Sunday Riley | Good Genes Glycolic Acid Treatment

J

Obsessed

I have rosacea and have tried so many different products. This is the first thing that has ever made a difference. It has calmed my rosacea down and also evened out my complexion so makeup goes on better and stays on.

Betsy

Great Product, Crazy packaging

Having gotten hooked on the daytime & night-time packages, I've bought several Sunday Riley products and I think my skin is better; but their packaging makes me insane. They put a couple of ounces of liquid into heavy glass containers, with balky pumps.

CheddyGorgeous

Can’t be without it

I can see a difference when I’ve not used this for even a day. Has significantly improved the texture of my skin which very rarely suffers breakouts now, leaving it softer and really clear and bright. It’s a fantastic product.

Rach

Just AMAZING

One of the best products I have ever used. Would repurchase.

Lyds

Pleased customer

I can already see a whole difference after using it for a month. I will continue using it to see more improvements hopefully

Sabrina

Worth it!

Love this product, it just seems to clear up my skin, make it glow and just look amazing. Don't buy it unless you can afford to repurchase it as you'll be disappointed with your skin the minute you stop using it!

Aileen

Excellent well worth the money

Besides the auto-correct eye cream, this is my other favourite Sunday Riley product. My face feels amazing once I’ve applied this and looks good all day. It’s hydrating without being oily.

Mosie

Excellent product

This seems to act as a corrector to my various skin problems, and is pleasant and easy to use too. I find it sinks in well, even in the morning when time is of the essence. It lasts well and I think it is worth the money, given how much more effective it is than products offered by competitors.

S-J

New to acids

I’ve just started upping my face care routine and am new to acids in general. This product is incredible, wish I’d found it sooner! When you first apply it, you can feel the tingle which is pleasant, not painful! The next morning my skin feels so smooth and plump, with no irritation whatsoever. I love it! Worth the investment.

Chrissie

This Is Amazing

This is just amazing! It makes my skin look and feel younger and I keep rebuying it!

Ns

Amazing serum

I like this serum it’s amazing

Georgiana

Deserves its reputation

With Good Genes my face has been the most smooth and soft. Can’t imagine not having this product in my routine. My face is reactive since I use a few actives, but tolerates this serum well.

SARN

Fabulous

Got a sample of this and loved the results, so bought the full size. It’s amazing! I saw results in a week. My complexion seems more even and marks are fading! It’s a keeper for sure!!

Katie Lou

Pleasantly surprised

Felt nervous about buying this as it’s so damn pricey but am glad I did. After a week or so of using it at night and in the am I’ve noticed my pigmentation much improved. So much so, I don’t wear foundation during the day now, which has never happened in all of my 40 years. Believe the hype, the is stuff is GREAT. Yes, it’s pricey, but your skin is the only thing you wear every day so why not take damn good care of it....?! Will definitely repurchase again and again!

Sarah - Cult Beauty Staff

Now I see what all the fuss is about!

I don’t know why I was so scared to try this. Usually, glycolic acid makes me nervous but using this, I understand why everyone loves. My skin was looking a bit ‘meh’. Dry, flaky and textured. When I first tried it, I really did wake up feeling like I had a much smoother complexion. I don’t use it too often, just once or twice a week to give my skin a boost.

K-Mo

Glowing skin!

Such a great serum, my skin looks so much brighter and feels super smooth. Highly recommend this.

Rach

Best skincare product

I love this product...so much. I wake up to visibly-different skin. It is clearer, more even, slightly plumper & pores reduced. Not only that, but when using this product, I rarely get spots & when I do they are far less severe than before. This really is a game-changer & I would happily recommend it to anyone.

Pebz

Only thing that has worked, but runs out quick!

I started using this at the start of lockdown as having to wear masks for 12 hour shifts caused loads of breakouts. I first bought the smaller bottle which lasted me 3 months (which I thought was not long enough) I would only use 1 squirt a day which worked perfectly. I then bought the bigger bottle which has lasted me 4 months with the same usage. I find for the price, that it runs out too quick for me. However, saying that, it works SO well! I use it alongside Luna also and rarely wear make up now.

Eggie

Sleeping Beauty product!

It plumps up the skin at least temporarily. I like it a lot!

AJM

Great product

I love it great for the skin.

