Honestly, I didn’t even know that SEPHORA actually has something like this. I knew about their creams, masks but serum really surprised me.

When I tested it out in the store, I didn’t get anything but still decided to purchase this product. So today I’ll tell you about my experience of using it.

  • Where to buy and the price

You can buy it in the Sephora store or also from their e-shop.

The price for an item is $20.

 

  • Packaging

The product was housed in a box with on an eye-catching design. In fact, I loved the design first. It seems stylish for me.

 

By the way, the packaging of the product is made of recyclable material and the lettering is printed with vegetable ink.

Aside from the beautiful appearance, the packaging is also informative. Each of its sides has this or that info on the product, ingredients, active components, results and so on.

The vial with the serum is see-through and glass. It’s designed the same as the box.

And even though I love this packaging very much, I still have to mention a huge drawback about it. Since the product is infused with Vitamin C, it would be much better to house it in a dark glass tube because the component is sensitive to the sunlight. However, I keep my product in a dark place, so no problem for me.

Here we have a glass dropper as a dispenser and it’s super. One will easily take out the desired amount of the product that will be enough for one use.

The top cap sits safely on the glass tube which makes it a perfect travel-friendly buddy.

As for the storage at home, no difficulties here. The tube is neat and not bulky.

 

  • About the product.

 

Size: 30ml

Made in France

The formula suits all skin types, according to SEPHORA.

The consistency is rather runny but still interesting. It feels light yet very nutritive.

 

The liquid is a bit slippery but it feels great on my skin and never turns into a tacky finish.

It spreads smoothly and easily.

The color of the serum is yellow but it’s undetectable on my skin.

This is how nicely the product distributes on my skin.

I love the Ultra Glow Serum aroma. It’s pleasant, floral and not chasing. If you don’t welcome potent smells in your skincare products, this is a great hit.

 

I’ll list the ingredients for you if you want to analyze them.

Water, Propanediol, Pentylene Glycol, 1,2-Hexanediol, PEG-40 Hydrogenated Castor Oil, Carbomer, Glycerin, Ribose, Vaccinium Myrtillus Fruit Extract, Sodium Hydroxide, Glyceryl Caprylate, Caprylyl/Capryl Glucoside, Saccharum Officinarum (Sugar Cane) Extract, Fragrance, Citrus Aurantium Dulcis (Orange) Fruit Extract, Citrus Limon (Lemon) Fruit Extract, Panthenol, Acer Saccharum (Sugar Maple) Extract, Chlorella Vulgaris Extract, Helianthus Annuus (Sunflower) Seed Oil, Ascorbyl Glucoside, Tocopherol, Capsicum Annuum Fruit Extract, Rosmarinus Officinalis (Rosemary) Leaf Extract

The product is mineral oil-free and 97% of the ingredients are from natural origins, according to SEPHORA.

 

  • Results

The serum doesn’t take much time to soak in which I find advantageous because it saves my time. I apply it together with my moisturizer but sometimes also use it as a standalone product.

In fact, the visible results can be gained within 28 days as they say. But I saw the first results even after the first week of use. My skin was more hydrated and free of any chapped or flaking skin bits which are a part of me when fall is coming. Also, my complexion has become even and glowing with health.

I use this Ultra Glow Serum almost every day in the morning. In fact, this is what SEPHORA says:

Apply in the morning to the face and neck on clean, dry skin.

 

After the use of this Ultra Glow Serum, my skin feels awesome. During the time that I’ve been using it, I’ve never experienced any breakouts, reddening or any other negative skin reactions. A 100% hit for my skin.

 

And even if I use the product alone and don’t pair it with a moisturizer, it still works well and that’s important, never leaves any sticky or tugging skin finish behind. That’s great because many serums don’t do the same.

 

The only disappointing thing is the quick suspending. But given the affordable price, I can’t be really disappointed. For the job it does and the price it costs, I want to grab two tubes at ones!

 

  • The bottom line

If you’re on a lookout for a really hydrating product that will glow your skin with health from within, this is exactly what you need. The spontaneous purchase turned into my Holy Grail.

I’ll definitely repurchase because Ultra Glow Serum is super quality-wise. Moreover, its skincare properties are pleasant all around.
