Alpine Silk Manuka Honey Ultra Rejuvenating Serum Reviews

The packaging design was a bit fussy for my taste, I prefer more streamlined and simple product design. I'm also not super bowled over by the addition of the gold flakes, as I doubt they add significant therapeutic value, and I prefer plant based products over animal ones. The serum seemed to do a reasonable job, and a little definitely went a long way. It felt soothing as a base underneath my moisturiser. I would probably not but this product, but I suspect I'm not the target audience.

I didn't have much faith that this product would be any good, mainly because of my pre existing prejudice around 'trendy' ingredients like gold flakes and placentas. I have spent money on beauty products with these ingredients, in the past and been underwhelmed.

After this trial I am sold. I replaced my usual array of serums, with this product, for the duration of the trial but continued with the other products in my day/night regime. Firstly, I did not follow the instructions of 'using a few drops on fine lines', I used a moderate amount for full face. I can't recall the fragrance, but I'm very picky when it comes to scents in moisturisers which means it was very subtle or didn't have one.

The serum has a silky texture, went on well and was absorbed quickly. My skin felt very hydrated. After a few days I noticed my skin had an increased glow, looked hydrated and I swear there was an improvement in my fine lines after a week. I always say that I will take a before and after shot when trialing a product but alas I never do, you'll just have to take my word for it.

I would definitely recommend this serum

the first time I tried it, it stung my face and again the second time but further use it stopped doing that. the bottle is attractive, I like that it is see through so you can see the gold flakes in it, which is obviously the selling point of the whole product. the packaging I flet was quite plain, and looked to be trying to sell actual honey instead of a face product. the only instructions on the pack was 'gently massage a small amount of serum into fine lines and smooth in until fully absorbed into skin. and that was it. do you do your whole face? or just follow any lines? so you need to follow it up with an addition moisturizer? do you use it at night or in the day? I feel their could have been more detailed instructions (usually the manufacturers rave over their own products on the box) and don't usually use vaguely described products I'm not familiar with. I liked the dropper and the glass bottle, not worrying about spills or leaking. after using it for the specified days, I saw very little change in my appearance. will I buy this product again? probably not. I feel it is an unnecessary item I can do without. would I recommend it to a friend? not sure on that one.

Nice bright packaging. This product contains all the ingredients you would expect in a rejuvenating serum, collagen, vitamins and gold flakes. You can see the flakes in the serum and they are in each application. Nice squeezy syringe makes it easy to use. This product was not for me and I found it very drying. My skin has now broken out is very sensitive. I will not continue to use this product.

There is something about this product that makes it (and me) feel very luxurious - it could be the study glass bottle or thick glass stick or maybe it is the 23 carat gold flakes...

I have been applying a small amount of this serum to my fine lines both morning and night for about 1.5 weeks now. The serum has a great texture, it doesn’t leave any stickiness on my fingers and has a very light aroma.

This serum feels quite thick when you apply to your face, but it magically absorbs into you skin very easily. In the morning, I apply my usual moisturiser after applying the serum.

Is it too soon, I don’t know, but at this stage I do not see any improvement to my aging skin - but I won’t give up on this serum yet and will continue to apply twice daily.

The serum looks nice when you put it on your skin, and has a nice texture. It gives it a glowing look where you have used it on your face. I found that it started to firm my skin but need more time to see if it works with fine lines.and wrinkes. Will definatly keep using it to see the efforts from it.

I love waterbased face serums as oil based ones are just that: face oils, not serums. So I picked this up excitedly for a great price and I have used up a whole bottle of this and it didn’t break me out, wasn’t drying, definitely didn’t do any damage. But did it do anything good? I’m not sure, it felt nice and moisturising tapping it into my skin at night, but I haven’t noticed any lasting difference to my skin at all. I really liked the ingredients in it and the consistency was nice, dropper and glass packaging was luxurious, but when I ran out of it and just used my usual night cream there was no difference to my skin in the morning at all. I won’t repurchase and I’m glad I haven’t paid full price, sadly this just didn’t do anything for me or effects can’t be seen!?

I had quite a giggle to myself reading comments about the gold flakes such as "I didn’t want to look like I had been crafting with my daughter" and "I was concerned they would look like glitter on my skin" in the reviews below before grabbing this from the Beauty Vault.

My beauty therapist has been on at me to start using a serum on my combination skin and I'd just run out of the Alpine Silk Rosehip Oil which I loved and comes in the same gorgeous glass dropper bottle.

Being water based and oil free the serum was of an unexpected consistency. It dropped out in a single, gold flecked glob which I then smoothed into my skin, paying extra attention to areas where fine lines are appearing. The product has a subtle scent and absorbed nicely, with one rogue gold flake left on my cheekbone I didn't mind remaining there being an evening at home. My skin did feel replenished but I still needed moisturiser afterwards. I will definitely incorporate this into my daily routine.

Thank you for the opportunity to be able to trial ‘Alpine Silk Manuka Honey Serum’. I love the product and would highly recommend it! Its only been a few days, that I’ve been using it and I already see positive results. I predict that after long time use, it’ll give me softer and finer looking skin. Currently my face is not as dry looking and feeling and I have now found a best friend for my moisturizer. Side by side, they ease the appearance of my age nemesis: wrinkles. I like the creamy soft consistency of the product and I appreciate that it has no fragrance at all. I also like how easy it is to use, thanks to the handy squeezy drop application. With that feature, it gives me a good amount of control with the quantity I use. Which helps me follow what’s stated on the bottle: a small amount each use and in return, I think the 30ml serum, will last me months, which I think is great. I love the packaging and the embossed writing on the box and on the bottle. I love how the ‘directions of use’ is simple and straightforward. Last but not least, I love that its New Zealand made. For someone growing old, like me, I highly recommend this product to be part of others’ beauty regimen.

I have been using Alpine Silk Manuka Honey Ultra Rejuvenating Serum for about a week now. On the first try, my skin felt refreshed and smooth, and it absorbed straight away. After using it daily, twice a day, I noticed the fine lines starts to reduce, and my skin feels smoother and fuller. I love this produc, and will definitely use it again in the future!
