Love it

I bought this product in the hope that it would help reduce the redness around my nose and chin area. And it did! It took a little while to see results and before I knew it I had run out. I did use quite a lot at a time though, so would have lasted longer if I had of gone a bit easier on it. My skin definitely became less red and my skin tone evened out. I was even getting to the point where I felt like I may not even need to wear as much makeup. So I was disappointed when I ran out as it is rather pricey and haven't really been able to afford it since. If I had of been able to continue using it, I'm sure my skin would look bright, even and amazing even makeup free.

Tips: You probably don't need to use as much as you think you do. It is water based so it doesn't feel like a lot goes along way but it does :)

OMG - Best Product Ever!

If I was stuck on a desert island and could only bring 3 things, I think this would be one of them!! I use this daily, sometimes twice a day, and I have honestly noticed such a huge difference! The product is easy to apply, goes on nicely, hydrates my skin really well, and smells great! Within a week I noticed a huge difference in my skin tone, and after using this now for a couple of months, I am confident wearing NO makeup as my skin is just alot brighter and the tone is way more even. I can't get enough of this product. If there was one downside, it would be that it is quite expensive, but I can justify buying it as it is certified organic and works so well!

Tips: If you suffer from uneven skin tone - you must try this, you won't regret it!

I was an Apostle of this Antipodes Serum until...

I love natural products and had been looking for a brightening treatment for my skin. It was quite pricey but I made sure to stock up when it was on sale. I liked scent and the ingredients but that's where it ends. I used this product twice a day or sometimes three times a day if I washed my face before would put on makeup and head out and after at least six months I noticed no change to my skin. I had some redness and this did nothing! I had the lightest tan freckles and this did nothing! I still had to use my clay mask to get refreshed skin. It does have a slight tightened feeling after it dries but that didn't help eliminate my fine lines and wrinkles. So about a month ago I ran out of my last bottle and stopped using it and my skin didn't suffer unlike my wallet when I bought it. If you're looking for a miracle for your skin try praying for one instead of buying this, at least God doesn't charge 65 bucks like Antipodes!

I think "natural" brands are generally really good at nourishing moisturisers and oils/serums. But in terms of getting rid of pigmentation, more "active ingredients are better, eg AHAs, retinols etc. I love Antipodes but this was a miss for me.

Just MAGICAL!!!!

From the moment this product arrived I was so excited, Im a nutritionist so I love the fact that I was getting to trial this product.The packaging is amazing, and once you open the product and smell the outstanding aroma, is what I can imagine it smells like where 'angels' live. I applied the product liberally as recommended morning and night and instantly felt the product settling into my skin. I applied the product to my neck also. Within two days people were commenting on how good my skin looked! I was glowing apparently! I told everyone about the product so already have a following. I live at the beach so spend a bit of time in the sun daily (when its out) after being in the sun i noticed that I was not as red on my face, possibly from the help of the Vinanza balancing out the melanin in my skin. I would not like to live without this product, I am on day 8 today and have probably used just over 1/3 of the product so it definitely goes a long way. LOVE, love, love!!!!!

Tips: I also applied a little on my arm as I had surgery late last year which left a big scar line, the product has helped with my arm discoloration whilst sitting out in the sun at the beach!!! BONUS !!!

Antipodes Apostle Skin Brightening & Tone Correcti

This product is amazing, my skin looks and feels so soft, it's glowing without being oily, appears slightly firmer from what I can tell after using it for a week. The eye dropper is fantastic idea and makes the serum easy to use and apply, and you only need a small amount to give good coverage. Not to mention it smells devine! Would definitely use again.

In two minds.

It smells amazing!!! its Kiwi made, its actually really nice. I have noticed a slight difference in my skin tone and disscolouration, BUT not in the 5 days it states on the box. More like 2 weeks of using it twice a day. It soaks into my skin so quick and is really easy to apply. however i did find that it dries my face up quite a bit so use Ananda toner to add the moisture back. I really do like Aposlte as a extra boost for my skin, but i will come back if I start seeing more results of brightning and toning.