StevieB

Wish it was better

This didn’t really do it for me, I found it a bit too rich for my skin. Maybe it’s better for women’s skin than men’s. I really wanted to like it more and have continued to use it but my view hasn’t changed. I think the Oskia acid stuff is better for the boys as it’s not as rich and the skin doesn’t feel greasy afterwards.

Sol

Amazing

Would definitely recommend!!

Tsal

Hydrating

Love this serum, I found that when I use it in the evenings I wake up the next morning with hydrated and soft skin. Even though it has glycolic acid it’s non drying which also brightens my skin.

Becki

Amazing product

Price was a big sticking point for me with this product but luckily I had a sample which really helped. I have been using this in the morning and UFO in the evening after cleansing and noticed a real difference in my skin. Not only is my skin more hydrated, but my pores also are less clogged and my skin looks refreshed!

KB

Amazing!!

I’ve been wanting to try this for ages and I’m so glad I did! I’m nearly 40 and this has made my skin absolutely glow and look so clear. Would definitely recommend!!

Dumpers76

Good Genes

Bought for my girlfriend, she loves it!!

Liv

Amazing product

This product just does wonders for your skin, would highly recommend

Nat

Plumped up skin

I have been using Good Genes for over five years. It's part of my daily beauty routine and I use it day and night. No other product hydrates or plumps up my skin like Good Genes does. I preferred the original formula which contained lactic acid, however the new formula still delivers.

sophia

Worth every penny

I almost never leave reviews but I feel like I have to on this product. I’ve suffered from pretty bad acne since my very early teens and I’m now in my 20s and it hasn’t let up, even with a very strict skincare routine — until I found this product. Within a week I noticed an incredible difference in my skin, a change that not even creams prescribed by a doctor could do for me. I literally use one pump on my face at night, before moisturising. It can tingle a bit, but it’s nothing incredibly uncomfortable. I know it’s an expensive product, incredibly so, but for someone like me who’s spent hundreds and hundreds of pounds over the past decade trying to find something that works and they all failed, I’d happily spend the money over and over again for this product. The one thing I must stress to people though is that it can make your skin sensitive to the sun, so please make sure to apply SPF while you’re using this product!

Gem

Gave me confidence

I bought a mini of this and luna and I'm over the moon. They have cleared my skin so much to the point where I have been leaving the house without skin makeup on, something I would NEVER do in the past. I have very dry, textured skin typically (no spots but quite an uneven colouring although not now with this) and this has improved it. My pores are less noticeable and my makeup goes on much more seamless and looks natural as my skin is so clear now. The price is quite crazy and I can't afford it really, so it is an investment but I would say worth it for the confidence I've gained, I will be purchasing a full size.

Ginny

Significant improvement

I had regular facials (1x every 8-12 weeks or so) prior to lockdown and started using this regularly to deal with my sebaceous filaments on my nose - they have diminished significantly using this every day for about 4 weeks now in conjunction with a salicylic acid cleanser and light moisturiser. The only thing I would say is that it has given me a few dry patches across my chin but so worth it to see the difference in my skin. Baby soft elsewhere and feels so glowy! I would 100% recommend it.

Glow With Parii

Used on Combination skin.....

PROS: helped smooth my skin and fine lines, I saw a decrease in pimples and the look of pore size, gives a wonderful glow and the smell is decent. CONS: The price, and it's hard to empty completely the bottle without smashing it open. WOULD I BUY AGAIN? Yes definitely x

Rannia

Glowing skin after use!

I use it 1 per week due to sensitivity of my skin. Face is glowing the morning after. Highly recommended.

EC

You can feel the product working!

This glycolic acid is fantastic! I usually use alpha H but wanted to try a cream formula instead. It does not disappoint even with its price tag. You have to double cleanse first to really feel a difference, however, you feel a tingle straight away once it’s massaged into the face. A staple in my evening routine now.

EastMidsGirl

Worth every penny!

Man, this stuff is expensive but wow, does it work! My combination skin feels baby soft and looks clear and bright. My few spots have disappeared, dry patches have cleared up, my wrinkles don't seem as deep and my pores are definitely smaller. Even my husband commented on how good my skin was looking! I slather this on last thing at night, followed by the Luna Sleeping Oil and wake up to perfect skin every time.

ss08

the best thing ever

I'm on my third bottle of this. it is the best thing ever. I use it at night and my skin in the morning looks amazing, evens out skin tone, helps with acne, scarring. You can tell it actually is doing something once you put it on. Defo try this out if you like Alpha H liquid gold

SusieQ3

Waste of money

So disappointed with this, I have used half of the contents and I can see no difference at all to my pigmentation or fine lines. I don’t expect miracles but I get so frustrated when companies promise results especially at this price, all I can say is don’t waste your money.

