So I'm Greek and I want to support Korres since they have natural products that I used alot when I lived in Greece. This serum feels tightening instantly once applied, but Im not sure if that is just a superficial temporary sensation but since the ingredients include copper and copper improves elasticity then I believe it must be working deeper on the skin. There is some shimmer here which I dont appreciate in skin care products that I wanna take seriously, mica is in there and perfume also... For me thats not needed. It has a medicinal almost like patchouli vibe at first which lingers then it becomes sweeter, but this spicy medicinal scent is actually from cyclamen or plum in perfumes. If you want this in a perfume btw Id say Serene Snow by VS (the fir balsam has similar effect) the mist is the closest, and also Rihanna's Rogue, Rogue is more medicinal/heavy, and also To Be Sweet Girl is along the same lines but sweeter, heavier. I read by a doctor's article Dr Zeichner, that copper in supplement form and in this serum which the doctor recommended, is an excellent option to avoid botox since I hate botox and dont wanna have it done, it distorts your features in my opinion esp when these "injectors" are doing it and not doctors. He says that copper offers similar effects to botox and I'd rather avoid this neurotoxin which was designed to help with migraines and other issues. Botulinum toxin, is a neurotoxic protein produced by the bacterium Clostridium botulinum, yes the one found in cattle and in soil. Studies have shown that copper peptide promotes the production of collagen and elastin in your skin. It also acts as an antioxidant and promotes production of glycosaminoglycans (such as hyaluronic acid). That being said Ill keep using this and see how it goes. I already have tight skin at age 32 and dont have any wrinkles (I do skincare since age 13). I do wish to improve my skin's texture though and tighten my undereyes. Read full review

I couldn’t be happier with this set!! Im in awe right now touching my skin and feeling how plump and hydrated (but not sticky or wet which is always a problem thicker day creams) it feels. I’m seriously in love with these products. I originally only intended to purchase golden krocus, but when I saw these together I realized I didn’t really have a moisturizer that I would say is my go-to. I’ve tried Sunday Riley tidal, Philosophy hope in a jar, Lush gorgeous, Kiehls ultra moisturizer, Tlc, tatcha, drunk elephant. Nothing has ever made me stop and appreciate it, it’s just a thing I use! But this moisturizer is so great that I’m now reconsidering even putting foundation on. It’s fantastic. And golden Krocus makes my skin feel smooth but refined, if that makes sense. It’s not like some elixirs that feel sticky or tight, it’s just the perfect amount of firmness. And then following up with the Arcadia day cream is HEAVENLY. I’m going to suggest this to just about everyone I know. I can’t wait to buy again and I’m so excited to finally have a skincare regime that I want to go back to! Thank you! Oh and a side note, the packaging is simple but so elegant. I’m excited to open my little gold bottle in the morning, and the thick amber jar for the day cream is really aesthetically pleasing, too. Read full review

This serum feels tightening instantly once applied, but Im not sure if that is just a superficial temporary sensation but since the ingredients include copper and copper improves elasticity then I believe it must be working deeper on the skin. For the first 15 mins there is a menthol sensation, cooling sensation that of toothpaste or plumping gloss. There is some shimmer here which I dont appreciate in skin care products that I wanna take seriously, mica is in there and perfume also... For me thats not needed.

Some alcohol being in my skin products, in my toner especially, has worked wonders to firm up my skin and make it more smooth as I've seen so abit of alcohol is good in my book.Read full review

It absorbs very quickly and leaves skin smooth and hydrated I also love the smell , very earthy and it does smell like saffron. Korres doesn't use synthetics so I know is the real deal.

I am a huge fan of Korres products. I LOVE this anti-aging, smoothing, lightweight serum. I use on my face, neck and hands. So pleased with results.
