Firstly, I requirement to make a PSA: when once again I’m in SPAM HELL.  I’ve discovered that numerous of my comments on other blogs are disappearing which implies they’re likely being flagged as spam. Please inspect your spam folder as shown in this post. I just recently upgraded to Windows 10 system, not sure if that’s what triggered it, grrrr.  Onward to the post!

I didn’t originally set out to compare these two serums, however then I discovered exactly how similar their bottles are:

Höger? I’ve been utilizing the Estee Lauder advanced night repair work Synchronized healing complex II at nights as well as the Holika Holika One service Anti-Wrinkle for days – let’s see exactly how these two carry out as well as compare.

Estée Lauder advanced night repair work Synchronized healing complex II

This product has a cult following. I’m always game to try something prominent to see if it lives as much as the hype. I’ve been itching to try this as well as I lastly redeemed points for it in January. I’ve been utilizing this for about 2 months.

This has a faint dirty medicinal odor that’s like a blend of crushed up headache tablets as well as moist sawdust. It has no added fragrance so the odor is a combination of its ingredients.

The serum has a somewhat gooey structure that dries to a somewhat tacky surface on the skin. It spreads well as well as takes in into the skin quickly. I utilize this after I’ve cleansed as well as toned my skin, as well as before my moisturizer.  The previously mentioned scent does not linger.

This serum declares to assist decrease fine lines, enhance hydration as well as much more even toned skin. Let’s see what’s in this thing:

Ingredienser:
Water, Bifida Ferment Lysate, Methyl Gluceth-20, PEG-75, Bis-PEG-18 Methyl Ether Dimethyl Silane, Butylene Glycol, Propanediol, Cola Acuminata (Kola) Seed Extract, Hydrolyzed Algin, Pantethine, Caffeine, Lecithin, Tripeptide-32, Ethylhexylglycerin, Sodium Rna, Bisabolol, Glycereth-26, Squalane, Sodium Hyaluronate, Oleth-3 Phosphate, Caprylyl Glycol, Lactobacillus Ferment, Oleth-3, Oleth-5, Anthemis Nobilis (Chamomile), Yeast Extract, Choleth-24, Hydrogenated Lecithin, Ceteth-24, Tocopheryl Acetate, Ethylhexyl Methoxycinnamate, Hexylene Glycol, Carbomer, Triethanolamine, Trisodium EDTA, BHT, Xanthan Gum, Phenoxyethanol, Red 4 (CI 14700), Yellow 5 (CI 19140).

The 2nd ingredient, after water, “Bifida Ferment Lysate” is a type of probiotic, which is the very first I’ve heard of probiotics in skincare. all of us understand about probiotics in yogurt as well as supplements which are “good” bacteria as well as yeast that assist with the digestive tract.  It seems that when utilized in skincare, probiotics act as an antioxidant. based on what I’ve checked out online, the science is still not firm on exactly how probiotics used topically assists the skin.

EDIT!: fellow blog writer Victoria highlighted an component to me: Triethanolamine (the 8th component from the bottom). This stuff is harmful to the skin (causing irritation) as well as ought to not be included in skincare that’s implied to stay on the skin like moisturizer or oh a SERUM!?  I’m dropping the score down because of this!  Please inspect out Victoria’s informative publish on this subject. Thank you Victoria for pointing this out to me!

I should admit that I didn’t see visible difference utilizing this nightly for at least a month. however I persevered. I understand that people discovered considerable enhancements with this serum however I discovered the results to be subtle for me.

The many visible enhancement I saw was much more gleam on my skin however I did not discover that it assisted much in hydration even though it includes squalane as well as hyaluronic acid.  I did not see reduction in fine lines (I was focusing on my laugh lines).

I always like exactly how high-end skincare include a large sheet of info in several languages.  I can never fold these sheets back into the original form.
The serum retails for $80 for a 30ml bottle. larger sizes at 50ml ($118) as well as 115ml ($225) are likewise available.

Fördelar:
• includes great ingredients
• Skin looked much more radiant
• Did not break me out
• Dropper dispenser simple to use
• No added fragrance

Nackdelar:
• dyrt
• Didn’t produce considerable results
• includes Triethanolamine, a harmful ingredient

Stash worthiness: 4/10

Bottom line: Your results will vary! I was wishing to join the legions of people who like this serum.  Avoid this serum because of the harmful ingredient. There are much much better serums on the market that are less costly as well!

