Looking for Answers about bareMinerals Active Cell Renewal Night Serum?

Put a drop on the main areas of your face (cheeks, forehead, chin, nose). Then, massage the oil into your skin. Follow up with a moisturizer. MAKE SURE TO USE THE PRODUCT IMMEDIATELY AFTER THE GLOW PADS

I would just use this at night before bed. When you're not active, the serum activates. That's how I see it! So just use this at night, a small amount is doable to use all over your face. You will see a difference in a week or less.

Before use, wash your face. I use the Bare Minerals exfoliating cleanser or face cleansing wipes. Dry face completely then apply a small (pearl size) amount of the product to your face. When I apply, I always start at the chin area and massage up, to go against gravity. After the serum, use a light moisturizer. That's all there is to it! Hope this helps you.

There was a brochure in mine. Put a pearl size drop in your palm of your hand and I take my finger and smooth over my face. I even apply it to my neck area and it appears to be more youthful looking. Hope this helps.

First cleanse. Then put the serum on, only a pearl size amount. Next moisturize. And last use the Pure Transformation Night Treatment. Do the serum only at night.

When I went to B.E they told me after I wash my face at night

Serum
Moisturize
Treat (Night treatment or acne treatment powder, which ever is needed)

Hope that helps!

Yes, I have the same issue (dry skin and sensitive) and used this product, and it works GREAT!

Yes!! I am 37 years old and have fought acne my WHOLE LIFE. I have tried just about everything. This stuff is amazing. I switched to BM about a month ago. Foundation, primer, blemish therepy and night serum (day and night) . My skin is transformed!! If I do get a pimple, it is gone in a day, My old red marks are gone and the new ones fade in a few days.
My skin is so soft and smooth. Give it a try. It will be so worth the money.
You will use a very tiny amount. A jar should last 3 months at least.

DONT DO IT... I broke out insanely... not 1 or 2.. more like 10-15 cystic pimples....

I was told by the salesperson that this was a must have and needed to help with my acne scars and skin tone. I personally have not seen any change worthy of the hefty price tag. Two months of usage and no change.

yes defiantly, I too breakout and am 39! i was just finishing putting a review in for this product and I had just mentioned that since I have used the night serum along with the the whole night regimen I have noticed my skin hardly ever breaks out anymore. I even wear this product during the day after I shower and wear it under my makeup, it’s not oily at all and it almost immediately absorbed into your skin.

You shouldn't break out from this. It's a really good product and I was at my local Ulta store and received a sample of this from buying my BE products. After one night, and I'm not exaggerating, I felt as if a year of stress was erased off of my face. I'm 26, I have a two year old, I have combination and sensitive skin and I have to be to work by 4:30am for work three days a week so I can understand how you feel. I have dark circles from depression, stress and work. I'm obese and I've had scoliosis since '97 and I was in middle school at the time having to wear a back brace to school and at night before bed lol. I wasn't very liked in school since Elementary so I've had a lot of stress on me over the years and it has taken a toll on me. So this makeup helps me look decent even when I don't feel like I deserve it. BE has done that for me. It has helped me feel better on the inside.

No! I'm sixteen (almost 17) and I've just started using it, and it works GREAT!

I wish this product had been available for me 20 years ago when I was 26. I could have loved my skin for so much longer. My skin is super sensitive too.

I'm 27 and I use it. It's better to start using skin care early on. Also this serum protects your skin for 24 hours against anti oxidants. The serum is amazing. I wouldn't live without it.

I am 28 and I love this product. It did amazing things for my blotchy, acne-prone skin.

Yes! You would have to ask the boutique in your neighborhood exactly HOW to fit it in to your routine, but I use the exact same products plus the night serum, and it works great.

First Exfoliate. I would also recommend buying and using the Purifying facial cleanser after exfoliating. The put the serum on your face, I also put it on my neck. The size of a pearl is enough, less is more. Then use the Combination skin Moisturizer. And last use the Night treatment. If you use the firming eye treatment and/or Renew and Hydrate eye cream, then apply that after the serum and before the moisturizer.

