The packaging arrived and was easy to open. I love the dropper of this serum - it's different to others I have used with a feature that prevents it from dripping extra product when you remove it from the bottle. The liquid feels slightly sticky but it dries down well. The colour comes from the ginseng. The scent is not powerful and is not unpleasant. On the skin, the serum absorbs well and leaves an almost glass-skin-like sheen, especially on high points of the face. When the product dries down the skin is left feeling revived, supple and silky smooth. This product is best used after cleaning the face in the morning and evening, even better if the face is exfoliated for greater absorption.