Ayah- CB staff

Amazing

This product is amazing! I instantly saw results of brighter and clearer skin.

Valentina

Maybe buy again

A good thing if used regularly and for a month or two. It didn’t completely remove my acne, but it definitely reduced them. And smells nice

Sarah A

Love this product!

I have a combination skin that breaks out every now and then, after using good genes it rarely does! When I say rarely I meant I had a small blemish that vanished the day after. My skin is glowy and flawless. Will repurchase for sure.

Ash

Disappointed

Compared to the original Good Genes this product is very poor. I have yet to see any of the benefits that I loved about the original. For glycolic acid, it is way too expensive and I would not recommend this product.

Dina

And the Oscar goes to...

I'm 35 and middle eastern. Not many problems with my skin except a few fine lines around my eyes, and some dullness. I have purchased this product 4 times already. It is a holly grail. I advise every one to have it on their routine. not required to be used daily; too expensive! start off with twice a week, and build up to 3 if needed. I prefer this to the original lactic acid, the results are so visible! my fine lines have disappeared, skin is glowing, and even old pigmentations (which used to be barely noticeable) have gone. I love it. so worth the money.

Racla

Bring back lactic acid!

Now the formulation of this has changed from lactic to glycolic this product is completely different on me. EU regulation required it but still, if your someone who doesn’t suit glycolic or have tried it and not lactic then try and you will see the difference. I’ve now moved onto the Oskia liquid peel which is lactic and niacinamide. So much better than this formulation. Love most other Sunday products.

ClaireBear

LOVE THIS PRODUCT!!

I’m never one to leave reviews but I thought I had to with this product! I’ve been using this every evening after cleansing and before moisturiser for one month now and my skin is FLAWLESS!! I used with the Juno Oil if my skin is feeling dull or dry and this is amazing for hungover skin. I have combination skin which often breaks out but I’ve had nothing with this so it’s amazing!! 100% recommend and 100% will repurchase.

Aleksandra

could be better

I bought Good Genes Glycolic Acid and The Ordinary Lactic Acid. After two weeks using can say that for me Lactic Acid works better and price much more suitable. Maybe it's going to take a lot longer to feel better result so I will continue to use GG and look at the effect.

Anna

Quite good

One pump is enough for face and neck, another one needed for decollete. Some areas still tickle when applied. The creamy feeling lasts until evening, and slightly oily when washed. The smell could be improved...

Aida

Clean young skin

I did not believe that this product would be so good. But when I started to use it, I realised that Good Genes Glycolic Acid Treatment really deserves all these great reviews. After two weeks of use, I noticed that my skin looked younger, cleaner and smoother. The serum brightens my skin and evens it out. It is very pleasant to use - it has a light, unobtrusive aroma with a beautiful texture. I bought the 30ml bottle, when it is finished I'll be sure to buy the 50ml.

Kate

Great product

I really see and feel the difference!

Good Genes - a Heavenly Skin Saver

Sunday Riley's Good Genes is a must-have favorite of mine and is in my top 5 favorite skin care products that I stock up on all year long! Love, love, love Sunday Riley and I am a skincare junkie that has tried most high end and money saver skin care products but this is a must have. I got my mother to try this and she too now uses this all year round as well!!! I am in my late 30's with very dry skin and blemishes from time to time and with this in my skincare routine my face is supple, plump and wrinkle free :-) I promise you will not be disappointed and Cult Beauty, THANK YOU so much! I am addicted to your wonderful website and awesome products... Sincerely, a very satisfied Customer

Natalia

Omg! So good

Bought the travel size, after 3 days of using I saw results. My skin is glowing, even skin tone... So good that I immediately bought the full size. I am so happy about it.

Rannthor

Great.

I love it! The tingling feeling of it doing it's magic is awesome and the result shows pretty quickly.

Farhi

Awesome

I have a very sensitive skin, especially on my cheeks. It tends to get reddish most of the time. I was very sure that it would tingle the moment I applied it on my face, but God gracious it does not tingle at all. I use it every night and, boy, the next morning my face has this awesome glow. All the dullness and redness has slowly faded away.

