Good for the skin!
I ordered this product in my latest Lyko order. I've used it quite a bit since then. I'm very satisfied with my purchase and had also heard many good things about this serum before. The Ordinary has such affordable and good products🧖♀️ A bit exciting that the product is so pink in color, but you don't mind that when you like pink🧷 The dropper bottle works well, no hassle like some droppers can cause. I think the product calms and moisturizes the skin, and it feels smoother and more radiant afterwards. It also calms redness in the skin. I can recommend! 🥰 #lykoreviewTranslated from swedish

Skin ”pilling”
This product only caused ”pilling”, no matter how little or much I applied. Whether I smeared it or patted it in, waited several minutes with other products, had no other products, etc. It helped my skin, but since it is pink and became like it was ”flaking”, I will probably have to stop using it as it shows too much. Tried most things to get it to work properly, but nothing works. Very unfortunate because I had high hopes!Translated from swedish

Hi!
Is this good for rosacea skin?🙂383 views- Skin therapist at Lyko3 weeksHey Aino! 🩷 The serum contains many soothing and skin-strengthening ingredients that are good for rosacea skin. However, if you have very reactive skin, test a small amount of serum on a small area of skin first, as it also contains many effective antioxidants. Have a great weekend!

🤔
Can this be used together with La Roche-Posay Cicaplast Balm B5+?🌸Translated from swedish
1 likes460 views- Customer service at Lyko3 weeksHey there! 🥰👋 These are compatible and complement each other very well! Absolutely, use the serum first and then the cream either as a spot treatment or over the entire face, and remember the sunscreen during the day! 🌞 All the best now!

Consideration
Hi, I wonder if it's possible to use that together with Niacinamide in the same routine. And if so, which one should be used first after toner?Translated from swedish
480 views- Customer service at Lyko3 weeksHello! 🥰 You can use these together in the same routine, depending on how sensitive your skin is! Maybe Niacinamide would work better in the morning and this in the evening if that suits you best! Test it out carefully! ❤

Question
Can this product be used on younger skin?Translated from swedish
537 views- Customer service at Lyko3 weeksHey Liv! This serum works best for skin that is around 20 years old and up. You rarely see the need for younger skin to use this type of product! 🥰🙏 After that, it can have different properties based on where you are in life and how your skin reacts or skin type. All the best! 🌞

C Vitamin
Hi, can this be used with C vitamin? If not, why?1 likes761 views- Skin therapist at Lyko3 weeksHey! The Ordinary does not recommend combining this serum with C-vitamin. There are many possible reasons for this. 🌸 Soothing & Barrier serum contains many active and effective ingredients. The combination of several powerful antioxidants can cause skin irritation, especially on sensitive skin. 🌸 The pH value of the Soothing & Barrier serum is close to the skin's natural pH. In contrast, C-vitamin (L-ascorbic acid) works optimally at a lower pH. When combined, the pH discrepancy can weaken the effectiveness of C-vitamin and cause skin irritation. If you want to use both C-vitamin and Soothing & Barrier serum, I recommend using them on different days to avoid skin irritation and to get the best benefits from both products.

Can I give 10 stars?
This is the best product I have ever tried! I used Vitamin C and Retinoid until menopause and was happy with it. Until my skin changed overnight. It became incredibly dry, I who have always had oily skin, it became red and it burned. Absolutely terrible! I don’t know why I decided to try this, but I’m glad I did. It soothes, moisturizes, and reduces skin irritation 100%. But I MUST use it morning and night. Vitamin C and Retinoid/Retinol are being put on the shelf - my skin no longer accepts it. The Ordinary's barrier serum, Embryolisse's moisturizer for sensitive skin, and SPF 50 (from a brand LYKO doesn’t carry) are now the perfect combination for me. I cannot recommend this serum enough. It is absolutely magical. #lykoreviewTranslated from norwegian

Amazing!
This is truly pink gold in a bottle! This both moisturizes, soothes, and strengthens my skin! Especially nice to use on the days I use retinol 😊 I’m already on my second bottle and will continue to buy 💕 #lykoreviewTranslated from norwegian
