Outstanding!

Used once daily, LA Refining Serum minimized my fine lines and exfoliated unwanted discolorations exquisitely! My skin has never looked better……and I’m 81! My mantra, “it’s never too late”!

For sensitive skin start slow, really liking it!

If you have sensitive skin start slow. I used this product every other night the first week. It never stung, itched or irritated during use. After one week my skin was red, breaking out and did not look great. I reached out to customer service & they recommended I use it less often. I’m at week four. My skin has adjusted and I’m finally seeing glowy skin. My complexion looks more even and skin looks smoother. For now I’m using it every four to five days. Start slowly & don’t give up on it especially if you have sensitive skin. I really like this product!! It’s working, it just takes time to adjust.
