A moisture serum that delivers 💧
As a #LYKOINFLUTESTER, I got to test skincare from the skinfluencer brand SAWÉ Skin Science, including their Hyaluronic Catalyst Power Serum with pretty low expectations. Partly because I have previously reacted strongly to algae, which is found in the ingredient list, and partly because I generally think that moisture serums are often an unnecessary product in the skincare routine. But that said: if you are to judge a moisture serum for what it is and is supposed to do, this one does its job. It effectively hydrates and helps to lock in moisture in the skin, without feeling heavy, sticky, or clogging (algae notwithstanding). It works well in layers with other products and gives a soft, pleasant feeling on the skin. It is not a product I see as necessary in my routine, but it is a well-formulated serum that delivers what it promises, and for those looking for a hydrating step, it is a really good option.

Excessive
I have now been testing the Hyaluronic Catalyst Power Serum from #SAWE for a month and I'm not really sure if it has "done anything" for my skin. My skin is combination and has recently had issues with pimples on my chin. I don't feel that it gives "radiant skin" as described. It absorbs quickly and feels nice on the skin, it does, but if I want more glow, this is unfortunately not the right product for that. For the expensive price, I am a bit disappointed with this serum, I would have liked to see more visible results that hyaluronic acid is supposed to provide, meaning tightening the skin and leaving it supple. Niacinamide is supposed to strengthen the skin's elasticity and make pores less visible, unfortunately, I haven't noticed that either after a month of use. I give this serum 2/5 as it felt a bit "excessive" in my routine. However, I have used it in combination with the Dem-Alert Barrier Repair Cream at night, which really hydrates the skin and the skin feels hydrated in the morning. #lykoinflutesterTranslated from swedish

Good serum for combo/normal skin type
I have been so lucky to test products from the new brand SAWE for a month. Exciting new brand developed by an aesthetic nurse in collaboration with top laboratories. The brand focuses on effective and innovative skincare. A bit about my skin: -combination skin type with dry areas -large pores in the T-zone -focus on slowing down signs of aging, and a desire for healthy and glowing skin. The products come in an ice blue glass bottle with a dropper, with black print/text. Practical and hygienic with a dropper, and you easily get out the amount you need for your face and neck. The product contains hyaluronic acid in different molecular forms and niacinamide, which are good ingredients for healthy and radiant skin. I think I might need a lot of product per application to cover the desired area, which might be a downside for some regarding the price. (I recommend buying now while there is a 20% promotion!) The product feels nice on the skin, and I think it hydrates well for my combination skin. I get a very nice glow in my face from the serum, some might think it’s too much glow, but it depends on what you like. I believe most people with normal/combination skin will like the consistency and feeling that the product gives. #LYKOINFLUTESTER #SAWETranslated from norwegian

Pretty okay
I've been able to try this serum for about a month now, and I have to say that I'm fairly satisfied. I have combination skin that is more oily than dry. Therefore, I like to use niacinamide in my skincare routine to reduce blemishes and large pores. I also think it felt very smooth with a product containing hyaluronic acid, because whose skin doesn't benefit from moisture? Great with multiproducts, I think🌟 The formula is a bit hard to define. It's not very runny, but the drop stays on the skin. However, it still felt very fluid once I started working it into the skin. The product is absorbed by the skin very quickly, unless you apply it on damp skin or with a lot of product. However, the skin doesn't feel really saturated with moisture. After one layer, the skin feels somewhat dry. This happens even if you use a lot of product, once it has sunk in well. My experience is that the only way to avoid this is to apply it on damp/very moist skin. Alternatively, you can complement it with an additional moisture serum before the day cream. So that it quenches the skin's thirst and is a hero for layered moisture, yes, that's not something I feel super clearly. I really like the packaging. The bottle is pretty and looks luxurious, and it's so convenient with a dropper for application. However, it is always a bit tricky to have a glass container in the bathroom. The visible result then? Yes, unfortunately, I can't claim that I notice any major difference. Now that spring has come and I've gotten a bit of color, the skin tone becomes a bit more even with the tan. However, it does feel a bit healthier/stronger actually, even though that's something I find hard to "measure". Maybe a bit fewer breakouts and oiliness. #LYKOINFLUTESTER #SAWETranslated from swedish

Too expensive for a basic product
I have tested this hyaluronic acid serum for about a month. As a reference, I have dry skin. I can start by saying that the design of this is very beautiful. It is a solid glass bottle with a dropper that is aesthetically pleasing. The serum is easy to dispense and is quite viscous, resembling many other hyaluronic acid serums in its texture. It is a bit sticky upon application and thus resembles other serums with the same ingredient list. It hydrates okay but not wow. Price-wise, it is expensive, and I feel it is too pricey for the composition it has. This is not the best hyaluronic acid serum I have tested, but definitely one of the most expensive. I don't think the design justifies the price considering the formulation is not particularly elegant. I would not buy it again. #Lykoinflutester #saweTranslated from swedish

Good but not wow🫣
I have now tested this serum for about 3 weeks as a #lykoinflutester, and here is my review. First a bit about me: 39 years old, have normal to dry skin type, no special skin issues other than that I have struggled with some dry spots on my face, and fine lines around my eyes. I get some bumps and red spots in between (I think it's due to face shaving, lol). I love the design of this brand. Clean and nice design. Feels luxurious with a glass bottle with a dropper.👏🏼 The serum itself has a very watery consistency, thin and fluid. I like that it absorbs quickly into the skin. But I feel that for me it didn't do much, I need more moisture than the serum unfortunately provided.🥹 But I will continue to use it along with some other creams and see if it might work better for me than with the SAWE cream that I have used it with so far. The price is steep, I think, as there are many comparable serums at much lower costs. But if you're looking for a short skincare routine and can afford it; then it's worth trying out. Not everything works for everyone. Very good that it is fragrance-free as that is completely unnecessary in skincare. I give it 3 stars as it didn't give me as much as I hoped, but it is still a good product.⭐️⭐️⭐️ #saweTranslated from norwegian

