Reviews For EltaMD Skin Recovery Reparative Skin Barrier Facial Serum
LOVE this serum!
I recently had a very deep chemical peel and after about 2 months, my skin started to break out and I have never had acne in my life. My dermatologist only suggests using Elta products after the peel so I decided to try to recovery serum. It is the only thing that heeled my skin and cleared up the acne. I will never use any other products again . . . it's Elta from now on!!

Great for physically stressed skin!
I always keep this product on hand. It’s great for when your skin is super dry or stressed.

Great under moisturizer or sunscreen
This serum provides nice lightweight moisture, especially underneath other lotions. It gives a great boost to dry skin. I also wear it under sunscreen with no issues. It is relatively thin and absorbs fairly quickly.

Worth it
I’ve struggled with rosacea for years, and any little thing would set it off. This product and EltaMD in general have never let me down. You feel a calming sensation while applying it on your face. My skin has never looked as good. Would definitely recommend to anyone struggling with skin conditions like rosacea.

Best Ever!
I first got this as a sample. I could tell it was a keeper. My face was very soft after applying it. It actually works like it says it will.

Makes a huge difference!
Since I started using tretinoin, my skin has struggled to stay hydrated. I got a sample of this lovely serum and tried it without expecting much. I’ve used EltaMD sunscreen for a while but never really thought about their other products. The difference was immediate—my skin was moisturized and glowing after two uses, and I immediately purchased the full size. I’ve been using it as a buffer at night before applying tret, and my skin is much happier. This is definitely a staple item for me now.

Amazing Hydrator
I use this as a hydrator daily. This is more hydrating than many really expensive moisturizers and HA serums. The price is very affordable, although somewhat small. I know it's for post treatment, but it is gentle enough and effective enough for daily use. I LOVE this and use this morning and night!! My favorite hands down hydrating serum!

Results Fast!
The Elta Recovery line gets results fast. The best my skin has felt and looked. My skin has been having a dry spell. The respond time was only 2 days! My routine is Elta pore minizer facial soap Elta Toner, Elta eye gel, Serum than Elta Recovery moisturizer. These products are all amazing and price is very fair.

Calming and nourishing
Though I've only been using this a few weeks, my sensitive skin feels great. It is gentle enough for me while providing support for the affects of aging (I'm 54). I have been using other EltaMD products for the past year, and am very happy with all of them.

Nice serum
I use this serum under my moisturizer in the morning. My skin looks very hydrated all day. The bonus is it help your collagen.

Soothing and hydrating
This stops redness from irritation and (so far) has completely prevented peeling after using too much retinol. The serum is light and deeply hydrating. It sinks in quickly, so a lot is needed to cover the face. This is a little too expensive for me to use as a daily moisturizer, but I love it for spot application to instantly stop skin irritation. Some reviewers have mentioned there is a scent, but I like it. It is slightly earthy and reminds me a little of sage tea.

Help for Sensitive Skin
I have developed sensitive skin issues in recent years including some light peeling on some areas of my face. My skin care products did not seem to be helping alleviate the problem so when I decided to try the EltaMD Skin Recovery System. So far it is helping alleviate the peeling. I hope it is a long-term solution!

EltaMD Skin Recovery Serum
This is a wonderful serum for when you have been overzealous with your retinol product! Highly recommend. I wish they had developed it sooner!!

Loved the sample so I ordered it
I love the scent and texture and it helped heal my skin. I only wish, for the price, there was more in the bottle.

This really works
I love this serum. I tried a small sample and discovered that I needed to order some more. It helps even out my skin tone and also helps a lot with my dry skin. I use it every day and my skin has a much more healthy look to it since I started using it.

Recovery Serum
Does not burn my skin after facial treatment. Have tried a few other similar products that left a burning sensation. "Elta MD" is very thin has almost no scent and seems to calm my skin. Will buy again when I need more.
