What people say about this product:
Reviewed by
Matthew Rating: I wasn't using this product as much as I should have been but then my wife started breathing down my neck about how serums are really important or something? I started using it and it really helps with these red blotches I get after shaving. Not sure what's in it or how it does it, but the difference is all that really matters to me (and to her) so it's a win-win.
Reviewed by
Janice Rating: Out of the 4 step system, step 3 serum seemed to be the one that really worked well with my husbands rosacea; when used in combination with the step 4 moisturizer it was a bit much for his skin. Once he started to alternate between the two his skin seemed to respond by not being so "greasy", and his "laugh" lines really softened.
