    BOTOX IN A BOTTLE?! 💉💌🧴

    As a #LYKOINFLUTESTER, I had the honor of testing this serum from #THEORDINARY. A serum for EVERYONE over 25+. It promises magic for sagging and “dull” (gray/matte) skin - and actually lives up to all my expectations! 🧴 MY SKIN TYPE I have a normal-dry skin type that can easily become clogged with too rich products, for example. I have some enlarged pores on my cheeks and nose. When exposed to too strong fragrances, my skin can react and become red and inflamed. I have some pale scars from acne on one cheek and finally some fine lines (32 years). 🧴 FRAGRANCE/TEXTURE Fragrance: The serum has no particular scent. Texture: Very thin serum that really sinks into the skin, but leaves an incredibly beautiful glow. Despite the thin consistency, the serum hydrates and repairs my skin overnight! 🧴 RESULTS Got my glow back in my skin because of this serum! I wake up every morning with hydrated, calm, and “plump” skin. I think the serum has had an extreme effect on dry lines! I thought I was starting to get deeper lines until I realized I was very dry after winter. A few nights with this, and now my lines are gone! I feel more balanced in my skin overall since I introduced this into my routine. My enlarged pores appear “smaller,” probably because my skin is more hydrated. 🧴 PROS + Gives back the color and glow to my skin. + Love the thin consistency. + Sinks in well due to its thin consistency. + Basically fragrance-free. + Wake up every morning with plump and hydrated skin. + Improved my dry lines. + Experience my pores as less visible. I can't even find anything negative about this product. So far, I have been very positively surprised! The Ordinary succeeds, once again. #LYKOINFLUTESTER #THEORDINARY

    Good serum with growth factors against aging

    My skin: 30 years, very dry, dull, not sensitive I have been using GF 15% Solution from The Ordinary for a month, and I like the concept of growth factor-based skincare. Growth factors like EGF, IGF, and TGF are naturally found in our skin but decrease with age, and this serum is supposed to help "reboot" the skin's repair processes. It promises to improve fine lines, firmness, elasticity, and glow – basically everything I want to prevent in the long run. The consistency is very thin, almost like water – personally, I wish it were a bit thicker, as I am used to the retinol serum from The Ordinary, which is more like an oil and provides moisture that lasts until the next day. After applying this, I am dry again on my skin after seconds. Whether it still improves the skin's overall moisture could be true, I am definitely not as dry in the morning as if I hadn't put anything on. At first, I used the pipette directly on my skin (which one shouldn't really do to avoid irritation and bacteria), but fortunately, I noticed no negative reaction. I apply the serum after primer and the Peptide+HA serum from The Ordinary, and before moisturizer with SPF. The pipette makes it easy to control the amount, which I really like. As for results: I do not experience the moisture and glow that are supposed to come, but my skin is so dry that it needs oils and thick creams to achieve that. I also haven't seen any changes in the small signs of aging I have, but I suspect that this only comes when you are a bit older and possibly see if you have held up well? 😄 I also don't know if growth factors like this will be more, less, or equally effective as retinol and vitamin C, which is what I have used the most. Still, I find it exciting to try a product that builds up the skin in a different way, and I have faith that it can yield results like many others have experienced! #lykoinflutester #theordinary

    A decent serum!

    I have tested The Ordinary GF Solution 15% Serum, and I think the product is decent! I was surprised that the serum was so thin, but it’s easy to spread the product on the face and it absorbs quickly. This, combined with The Ordinary's HA serum, has given my skin a hydrated feel with a nice glow! The product contains "growth factors" ingredients that are supposed to support the skin's repair process and elasticity. I haven't noticed much difference in fine lines yet, but I also haven't used it more than 2 evenings a week, as I have incorporated the product into my skincare routine with, among other things, retinol (which should not be combined with this). Maybe the product needs more time to make a proper assessment of the effect. 😊 #lykoinflutester #theordinary

