Reviews For EltaMD Skin Recovery Reparative Skin Barrier Facial Serum
Stability regained in skin
Is your skin acting out of character? Pealing? Itching? Dry? This product helps stabilize your skin so that it can regain its regular state of being. It’s not perfect, but neither are we. It’s a good solution when there is no relief.

feels like butter and soft as silk
I love this balm. It goes on so smooth and feels amazing. Great on sensitive skin and really retains moisture barrier.

An Essential Morning Serum
I’m outside for some kind of physical activity every single morning. I wash my face beforehand and apply this serum and then follow with a moisturizer. It’s really a noticeable effect on keeping my skin healthy, supple and smooth. It’s been a daily habit for over 3 years.

A little goes a long way!
I have been using this for a year and a half and get compliments on my skin all the time. I am 70+ and don't have wrinkles like my peers and my sisters. I think it is because I have always used a moisturizer and foundation with sunscreen. I have a little bit or rosacea and by using this and a vitamin C oil, it has gone away. I no longer use foundation but use the EltaMD tinted sunscreen. These 3 products have evened out my skin and softened the crows feet to practically nothing. Very pleased but wished it was a bigger container.

Wow
This is the first product I apply to my face after a shower to repair my skin barrier. It's bland and non-irritating yet extremely effective. It gives my skin supple firmness and my other products layer well on top of this.

AMAZING
this serum has saved my skin. i had a very bad damaged skin barrier and in less than 1 month my skin has done a 180 and is almost perfectly clear. It is super pricey but worth it

Ever since I've started using this, my skin has felt bright, smooth, even and healthy. It genuinely makes me feel better about myself and I'm glad I had a sample I decided to use. Give this one a shot!

Great serum!
Makes my skin super soft and hydrated. I use it only at night before applying the eltaMd pm moisturizer. My skin is super sensitive but it doesn’t make me breakout.

My Favorite Skin Serum
EltaMD Skin Recovery Serum has proven to be the best serum for me to use both daily and after having had any facial procedures. I have had no adverse reaction while using this product.

Still trying but amazing so far
I'm not a jelly texture kind of person but this cream is an amazing hybrid. Feels cooling and when it dryers creates a nice barrier for overnight recovery. next morning skin is definitely more hydrated and hair has the benefits even if u can't see it.

Can see improvement!
I’m a fan, using several Elta MD products, and I’m happy I’ve added their recovery serum to my routine. I use it at night, applying after Elta MD toner and before Elta MD PM moisturizer. My skin drinks it up, and my face has definitely looked fresher and brighter since I started. It comes in a clever little dispenser but wish it was a little bit bigger. Highly recommend.

Adverse skin reaction
Using this product resulted in terrible eczema on my face, resulting in a trip to my Dermatologist and a steroid injection. He said that EltaMD skin products can cause bad reactions. I was also surprised at how difficult it was to even get a small amount of the product out of the packaging, the packaging is somewhat deceptive containing what appears to be a very small amount, so for the cost you wouldn't have much to use. In any case, I stopped using after a few days because of the bad reaction that I experienced, but probably didn't have that much, really hard to get anything to pump out. So negative review on both quality AND quantity. Very disappointed!

This WORKS for dry skin!
This product has been a lifesaver for me during the cold winter months when I spend a lot of time indoors in heated rooms. The skin around my eyes really takes a beating - itchy, red, and generally miserable. This serum soothes and hydrates. I have incorporated it into both my morning and night skin care routines. It's very gentle yet very effective. Glad I found it!

The best serum ever for me.
I very sensitive skin. Even some products specifically for sensitive skin are a problem for me. 74 years old, sensitive skin, epidermis very thin=make me very careful for skin products for my face. This serum was recommended to me a couple of years back, when a wrongfully facial left my skin very damaged. It took time for the improvement, but it really healed my skin. I have continued using it after cleaning and before moisturizer and sunscreen. I recommend it for sensitive skin people.

So great for sensitive skin
I have sensitive skin, so I am careful about ordering products. Got a sample of this in the light moisturizer version & really liked it. Thought I'd try this & liked it too & use it as a follow up to using tretinoin cream with irritates sometimes. Having micro-needling done tomorrow, so ordered the light moisturizer to use post procedure as I trust it more than other products I've tried.