Holika Holika One service Anti-Wrinkle Ampoule

The holographic packaging drew me in!
I’ve been utilizing the Holika Holikda serum for less amount of time compared to the Estee Lauder because I ran out of my night serum earlier – I’ve been utilizing this for about a month.

I stumbled upon this serum at Winners last year for $17 as well as liked exactly how it looked (I assumption subconsciously it reminded me of the Estee Lauder? even though it didn’t click up until I put the 2 bottles side by side).

As mentioned, I utilize this in the mornings as my daytime serum. This product feels rather slick as well as leaves a somewhat oily surface on the skin. It is perfumed as well as smells of faint floral scent which isn’t as well offensive. 
It uses well under makeup as well as assists to keep my skin looking glowy as well as plump during the day.

It’s fascinating to note that the very first component is not water.

Ingredienser:
Gentiana Scabra root Extract, Glycerine, Methyl Gluceth-20, Butylene Glycol, Trehalose, Cetyl Ethylhexanoate, Glycereth-26, Cyglopentasiloxane, PEG/PPG-17/6 copolymer, Dimethicone, Beta-Glucan, Dipropylene Glycol, Portulaca Oleracea Extract, Bis-PEG-18 Methyl Ether Dimethyl Silane, Diethoxyethyl succinate, Euterpe Oleracea Fruit Extract, Ximenia Americana Seed Oil, Carbomer, Polysorbate 20, Palmitoyl Pentapetide-4, Dimethicone / vinyl Dimethicone Crosspolymer, PEG-20 Sorbitan Cocoate, Arginine, Xanthan Gum Crosspolymer, Hydroxyethylcellulose, Acrylates/C10-30 alkyl acrylate crosspolymer, Lauryl Dimethicone / polyglycerin-3 Crosspolymer, Sodium Hyaluronate, Sodium Polyacrylate, Adenosine, Theobroma Cacao Seed Extract, Water, Creatine, Polymethylsilsequioxane, Chlorphenesin, Sodium bicarbonate, Caprylhydroxamic acid, Caprylyl Glycol, Phenoxyethanol, Disodium EDTA, Fragrance.

Gentiana Scabra root Extract is a bitter herb, when ingested, assists with a range of interior organ functions from the liver to kidney to digestion. It has been shown to have skin conditioning as well as soothing properties when used topically.

Compared to the Estee Lauder, I discovered the impacts of this to be even much more subtle as well as temporary. It mainly offered hydration as well as produces a good base – however there was no long long lasting skin improvements. I was delighted that it didn’t cause me to break out or react with my other skincare or foundation (like sphere up or separate). I would state this serum is most likely much better fit to those with drier skin type because of the oilier texture.

Fördelar:
• offered great hydration
• Did not break me out
• Dropper dispenser simple to use
• Inexpensive

Nackdelar:
• Scented
• No visible improvements

Stash worthiness: 6/10

Bottom line: Again, your results may vary. I just didn’t see enhancements to my skin.

Note that Holika Holika has repackaged this with tweaks in the formulation (water is the very first component now as well as it doesn’t even include Gentiana Scabra root Extract at all). The new packaging doesn’t look anything like the Estee Lauder serum anymore:

The new name is ONE service very energy Ampoule Anti wrinkle as well as retails for $28.

Quick comparison of Estee Lauder vs Holika Holika:

• Holika Holika bottle is really glass, while the Estee Lauder one is plastic!  Compared to the Estee Lauder, the Holika Holika bottle feels much more luxurious.

The Holika Holika one shows the expiry on the bottom (Feb 2018) – I did not see an expiry on the Estee Lauder except to suggest 24 month from opening.

• Holika Holika is runnier as well as feels much more oily on the skin
• Estee Lauder takes in quicker into the skin
• Estee Lauder is darker yellow colour compared to Holika Holika
• Estee Lauder has no added fragrance (but is not unscented)
• Holika Holika is much better fit for drier skin types whereas Estee Lauder is great for all skin types
• Estee Lauder is made in USA as well as Holika Holika is made in Korea

Now, I have no concept if Holika Holika was trying to copy Estee Lauder however I did notice that on Estee Lauder’s box as well as stamped on the bottle are the words “US as well as worldwide Patents”. rest assured, the components between the 2 aren’t that similar – at the most, they both include Butylene Glycol as well as Hyaluronic Acid – that’s all.

Both of these serums were just okay for me, as well as neither I would repurchase. in some cases skincare are like that – there’s nothing awful about either of these however my skin just didn’t have an affinity to them.  Has that ever occurred to you with skincare?  Also, tell me, what’s your preferred serum?
