Gives a good glow!
Found this great for glow and it sits well under make up. Really hydrating. I probably wouldn't repurchase as I feel there are better serums out there for a better price.

NEW Moisture Surgeô Active Glow Serum
I really like it, its non aggressive just a beautiful serum, I used it am/pm for a full bottle ( 30 mil). My skin felt smoother , plump, hydrated pores seems to be smaller of it, so i re re-purchased it as its now a favourite of mine. Highly recommended

Arrived as expected tho it's not good for my skin
Pretty happy so far with all Moisture surge products and decided to try the serum. After applying it felt a bit itchy. Regardless i kept using it for 3 days and now i've got rash on my cheeks and nose. Probably a great product, but just not for my skin. Will stick with the 100h cream instead.

Best Serum I have used!!
What a phenomenal product this is, from the 1st time I used this (given a sample sachet in boots at Clinique counter), immediately my skin was glowing and felt refined, hydrated and fresh. My skin stayed like this practically all day! Completely obsessed with this new serum and it will now be incorporated & apart of my daily morning & night routine along with the moisture surge hydro-lotion & moisture surge 100H moisturiser, I have also started using the take the day off cleaning mousse which I love too! 10/10

Sticky residue & Itchy skin
Purchased this with high hopes as I use the moisture surge moisturiser. Unfortunately I noticed that the serum leaves a sticky residue on my skin, which is quite uncomfortable. I thought it could be my skin adjusting to it, but after about a weeks use, I've noticed dry itchy patches of skin appearing on my face. Sadly not for me, will stick to the moisturiser!

Gorgeous serum that really works!
I'm a redhead (well, I was before I went grey) with dry, very sensitive skin, so I have to be really careful what I use, I even react to some Clinique products. I received a sample of this serum with an online order and was also given some more by my local Clinique consultant (she spoils me) and I LOVE IT! The texture is gorgeous, it just sinks straight in and leaves my skin beautifully soft and yes, glowing. I use it at night under Moisture Surge, followed by the Moisture Surge Overnight Mask - a triple whammy that makes my skin look and feel amazing the following morning. I will definitely be buying this product once I've used up all the samples, it's a keeper!

Not as good as expected
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I would give this product about a 3.8 if I could out of 5. I was hoping for it to be like the moisture thirst with a bit more quench based in it being a serum. I found the product a lot more runnier than moisture surge and not that easy to apply sparingly from the pipette. I think if I was buying this I would want it in a thicker consistency to avoid over use and in a better applicator to avoid wastage and use as meant to be. For me I think I will be sticking to moisture surge in the pot format for now.