Good ingredients but quite expensive!
I was so lucky to receive the Hyaluronic Catalyst Power Serum from SAWE to test as a #LYKOINFLUTESTER. Also the “Radiant Revive Eye Cream” and “Derm-Alert Barrier Repair Cream” from the same brand, which I have used together with this serum during the testing period 🩵 I am 34 years old, have normal to dry skin. A bit sensitive at times if products contain a lot of fragrance. I have some lines around my eyes, but I don’t have particularly big bags or dark circles under my eyes. And I get a few pimples/bumps now and then. A moisturizing serum is a staple in my daily morning and evening routine. Therefore, I was very excited about this serum packed full of different hyaluronic acids in different molecular forms + niacinamide. The bottle is absolutely gorgeous in frosted glass with a dropper. Looks very sleek and chic in the bathroom, especially together with the other products in the same series 🤩 The consistency of the serum is lovely and thin. Easy to get evenly distributed over the face and neck. Doesn’t feel sticky or tacky on the skin after application, and absorbs quickly (important to apply on damp skin). But it doesn’t give a moisturized “glow” like many of my regular moisturizing serums do after application. But the skin feels hydrated. No noticeable scent on the product either. I have used the serum - along with the other products in the series, over a longer period - both morning and evening. And even though I am a bit dry in the skin at the moment, I don’t notice a big difference in my skin after this period. But I should mention that I have tested the serum twice with another moisturizer, which I think gave better results than with the “Derm-Alert Barrier Repair Cream” from SAWE. I feel like my skin feels MUCH more hydrated then. So it could be that I just tested the serum with the wrong products on top. I believe this serum will also work well with other active serums. So I will be testing the serum more with other products going forward, as I really have high hopes for it considering the price. And it absolutely hasn’t made my skin drier or given me any breakouts. The main downside is that my favorite moisturizing serum costs less than half the price of this one.. Big plus that it doesn’t contain fragrance and is suitable for sensitive skin!

Do the job
I have used this serum for just under a month, and I think it has been just okay. I have used hyaluronic acid before, and know what to expect (just provides deeper moisture), but I don’t think this serum lived up to the price. It gave my skin the same effect as much cheaper hyaluronic serums I have used before. In the last month, I have also had many more impurities and irritations in my skin - probably unrelated to this product -, but I therefore don’t think I can say that it has improved my skin barrier much. I really like products that contain zinc, and have felt almost immediate effects on my skin barrier when I have used them in my skincare routine, unlike this serum. The serum has a very watery consistency, which absorbs incredibly quickly into my dry/combination skin. I’m not sure if it’s just the wrong serum for me, or if the product itself doesn’t quite deliver what it promises, but I think I will stick to the more affordable hyaluronic acids going forward. #lykoinflutester #saweTranslated from norwegian

Serum
I was lucky to try the serum in the #sawe series 🥰 My skin is; ⭐️mature, meaning lines and wrinkles😅 ⭐️dry I love everything with hyaluronic acid, and this gave me the moisture I need. My skin improved in every way. Delicate bottle. #LYKOINFLUTESTER #SAWETranslated from norwegian

Okay!
This serum has a nice consistency for spreading, but I think it leaves a sticky feeling on the skin. I feel like it sits more on the surface than actually sinking in. If you put a cream over it, I think this feeling becomes less noticeable anyway. The scent is nothing special, just very mild. I can't say that I think they intensely hydrate my skin, and I might have expected more hydration considering its marketing. It could be that my skin is too dry and requires more, but I don't think the serum is a disaster, though I might not think it lives up to what it promises. 🤷♀️ #LYKOINFLUTESTER #SAWETranslated from swedish
3 likes266 views- Customer service at Lyko6 daysHey Viktoria! 🤗 Thank you for sharing your experience! 🤍 If your skin feels extra dry, it can sometimes help to apply the serum on slightly damp skin and follow up with a richer cream to lock in moisture. All skin types are different, and I hope you find a combo that works great for you! ✨ Have a really nice day! 🌷🌞1 likes

Disappointed (unfortunately)
I have now been testing 3 products from SAWE for a few weeks, and only the packaging gave me the impression that I would like it. It really radiates moisture? Both their SAWE Skin Science Derm-Alert Barrier Repair Cream & SAWE Skin Science Radiant Revive Eye Cream did not receive any high ratings from me. And like, UNFORTUNATELY (😥) This one also does not get a good rating. I don’t know what ingredient makes all 3 products feel like a film on the skin. It feels heavy, matte, and like it never sinks into the skin, more like I’ve put on a really really really thin sheet mask. The price tag is also high, and I question it even more when it can’t even sink into the skin.. Maybe it’s just my dry skin that can’t handle it 🤷🏻♀️ I don’t know, but there’s something that makes the skin not accept the product. This one, as you can see in the picture, gives a nice result when you take a picture like this, but the feeling on the skin is not the same. I really think it’s such a shame because I really thought this would be products for me. I really like the design I really like the pipette I appreciate that there’s no strong scent. But that’s it, unfortunately.. SO sad.. This skincare line is probably just not for me. I hope that next time I can recommend a new favorite, but this unfortunately wasn’t it.. (It looks like the pictures are edited, which they are not. The camera picked up different brightness levels in the before and after pictures) Reference: SKIN TYPE: Dry and sensitive AGE: 29 #LYKOINFLUTESTER #SAWETranslated from swedish