I would skip moisturizing at night and replace with serum 3 nights a week

Yes! Within one day of using this product, the smaller acne scars on my face disappeared (The bigger ones take a little more time, according to the ladies in the boutique in my neighborhood).

For me, it seems to be working on that. I don't think it will actually eliminate all of the dark color, but red/brown color reduction seems to be where it's headed :). It may also be that this product helps the circulation in the skin around it which brings more blood to the skin surface, and therefore more color to balance the color from the scarring. That's just a theory of mine, so I can rationally explain why this product may work :) Good luck!

While I can't speak to the acne scar reduction, I just wanted to chime in and say that I have medium pigmented skin and any 'event' on my face can leave me with discoloration or varying color spots.
I love the Active Cell Renewal Night Serum - I have found it a great overall cell renewal booster that both diminishes those discolorations or variations as well as reduces puffiness and increases the taught, youthful spring to the skin (and I saw significant enough results with the sample sent to me before Christmas that I went ahead and ordered 2 full sized bottles). The Deluxe sample bottle lasted me longer than the 7 days I believe it is intended for ( I got just past 2 weeks of use out of mine ), though I did apply it to slightly damp skin and used it sparingly which is why it lasted so long. If you apply it to dry skin you'll find you will need to triple the amount used.
And honestly, it simply absorbs better into the skin when it is warm and damp which is probably why it lasted me so long.
I hope that helped some, at least.
Happy BE'ing!

Yes. The serum is good for all skin types. It's a wonderful product. I've been using it for 2 months now and my skin looks amazing. I use the whole skin care line and it has done wonders for my skin!

I have combination skin with a very oily T-zone. This hasn't decreased that (I still have to use an oil control primer before my makeup), but it has not made me break out at all.

You may want to bring the broken bottle into the store to show them. I don't know if they will give you a new one for free, but it's worth a try! Good luck!

I would check with Customer Service for more information. Also try to keep certain products in an area where the floor is soft or at least carpeted. When I'm in the bathroom, I only have a small mat under my feet and then the hard tiling on the floor. I keep my makeup pushed back from the edge of the sink to keep my stuff from falling. My sink is in the middle so I have just a tiny bit of space on the left and right side. You could try your room too if its carpeted. A mirror that you may be able to place on your bed that sits upright (you can place it on a large book, a breakfast in bed tray or a clip board) so that you can sit on your bed and do it. Place your things in a dresser drawer if your items are prone to breaking more often where you have them stored. I keep mine in the dresser to keep my items safe, cool and dry. Don't keep it in the sun or under a hot nightstand lamp. I have a daughter who will be three soon so keeping things safe, as a mom, starts to come second nature. Also, try the Deluxe Expandable Bag. It's a little pricey, but worth it! I have a small bag I received elsewhere by Bare Minerals for at home use and I have a deluxe bag for my arsenal of items.

Unfortunately, you would need to use the eye cream or night treatment, not the serum

I personally use the Active cell renewal night serum around and under my eyes without any problems. That's me. I do have sensitive skin, however it has really taken the crows feet away !

Use both. And the serum is for the face. Firming eye treatment and Renew and Hydrate eye cream is for the eyes. First cleanse, use serum, use both eye treatments, then moisturize, and last use night treatment. Only use serum at night. Enjoy! They are all spectacular products. My skin is radiant from using ALL of these products. I can't wait for the neck cream to come out!

Yes! It works with the night treatment, but the serum does different stuff. Hydrates!

No, I don't think it will be a problem, but you may want to ask your local boutique what their opinion would be.

Yes you can. You can never use to many BE skin care products. They all work for each problem area you have. The serum increases skin's hydration levels, improves skins firmness and elasticity and maximizes cell renewal. The Pure Transformation Night Treatment dramatically reduces the appearance of pore size, give you a more even skin tone, and improves texture and radiance.
