Review: Loreal Youth Code Luminosity Serum

A couple of months ago I was lucky enough to get my hands on the L'Oreal Youth Code Luminosity Serum thanks to L'Oreal and BeautyHeaven. This 30mL serum retails for $AU35.

L'Oreal Youth Code Luminosity Day Serum, with the silver coloured shrink wrap coating on the glass bottle removed.

Features:

• Glass bottle with silver shrink wrap coating and silver coloured plastic pump
• Faint fragrance which it quite pleasant
• The serum has a pretty pearly and luminous appearance
• The pump dispenses the right amount of product to cover your face when it is hydrated but if your skin is a little dry two pumps may be needed
• Made in Germany

Likes:

• Though the advertising claims that this serum is super-hydrating I found that it wasn't too heavy in its formula. This was good for me because I could still use this serum daily, some days I used it by itself when my skin was oily and some days I used it under my usual creme when my skin was a little dry
• Absorbs well into the skin
• After a week I noticed an overall improvement to my skin tone, it did not remove or reduce any of my spots but my skin looked healthier and more even in appearance
• Excellent quality pump that pumps the same amount each time
• Can use under makeup without any issues

Dislikes:

•  The shrink wrap coving over the glass bottle which was promptly removed (it made the product look cheap!)
• A little exy for the supermarket isle, this product is aimed at the 25-35 year olds and teens would also be attracted to this product, therefore the price should reflect that

Overall L'Oreal's Youth Code Luminosity Serum is a very nice product which lives up to its claims of 'corrects dark spots & illuminates'. Though I wouldn't use the word 'correct' since it doesn't get rid of the spots, it hydrates your skin and gives it a glow therefore making the spots less noticeable. This serum comes in a great pump bottle, it absorbs into my skin in seconds and leaves my feels light yet plump and could easily be used under makeup, which therefore means that I found it to be really user friendly and I was happy to continue using it after the trial was completed.