Livia

Amazing

Best investment I ever made. I love this product, it is worth every penny! I previously used the Drunk Elephant TLC but I didn’t see much difference in my skin. So I wanted to try this. After using a sample and seeing amazing results over night, I purchased the whole bottle! Totally recommend!

Nicole

A New Favourite

I’m really surprised by the not-so-good reviews for this product. I originally received a sample, after one use my skin was super soft and instantly brightened. I had to treat myself to the full size!

Evsi

Great as old one!

I was really skeptical about the new formula and how my skin would react to it, but it turned out as effective as the old one with lactic acid in it. Fortunately for me it's still the only product that makes a difference on my acne prone super oily skin! I'm glowing!

Saf

Not for me.

Strong on my skin. It made my skin burn and caused me to break out. I have combination, dehydrated skin. Could be because my skin is dehydrated.

Chablis

Great!

This my second bottle. My skin looks much better, smoother, more radiant and much better hydrated. It is amazing even fine (dehydration) lines are practically non existent. An absolute must have for me, in my daily care!

Rana

Amazing!

One of the best products in my skincare routine! Love it!

Suelan

Wow!

The only thing I can say is that I hope to always be able to afford this bottle of magic!

Lo

Amazing

This is a great product. Instead of being a water based acid toner this one is a cream. It feels super nice when you smooth it on and it really helps to refine my skin tone. I totally thank Caroline Hirons for introducing this product! It’s totally worth the price.

Karolina

Great product

It was a part of one the goodie bags. Very surprised with the results - my skin is glowing and it kills any sign of a breakout. 100% going to repurchase.

Alexandra

Wow!

I decided to treat myself to this product as I fancied trying something new in my skincare routine and this didn't disappoint. It's so creamy and just sinks into your skin. I have really bad menstrual breakouts and these have kept the spots away, smoothed out the look of my pores and my skin glows! I'm really impressed. The price point is a little high, but if you're after a really nice treat for yourself, it's so worth it!

Ana

Game changer!

Can't recommend this product enough!

Noor

Happy Face

Got the large bottle and so happy I did. I’m on Accutane and almost done. So for the last 10 months, I’ve really not used anything except SPF and moisturiser. I have been too scared/lazy to do anything beyond that. My skin is soft, plump, and looking bright. My makeup application is seamless. I use it every night, and at work, I’ve been getting comments about how glowy and great I look. “Your skin is amazing. You look younger.” I’m almost 30, and I feel like my skin got the bounce back from my early 20’s. Gentle, easy application, and lovely results. A staple in my life now. I’ve been using it for three weeks nightly, and feel so good in my skin. Worth the money.

Nikki

Game changer

I’ve never really been one to buy expensive skincare but this product has truly been a game-changer. A few years ago I started suffering from breakouts and blemished skin on a regular basis after years of clear skin, nothing worked and I had no idea how to improve my skin quality. I received a sample of this product in a gift box and my skin cleared in a week, I could not believe the change and a month later my skin texture had improved and breakouts had disappeared! I’ve since gone on to purchase the larger size of this product and can honestly say it’s worth every penny.

Gemsiek

Amazing

This is the most money I have EVER spent on a skincare product and that's because it's AMAZING! My skin practically glows. My pores are reduced, but skin tone is more even, and my problem area of my chin has never been clearer. Very expensive but worth every penny

Robuns

Lovely Product

This is a lovely product with lots of plumping and moisturising properties. You can also really feel that glycolic tingle. I wish it weren't so expensive so that I could afford to have it on my top shelf at all times

Simona

Good product

Good product, my skin looks bright and soft after applying, I wish the effect would last longer

Sarah

I shouldn’t have waited so long to buy it!!!

This serum is truly amazing. Like others, I had put off buying it for so long because of the price tag. I’m so glad I bit the bullet! My skin is loving it. It’s now a firm favourite in my skincare routine.