Thanks for sharing your experience with this one! I didn't notice a difference in my skin when I used it, which was such a shame! The smell was so beautiful though! Haven't tried out their toner yet, but I'm so keen to!

You're lucky it worked for you I used this for over 6 months twice daily and went through over 4 bottles and didn't see results. I do like this brand but this product didn't do anything for me.

An Expensive Disappointment

I purchased the Antipodes Apostle Skin Brightening & Tone Correcting Serum on recommendation from a friend. I was so excited to try out this product after reading all the hype, and especially because my fair skin suffers from red patches quite frequently.

Sadly, however, this serum did nothing! In fact, each time after using it I felt my skin lost a lot of it's natural glow, becoming much duller and LESS bright and dewy! I'm not sure if it was just the way my skin decided to react, but this product certainly did not live up to my hopes and expectations.

The product itself is gorgeous, however, coming in a lovely little glass bottle with a dropper. It smells fantastic, too, and I love the principals behind Antipodes with their focus on natural, organic ingredients as well as scientific backing. A little of this serum goes a long way, so one bottle of this product would last you quite a while, too.

I have now switched to their Divine Face Oil and am hoping that I see better results from this! Fingers crossed.

The Divine Oil didn't do anything either! So bit of a bummer all round :(

Ohhh - I didn't notice a difference with my skin tone either, so as horrible as it sounds, I'm glad to see that someone else didn't have the desired results from it. Hopefully the Divine Face Oil helped?

I went through over five bottles before I quit using this serum. I liked the scent and the ingredients but like you for me it was an expensive disappointment.

Delicious Skin Brightening Serum

This serum smells amazing!! I was very pleasantly surprised when I cracked open the bottle and the gorgeous fruity smell was released! It is packaged in a glass bottle with a dropper inside so it is very easy to get the product out and control the amount you are using, something I think is important especially when it's a more expensive product. I apply 3-4 drops after cleansing and before moisturising each night, it absorbs into the skin very quickly and doesn't leave any residue behind. My skin definitely has more of a glow since I have been using this serum regularly and I can see a different in the tone and brightness of my complexion. I love that it is a natural product, something I am always drawn to when choosing a new skincare product and it's made in New Zealand! It is on the expensive side however for me it has been worth it.

Antipodes Apostle Skin Brightening & Tone ...

I was excited to try this serum, I really enjoy the results I have had in the past. I decided to try Antipodes as it is a New Zealand made brand and is ethical. The serum comes in a 30 ml glass bottle with an eye dropper for ease of application. It has a nice label, pale in colour with black writing stating the all important information that you need to know.

I followed the suggestion to apply liberally to face, neck and decollatage morning and evening. I followed this routine morning and evening but unfortunately by the time I had finished the bottle I had not noticed any difference in my skin tone, no brightening or no less of a dull look .

The serum itself is one of Antipodes water based serums. This is the first time I have ever used a water based serum and I did enjoy using it. It absorbed really well and left absolutely no residue. It is an unusual colour, it has an ingredient from pinot noir grapes so it is sort of a murky pale reddish colour, hard to describe. Despite the colour it smells pleasent.

There is a lot to like about this serum, but for me it just didnt live up to its said purpose.

I have missed you Maree, hope you are all good. The range is pretty pricey, a little does go a long way though. :]

I'd love to try it Kim but the price makes me gulp - maybe it's too much if the product isn't fabulous. I love the Antipodes products I've tried so far tho...

Antipodies Apostle skin brightening

Antipodies Apostle skin brightening and tone correcting serum

I used it morning and night as recommend Comes in a lovely bottle with an easy to use drop applicator, a brownish colour, smells divine, a slightly slippery feel when applying it,feels a little sticky on drying and made my skin feel a we bit tight, but my skin greedily slurped it up, a bit of moisturiser on and felt great, I'm very pleased with the results I have gotten so far, my skin does feel a little more rehydrated and softer and my skin tone does look more even, and yes brighter, I'm quite impressed with the results so far needless to say I will be getting the night cream to go with it It states it's one of the best premium waters in the world( oh to bath in it,would be divine)

Tips: Try it, you don't need a lot just a few drops, so it will last for a while, it's natural, it's nice and easy to use,