    Fantastic serum for the evening routine✨

    As a #LYKOINFLUTESTER, I have tested 3 skincare products from #THEORDINARY, and this serum is one of those products. A little brief info about me & my skin| Age: 30 years. Occasionally sensitive and can easily become red from time to time (which usually goes away quickly), combination skin type, so both dry but can also become slightly oily in the T-zone. Right at the start of the test, I had reacted to some product and had some stress breakouts as well. Consistency| extremely runny consistency that flows easily and is absolutely lovely to use on both face and neck😍 I recommend either taking a drop in your hand directly for application on areas of the face & neck or alternatively, as I did, holding and catching the drop from the pipette on the areas, I found that convenient, and the product glides and absorbs perfectly into the skin. Scent| no direct scent, absolutely nothing strong or unpleasant, so I would say it even suits those sensitive to scents👌 Packaging| Glass bottle (dark and shiny glass) with a glass pipette that has plastic as a “cap” and a rubber top that easily pumps the product into the pipette☺️👌 Fantastic serum that makes me feel that my skin feels restored, firm, gives radiance, and my skin feels softer, it has felt so incredibly good to have in my evening routine as I used the other serum that was included in the test in the morning☺️ It has also worked well with the rest of my routine, and I will continue to use it in my routine, so I have gained a new regular😍✨ And together with the other serum, I have found it to be a perfect combo for my skin and really strengthened my skin and given me what I expected and wanted it to give. So for my skin, it was and is 5 out of 5 ⭐️

    Haven't met my expectations

    I've been using serums for many years and have tried quite a few, including many from one of my favorite brands - The Ordinary. However, the GF 15% Solution unfortunately didn’t meet my expectations. Despite its impressive ingredient list and the promise of targeting multiple signs of aging, I didn’t notice any visible improvement in my skin during the time I used it. The texture was also a letdown for me — it's very watery, which made it hard to apply evenly, and it left my skin feeling a bit sticky afterward. For a product that supports hydration and natural barrier, I expected a smoother, more pleasant finish. While it may work for others, especially those new to growth factor serums, it simply didn’t deliver the results I was hoping for. I’ll be sticking with my tried-and-true favorites from The Ordinary, not only for the good price, but also for the quality 👌 🥰 #LYKOINFLUTESTER #THEORDINARY

  • Good container with easy dosing

    As a Lykoinflutester, I have had the opportunity to test products from The Ordinary. For me, this is new products to use, which is always fun. I usually have a slightly combination skin. It is dry in some places and a bit oilier on the forehead and nose. Now during the spring, the skin is of course affected, and the oilier areas can feel a bit extra oily when you are in the sun and get warm. I have tested the GF Solution 15% Serum. I don't use serums that much, so it's a bit hard to compare with other products in the same category. For me, this was a product that I felt was different from previous serums I have tested from the same brand. The biggest difference was that this serum felt much runnier. It is supposed to help with fine lines, but I can't say that I've noticed any difference during the time I've tested the product. Maybe it needs more time for there to be a noticeable difference, or maybe I just don't have enough visible fine lines yet to notice them. Just have to keep testing. Plus is that it quickly absorbs into the skin when you use the product thanks to the consistency. It comes in a good container with easy dosing. Easy to get the desired amount of product directly. A little goes a long way. #LYKOINFLUTESTER #THEORDINARY

    Magic for this price?!

    I have had the pleasure of testing products like #lykoinflutester from #theordinary for a month. I have tested a total of 3 products, including this GF Solution 15% Serum. For reference, I have combination skin – quite normal but needs a lot of moisture and gets a bit oilier in the T-zone. I have a few fine lines around my eyes, but otherwise no major issues. I have now tested the GF 15% Solution from The Ordinary and am really satisfied! The packaging feels luxurious with its glass bottle and handy dropper. The consistency of the serum is very runny, which initially made me a bit skeptical, but it absorbs quickly and leaves the skin hydrated and soft. I have primarily used this serum in the morning (since I was testing another one in the evening at the same time), but going forward I would like to use it both morning and night to better evaluate the results. The product is fragrance-free, which I appreciate a lot, especially for sensitive areas. In summary, I really like this serum and will definitely continue to use it!🌸

    Lovely serum

    Clear, water-like serum that really melts into the skin in a lovely way. Smooth and classic The Ordinary bottle makes it easy to get the product out (which also doesn’t smell like anything). It’s also economical and lasts a long time. Big plus! I have combination skin with an oilier T-zone, and some serums tend to highlight the T-zone in a less pleasant way, but this one really lays perfectly over the whole face. Disappears right into the skin, which feels hydrated. Haven’t noticed that it had any major effect on fine lines, unfortunately (about 4 weeks can be seen as a relatively short time to have such an effect). But I do think it has had an effect on lifting the skin tone, which looks fresher. Super lovely serum that really suits my skin type. Just for the boost in skin tone, I think it’s worth the money, so it will probably end up in the bathroom cabinet again when this one runs out. #lykoinflutester #theordinary

    Lovely serum!