Phèdre

Le produit qui a changé ma peau

Ce sérum est le produit qui change tout pour moi, c’est juste ce dont j’avais besoin. Non seulement il est le remède que j’ai tant chercher contre mon acné hormonale qui a rendu ma peau hyper grasse mais en plus il l’a rééquilibré. Ressert mes pores et rends tout sont éclat et sa jeunesse à ma peau. Il permet même aux hydratant que je mets après de mieux faire leur job. J’ai essayé d’autres acides glycolique mais vraiment c’est celui la ma perfection! Je l’aime je l’aime. J’ai la peau sensible et fine et je peux le mettre matin et soir. Ma jumelle qui a la peau très sèche n’aime pas vraiment l’utiliser ça la « pique » un peu donc peut-être pas pour tout le monde! *************** This serum is the product that changes everything for me, it’s just what I needed. Not only is it the remedy I have been looking for so much for my hormonal acne which made my skin hyper oily, but it also rebalanced it. Tightened my pores and restored radiance and youthfulness to my skin. It even allows the moisturizers I put on afterward to do their job better. I have tried other glycolic acids but this really is my perfection! I love it, I love it. I have sensitive, thin skin and can still put it on morning and night. My twin who has very dry skin doesn’t really like to use it because it tingles a bit so maybe not for everyone!

Jake

Too Strong

This product gives you a beautiful glow but be warned.. this is strong! Even if you are used to using very strong aids this compromised my skin barrier when used as often as directed. As I type this I am wearing it as a mask and it's extremely tingly, even after giving it a break to heal my skin. So overall, great product gives you a nice glow and surely exfoliates the skin, but I would give a word of caution to those considering purchasing.

Bells

Baby Soft Skin

Love this! Feels so nice on the skin and doesn't sting too much like other AHAs I've tried. Really deep exfoliation and has made a huge difference to my hyperpigmentation. I apply this at night and my skin feels baby soft the next day. Really recommend this product!

Kato

Transformative

This has transformed my skin- amazing. reduced fine lines, improved texture and far smaller pores and reduced redness - this has really improved my mild rosacia. I am in my early 50's and this has taken years off and rejuvenated my skin. i have stopped wearing makeup- no need. Cost- worth every penny and I now always keep a back up. you only need a tiny bit of this- half a pump every night works perfectly.

Mags

Love it!

I do not know how to measure the effects of skin products, but this feels amazing and I end up buying it over and over again.

DebDeb

A repeat purchase for YEARS

This is something I’ve been repurchasing for years, every time I’ve tried to try something new my skin just doesn’t like it and so I come back to good genes. I was concerned when they switched things out from lactic acid to glycolic acid but after first trying it instantly still does exactly the same as the lactic acid formula. I use this along side the Luna oil and the Charlotte tilbury magic cream and honestly the 3 of them are incredible together. I’m a make up artist by trade and I always tell my clients make up is only 20% of your look, the other 80% is your skin care. I spend most days now wearing zero make up because this product has truly made me happy with my skin!

Lex

My #1

This is one of 5 of products I absolutely cannot live without. It does everything it claims - brightens, improves texture, reduces redness, prevents acne, and helps clear my pores. It doesn't leave my skin feeling dry, even when I'm too lazy to layer a moisturizer on top. I use it at least 4 nights a week. It's pricey but worth it. A little goes a long way, I need to restock only about once a year. For reference, I have combination/oily, acne-prone skin.

Raluca

Great

It does the trick! I am happy with it!

MCE

Worth every penny

I never thought I needed this, till I tired SR Auto Correct eye cream (amazing) then thought I'd invest in some more heavy duty serums. Mrs Hirons inspired this purchase but I am so glad I did. I even have a back up ready to use when it runs out. Makes my face so much softer, more glowing, bright and overall I have so many more good skin days. Get a mini if you're in doubt, but I promise you won't look back.

Hannah111

Lovely product

I had wanted to try this for a while and glad I did - it makes skin look clearer.

Vk

Amazing

Love this, my skin feels and looks amazing, bought another bottle

Alana

Great, fast results

Love this product. I tried a sample first and noticed an immediate effect - plumper and smoother looking skin after just 2 uses. I bought a bottle soon after and it’s made such a difference to my skin. When I first started using it, it stung a little, but that faded after 2 uses and I don’t feel anything at all now. My skin is looking smoother and brighter. It’s the best product I own and wouldn’t be without it.

Isi

Great product

Definitely helped even out my complexion and has reduced breakouts. Would totally recommend and just wanted to note that a little goes a long way - don’t try use too much of this. The only con is the price, as the bottle is quite small!

