Creme de Serum from Meaningful Beauty

Nothing beats a good serum. To me, serums are one of the most crucial steps in my skincare routine. Depending on what state my combo skin is in on the combo-dry-oily spectrum, sometimes my serums even double as my moisturizer! So, my essential skincare routine is to cleanse and then apply a serum. After that, I apply a moisturizer or SPF if needed. It is so basic!

I have heard and read great things about Cindy Crawford's Meaningful Beauty line. So, I was very excited with Influenster selected me to try out the Creme de Serum!

Here is the Scoop on Meaningful Beauty's Creme de Serum: (according to Influenster):
The Meaningful Beauty Crème de Serum takes a triple approach to combating the signs of aging with three powerful anti-aging ingredients: superantioxidant melon complex, anti-aging peptides and hyaluronic acid. Combining the power of a serum with the rich, moisturizing effects of a crème, this crème de la crème treatment is designed to help protect, increase hydration and prevent the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.

• Available as part of the Meaningful Beauty New Advanced Anti-Aging System.

• Combines the best properties of a serum (concentration and potency) with the best properties of a cream (rich, moisturizing texture).

• Formulated to help to visibly reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles and leave skin soft and more supple.

I love a good hydrating serum! This Creme de Serum from Meaninful Beauty is right up my alley. It is a hydrating serum that can double as both your moisturizer (if you skin is leaning towards oily) and your primer. I love the silky yet creamy feel of this serum. It almost feels like a creamy primer. It truly is a 2-in-1 serum/moisturizer! It gives your skin that silky/creamy feel that a silicone-based primer gives your skin.

Also, I like the packaging. It is a simple clear tube with a pump. Now ya'll know how much I love a pump as they keep the product so fresh and sanitary! The product inside is swirled and you can see it through the clear tube. I got a deluxe sample size. However, I assume that the full size is packaged in a similar fashion.

How I Use:
I simply apply about a pea sized drop of this serum to my face after cleansing. I find that this is about a 1/2 pumps worth of product. In the mornings, I follow with my facial sunscreen. In the evenings, I follow with a moisturizer if needed. Although, most times, I feel sufficiently hydrated with this serum alone and end up skipping an additional moisturizer. The product has a light scent that I find to be very pleasant.

How My Skin Looks and Feels with This Serum:
This serum works well to hydrate and smooth your skin leaving you feeling soft and looking more plumped. While I am not fighting any major lines nor wrinkles yet, I do find that this serum helps to diminish the appearance of my fine lines around my eyes and mouth area. I am very pleased with my results after just a few weeks of use. Primarily, this serum works to hydrate your skin well and provide your skin with anti-aging preventative nutrition like antioxidants and peptides.

Key Ingredients:
This serum is packed with anti-aging peptides, antioxidants like melon, and the powerhouse moisturizer hyaluronic acid. I find these ingredients and this serum to be very soothing and moisturizing to the skin. No harsh anti-aging ingredients here! Also, I love that this serum is safe to use in pregnancy as many anti-aging products contain ingredients that I can not use in pregnancy.
