I am a massive fan of Bobbi Brown and have yet to find a product in their range that I don’t like and this now includes this smoothing serum and glow essence which is now on my list of ‘I Can’t Be Without Products’. But of course I’m not alone as this serum is the first step of Bobbi Brown’s Artist-approved Vitamin Enriched regimen because it has been infused with skin-caring ingredients. This 2-in-1 smoothing serum and glow essence smooths your skin, improves the look of blemish marks, moisturises and also boosts your skin’s natural-looking glow.
This is a fast-absorbing milky serum-essence that helps smooth, and nourish your skin and evens the appearance of your skin’s tone giving it a fresh, natural-looking glow. I think of it like a primer with benefits as it allows my skin to be ready and prepared for my make-up. I found this serum to be light, silky, plumping and brightening on my skin and help with a few dark areas that I had. Digressing slightly, but another huge favourite of mine from Bobbi is her Vitamin Enriched Face Base so I tried mixing them both together and I certainly was impressed. My skin looked plumper, had some glow to it and my makeup was much easier to apply. But I also found that this product pair worked beautifully on a no makeup day too! Plus, the bright signature citrus scent of Grapefruit and Geranium Oils gave me an uplift and helped me feel refreshed with it’s a beautiful fragrance.
However I am not alone loving this smoothing serum as there was a consumer test on 166 women. Follows are the results:

– Niacinamide (Vitamin B3) helps provide long-term hydration
– Vitamin C: helps fight dullness and delivers skin-tone-brightening benefits over time
– Acetyl Glucosamine helps smooths and evens skin’s texture through gentle exfoliation over time
– Hyaluronic Acid helps provide a burst of lightweight moisture to the skin, helping to plump fine dry lines
– Shea Butter helps to cushion and condition the skin
– Passion Fruit Oil, with omega-rich fatty acids, helps nourish, replenish, soften
– Lactobacillus Ferment and Caffeine help reduce the look of redness over time
To use just apply to your clean, dry face but avoid your eye area. Use twice daily, morning and night and like me try pairing with Bobbi’s Vitamin Enriched Face Base and Vitamin Enriched Eye Base. I found this combo really did plump my skin and allow my makeup to be applied effortlessly. Gosh my skin did look brighter, more glowy and felt smooth to the touch.
This is most certainly one to try and would make a super gift idea if you have birthdays if the offing.