Olleeoop

Makes my skin glowy and plumped

My skin (usually normal to slightly dry) tends to get super dry in winter. I had tried to use masks, hyaluronic acids and heavy moisturising creams, it helped only for a couple of hours - by the end of the day my skin felt dehydrated. Then about a year and a half ago I got a promo kit with Good Genes and Luna, and those two helped me a lot. First I introduced GG into my routine: I used it in the evening right after cleansing and toning, my skin immediately felt plumped and very soft, and it was radiant. In the morning my skin was still hydrated and glowy, and all the serums and creams absorbed better. Recently I've tried Glycolic Acid by DE - it's okay, but I find that Good Genes suits me better

Saba

Love it

This product changed my skin completely. I would definitely reorder.

C

So worth it

This product is honestly worth every penny. I suffer from sensitivity and redness on my cheeks and this is by far the most effective product I’ve used - pores look smaller, redness has gone down, and I’ve had no breakouts since using this every night. Could not recommend more, even for sensitive skin this is a dream.

Mar

Beauty Secret

Although I do prefer the US formula of this which uses lactic acid, I still think this one does the trick! I find it evens out my skins texture while leaving a nice glow. I like it for the day when I feel like my skin needs a boost and I like it at night to help with repair. Can't go wrong with Good Genes and will continue to repurchase it!

Ink

Gives a glow

I have used this product for about 7 years, and it always gives a glow and helps even out fine lines. I am very picky, too! I only use it for special occasions, as it is pricey, but I can honestly recommend this.

JJ

Amazing

Great lotion for brighter skin!

Lauren

Worth it

It’s expensive however does what it need to do in less the time of cheaper products that claim to do the same. I compared this to The Ordinary and Drunk Elephant and found that Good Genes is just better. Reduces pores, exfoliates skin creating a glow. I use this twice a week with the Luna sleeping oil. My skin is oily but can be dry at times deep into winter.

Chris

Pricey, but - it DOES the trick

For quite some years I'm using already different kind of 'chemical' peelings (you know, the usual suspects, AHA, BHA ...) with so far great results: Less break-outs, smooth and bright skin and a wonderful, healthy glow even at my very pale skin-tone. Even there are quite cheaper products out there telling me they have at least the same concentration of, like, Glycolic acid, I gave this one a try and so far it's the best I found: A little goes a veeeeeeery loooooong way and somehow I have the feeling that this product is 'stronger' compared to others, it might be the pH-value, it might be another ingredient - however, it's even the very first time I got a slight sunburn when staying outside in the freezingly cold German winter for quite some time a couple of weeks ago, so this already tells me how good this one works. And yes, I am aware that I should have been using sunscreen. ;) In short: Will re-purchase, without any doubt. And it's going to replace some 'ordinary' products as well as some 'doctor'-brands so far I've been using with great success.

Shonya

Save your money - totoally overrated

I'm glad I never invested in this (I came very cose to impulse buying!) - I worked my way though a deluxe sample and can't say much other than it gave me more little bumps on my skin. Going back to my Dr. Dennis Gross 2 step wipes. Sunday Riley products are a joke.

Bradmoreboy

amazing

I love Sunday Riley Good Genes! I use it quite sparingly, maybe two-three times a month, and the difference it makes is noticeable every time. My skin looks and feels fresher, brighter and smoother. Just remember not to use it on hot sunny days as your skin will be much more likely to react to the sun.

Wanessa

Best product ever

I use it everyday, it's the best for my skin!

M

Love it!

Best there is.

Gabi

I love this product!

I really love this product. My skin is so much better.

Elizavetameisenberg

Love it so far, but...

First I ordered a mini version because, let’s be honest, it’s quite pricy. I was so flashed by the first night with it. My skin was just glowing, my acne was so much better in a short time. And I still really love it, I buy it over and over again but the only thing I really hate in it is dryness. My skin is oily and I never had anything, that would make it so dry. And I‘ve tried a lot of acid stuff. I will definitely continue to use it and I’m sure, it will show me more results after some months or so. But if you buy it, it will need a super moisturizer.

Jackie

Awesome product for brightening your face during sleep!

Incredible result when you wake up. This is the fifth time I've repurchased.

Estefania

No observé mejorías en el rostro. ***I didn't notice improvements in the face.

Es un producto que puede irritar y dar picazón ,los primeros días lo use poco a poco hasta tolerar el producto,no vi ningún resultado del antes al después.Prefiero invertir ese dinero en un buena crema que contenga retinol porque es un ingrediente que da buenos resultados y funciona muy bien. ***It is a product that can irritate and itch. The first days I used it little by little to tolerate the product, I did not see any result. I prefer to invest that money in a good cream that contains retinol because it is an ingredient that gives good results and it works very well.

