    Works. I noticed my skin looked healthier and more supple after using this product for a couple of weeks. The pump gets all the product out when you use it up. I dislike how much plastic there is but my face is too sensitive for other products. I have rosacea prone skin and this did not hurt my face.

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] As someone with relatively oily skin, I’m always trying to make sure my skincare routine is holistic without globbing on so much onto my face. This serum truly is light weight and layers well underneath my gel face moisturizer. My face already looks refreshed after this first week of using it.

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Cetaphil Healthy Renew Face Serum leaves my skin smooth, hydrated, and radiant—lightweight and perfect for sensitive skin! Very sticky, no scent and I really didn’t like the beads inside the serum. I did like the pump for the serum instead of the alternative liquid dropper.

    I’ve used Cetaphil products for about 30 years. It is so nice to see them offering products like this beyond just the basic cleanser and lotion. I use this serum in the mornings with the corresponding eye serum. They leave my skin feeling moisturized all day! I also like the way they feel under makeup—not too oily, not pilling, just refreshed and smooth. I have very sensitive skin, but this doesn’t irritate my skin at all (there’s no scent to it!). It’s a very effective alternative to other much more expensive options.

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Lightweight to the point where it literally feels like nothing on my skin. It’s easy to apply and absorbs quick. It did not bother my sensitive skin in the least. The bottle is super cute and easy to use. I love the instant glow it gives my skin! If I’m using Healthy Renew Face Serum, I don’t need to use foundation or bronzer - it’s that good!

    I typically love Cetaphil products but this one is an utter disappointment. It made not only my skin break out in a rash, blister and ooze, but also my sisters’. The only product we used after it was the cetaphil healthy renew night cream (after the serum had absorbed). We have no problem with the cream. Nothing in the serum ingredients list mentions anything we are allergic to. Sensitive folks beware!

    I wanted to love this serum... This serum has a wonderful weightlessness on the face and feels great during application. It also feels very hydrating. Unfortunately, it breaks my skin out and causes multiple whiteheads within eight hours of application. I discontinue use and my skin quickly clears and have no issues until I (foolishly) try this product again. Which is such a shame because I love the feeling of it. :(

It is amazing for daytime nighttime. It is great for the summer if you live in a colder climate as far as winter goes, it’s not really going to do anything for super dry skin, but it does give you a very nice glow, and I did feel like it did diminish my dark spots
