Waterlock First Serum - Deep Hydration Booster for a Dewy, Healthy Skin Barrier

Before using this serum shake the bottle to mix the ingredients. You can see in the photo how it looks before shaking ( white foam on top, clear on bottom) and after where it’s mixed together. The pump works great where you can get a small amount out and that’s all it takes to do face and neck for me. It comes out in a foam that melts into water like serum as you rub it on. The serum soaked into my skin pretty fast and left my skin looking and feeling hydrated and moisturized. Directions say to apply after cleansing so it’s like a toner and serum combo. I didn’t smell any fragrance and it isn’t tacky, greasy or sticky feeling. I have dry patches after I clean my face and this got rid of them. My moisturizer went on smoothly and soaked in. The serum has quality ingredients like jojoba oil, squalane and Hyaluronic acid. I am pleased with this and think it’s a good value because it only takes a small amount so the bottle will last.

I've tried plenty of facial serums, but this is my first foaming serum. I have to admit, when I first pumped it into my hand, I was a little concerned that it was going to be more like soap than serum. Thankfully, that's not the case at all. Although it comes out as a light, airy foam, once applied to my face, it feels much more like a traditional serum. It has a nice, slick consistency that spreads easily across my skin and feels hydrating and comfortable. It doesn't have that soapy feeling I was initially worried about. It is fragrance-free, which is important to me. I also like the ingredient list, which includes hyaluronic acid, jojoba oil, squalane, and other moisturizing ingredients. The bottle is a generous 5+ ounces, and because of the foaming dispenser, a small amount goes a long way. I think this bottle is going to last quite a while since I don't need much product with each application. It's definitely a different approach to facial serum, but it seems effective, and I'm pleasantly surprised by how much I like it. Between the hydrating feel, easy application, and generous amount of product, I think it's a great value for the cost.

I really like the experience of applying this skincare product. The bottle needs a shake first, to mix the layers evenly. Then it pumps out in a nice foam that was super easy to apply. A little goes a long way. I have not had any drips or mess associated with the pump. No fragrance or essential oils are included. I did not detect any scent. While the Cecith Waterlock First Serum goes on thinly, it does leave my skin slightly sticky. However, it's not uncomfortably tacky - I take it more as a sign that it really is helping in improve the "moisure-locking" ability of my skin. Overall, it absorbs quickly. Two thumbs up, I'll continue to include this product in my nightly routine. On first application, I only used this product and then my usual moisturizer. And honestly, the two products felt like "enough" - leading me to think this is a highly effective serum, even if it's a "first" one intended to be followed up with others.

The viscosity of this serum looks intriguing! There is mostly a clear, watery layer on the bottom and some white, milky layer on top. When you tilt the bottle, this milky layer floats around gloopishly. Before using it, you’re supposed to shake the bottle to mix the 2 layers together. What’s even more fascinating is that what actually gets pumped out is a foamy product! As you massage this foam into your skin, it transforms into a watery, weightless consistency and absorbs beautifully without any stickiness. It layers under other products with no issue and is scent-free. My skin feels noticeably hydrated and more refined!

Deep hydration without the heaviness. This serum really helps with that tight, dry feeling and leaves skin soft and comfortably plump. The mix of hyaluronic acid, panthenol, ceramide, and oils gives the moisture barrier a nice boost. It absorbs fast, no stickiness, and works well as the first step before moisturizer or sunscreen.