Nath

Immediate results

This is the only product that I’ve used and shows results like the next day. Bought the sample size first but I did not even wait for it to finish and bought the full size. An excellent product!

Lucy Lockets

An absolute game changer!

I’ve been using this product for about 3 months now, and it’s fair to say, it’s absolutely incredible. I use this in combination with a variety of other Sunday Riley products in my skin routine, so I can’t say for certain that this is the only factor, however, my skin feels much brighter and skin tone is more even after just one use. Well worth the money! You only need one pump for your whole face, so the 30ml bottle I have is still mainly full, and that’s after 3 months’ worth of use. A must buy!

Federica

Brand new skin

Everybody talks about SR products, and I thought it only was empty hype... But it's not! I've just finished the travel size (7ml - which lasted me for over a month) and I'm in love. It's a serum with a feather-light texture and one pump is enough for the whole face, but I pump it twice as I also apply it on my neck and decolletè. My skin is now more even and brighter: I had few dark spots and residue of some acne from last year, and they've almost completely faded away... ^_^

I’m new to this cult of skin care. First I used the Drunk Elephant TLC; I was happy at the beginning but in the end I didn’t feel any more effects on my skin. I finished and decided to get one of these. And it’s been amazing so far - smaller pores, reducing blemishes, elasticity and my face is soft as a baby skin. Really happy I purchased this product and probably I will do it again!

Wonderful

Great results for my skin. Very helpful with pigmentation.

Expensive, but excellent

If your budget allows this item and you're having problems similar to mine - go for it, absolutely worth it. Better than any other acid product I tried (Drunk Elephant TLC, Alpha H). I am: 25, acne prone skin with a tendency to scarring and pigmentation. I would NOT use it: - Summer Time - too strong - Mornings - very greasy and horrible under sunscreen - On open/raw areas, like a healing blemish. - It actually helps to heal but hurts. - On a daily basis - waste of product. I would use it: - Occasionally, up to 3 times a week - Over your bare face or after a toner - Start with less than one pump and work your way up Results: even skin tone, minimal blemishes - just the occasional hormonal ones, which have become smaller and quicker to heal, diminishing pigmentation. I'm actually comfortable going around my day without makeup in public, which was a no-go just a year ago.

Brilliant.

I use this in the mornings and it brightens and tightens my skin and makes it look glowing all day. Love it.

Skeptical at first but...

I use this every other night, you don't need a lot, one half a pump I find is plenty. It doesn't have a SPF so I wouldn't use it during the day, it does make your face tingle slightly but in the morning my skin feels plumper. I'm a 43 year old woman with rosacea and can be prone to some breakouts, since using this my breakouts are very few and far between, but my rosacea hasn't changed. Haven't noticed a difference in my fine lines, but overall my skin is brighter and smoother.

Best thing since sliced bread!

There aren’t enough positive words to describe Good Genes. I was given a set at Christmas that contained a small bottle of this and it did wonders on my oily, spot prone skin. I will always keep repurchasing this because it completely changes the look and texture of my skin with use every other night. I don’t put anything under or over the top and just leave it to work it’s magic.

Effective, but not harsh.

I was a bit scared to try this out as I have sensitive skin and this tingles a lot for the first few seconds after application. However, it did not cause any negative reaction on my skin. I saw a visible difference in my skin even after a few applications. I have a lot of dry patches normally, these disappear after a few applications. It also reduces the appearance of fine lines. Great product.

Unimpressed

This product made no visible difference to my skin apart from dehydrating it. It’s not worth the hype, perhaps I have rhino skin, who knows.

Not the same

The new formula does not work the same at all. They’ve changed the type of acid. All this one does is break me out. I’m distraught.. I waited months!

Brilliant!

I am ecstatic with this product and what it has done for my skin! I’ve been taking the plunge into purchasing more expensive skincare recently because it’s become something that I want to take more interest in, and Good Genes certainly proved that my decision was worth it. After starting my higher end skincare routine my skin is glowing, it’s a hundred times more hydrated and it DEFINITELY is brighter and smoother. I used to get acne around my chin and the odd pimple on my forehead but since using this my skin is clear and I’m noticing that any scarring is fading away rapidly as my skin gets more even and bright. If you’re trying to love your skin more like I am, I would say absolutely go for it, I know it looks dauntingly expensive but I am so much happier and confident in myself when I see that my skin is clear and radiant and we all deserve to feel that way!
