skin and has definitely worked to reduce redness & hydrate. Results are top-tier. I've given bottles to gym friends to use and they like it. I especially like that there's no fragrance. Just premium, effective active-ingredients.

Wake Up serum review
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I've been using other Oar & Alps products for some time now, but I have been using the wake-up face serum for one week. So far, I don't feel a difference. However, my girlfriend has noticed a difference and mentioned what I'm doing differently. I'll take that as a win.

Good stuff
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] So far so good. Not much into aging products as I'm not worried about wrinkles, but so far so good. Using it as a moisturizer.

Facial Perfection
I originally bought this for my husband but I tried it once and now I’m also hooked. It smells so good and there is nothing that moisturizes our skin better! Living in Colorado, the altitude and dry climate have always given us skin problems, but it is no longer an issue with this magic serum! Our skin is so soft, we have less wrinkle lines, and the dark spots I get are lightening. I’ve ditched all my other products and will only use Oars and Alps from now on!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The wake up serum has been great. I live at an high elevation of about 9,000 feet, the elements (very dry, high uv, wind) can be brutal on my face. The serum keeps my face healthy and fresh after spending days in the mountains.

Bought this serum to replace
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Bought this serum to replace another brand, which discontinued it. Seems to be working, has a pleasant gel-like consistency. Only…weirdness is my husband and I joke that it has a bbq sauce smell…a strangely smoky sweetness to it? Will definitely buy and keep buying again though.