    I have been testing this serum for almost 4 weeks (morning). I have combination skin, am slightly red (but not sensitive) and have some larger pores. Some fine lines around the eyes. This serum promises a lot of loveliness! Among other things, more firmness in the skin, reducing fine lines, and increased radiance! I was extremely excited about this serum🙌🏼 The packaging is classic The Ordinary and I like the glass bottle, it feels luxurious and fresh! 🌼 It is a light serum that sinks in quickly into the skin and it doesn't require much product each time, which is nice! 🌼 I feel that my lines around the eyes have decreased a bit, which I didn't notice until I saw my before and after pictures. (The picture on the left is from 1/4-2025 and the picture on the right is from 26/4-2025). 🌼 Affordable product! 🌼 I feel my skin is more "awake" and fresh! I have only positive things to say about this product, highly recommended!!🙌🏼💕 #LYKOINFLUTESTER #THEORDINARY

    Very good on the way

    A multi-serum that suits "everyone"! After 3 weeks of trial, I absolutely believe in this GF serum, but it deserves more than 3 weeks of trial for a complete result. After these weeks, I can't see improvement in either fine lines, scars, or pigmentation spots, but the belief is still there. I'm still struggling with small pimples that never go away, not even at the time of writing. That the skin has to adapt to a new product is OK in itself, but after 3 weeks things should have improved regarding the outbreaks. The product comes in a small glass bottle of 30ml, which you must protect from sun and other light. (of which the bottle is dark). The serum is very watery, so you have to work quickly here. If you take the product directly in the palm of your hand between your fingers, it will run between. The downside is that you shouldn't place the product directly on the skin, as you may get an allergic reaction. After a little googling, GF stands for "GROWTH FACTORS SERUM", and that this should NOT be used together with C-vitamin serum(!). Comes in a delicately sealed packaging, the glass bottle feels luxurious but is also impractical if it were to end up on the bathroom tiles. The pipette is made of rubber with a drop counter. Smells minimal, which I like. Too much scent can be overwhelming if the skincare routine has 4-5-6 steps. I used this morning and night on freshly cleansed skin, before I finished with day cream/night cream. The product absorbs quickly into the skin, without feeling sticky or oily. I would like to inform you that I have combination skin, with an oily forehead and nose, fine lines around the eyes and mouth, as well as some pigmentation spots from sun damage over the eyes and mouth. A product that is worth testing out if you have more than 3 weeks available :) #LYKOINFLUTESTER #THEORDINARY #lykoreview

    Moisturizing!

    I am really so satisfied with this serum! I have been testing the GF 15% Solution from The Ordinary for a few weeks now. The consistency is super lovely – not too runny, but still very light. It absorbs quickly into the skin without feeling sticky, which I really appreciate, especially in the morning when you're in a hurry. After that, I apply my day/night cream. Already after a few uses, I noticed that my skin felt more moisturized. I don't feel like my skin has changed drastically since I haven't had time to use it for a longer period. In short: I love the feeling on my skin, that it is easily absorbent and doesn't smell too much. A big plus is the price! 👏🏻🥰 #lykoreview #theordinary #lykoinflutester

Description
Ingredients

GF 15% Solution helps minimize and repair visible skin damage to regenerate the appearance of aging skin across the face and neck. This growth factor serum incorporates three technologies to target:

Fine lines and wrinkles: GF 15% Solution helps to regenerate the look of skin by reducing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, including crow’s feet, forehead lines, and smile lines.
Loss of skin firmness: GF 15% Solution firms the face and neck, and the jawline looks more lifted and defined.
Loss of elasticity: GF 15% Solution helps to promote skin elasticity to reduce the look of lax skin.
Rough Texture: GF 15% Solution helps to retexturize rough skin to make skin look smoother and more even.
Dull Skin Tone: GF 15% Solution promotes radiance, leaving skin looking more luminous

Additionally, GF 15% Solution also supports skin hydration and strengthens the skin barrier after one application for a more healthy-looking appearance.

Skin naturally contains different types of growth factors, including EGF, IGF, and TGF. Growth factors for skin work to signal it’s natural repair mechanisms. Over time and with age, skin’s natural levels of growth factors declines, contributing to the appearance of visible signs of aging. GF 15% Solution contains a 15% solution of plant-based biomimetic EGF, TGF, and IGF peptides. These offer a triple-action approach for short, mid and long-term skin renewal benefits.

A complex of IGF helps to regenerate the appearance of skin by helping support skin density and minimise visible wrinkles.

An EGF complex helps to support skin’s natural elastin and process of skin renewal, to target the appearance of aging factors like wrinkles, while promoting elasticity and firmness.

A solution of TGF improves skin’s integrity by supporting natural collagen to minimize visible lines and wrinkles, while promoting skin firmness and elasticity and smoothing skin texture.

Use:
Apply a few drops to the face in the morning and evening.
