    It's... okay. As I've been getting older, I've been looking more into anti-aging and preventative skincare, and this seemed like a really good price point to try. I feel like it leaves my face...

    It seems to help with elasticity and firmness of my skin. But that means that what it does is a general nourishment. It has peptide and hyaluronic acids so that's the nourishment. I don't know...

    I’m not sure Buffet actually does anything for me. But it sinks in as if I’m wearing nothing, has no offensive smell or feel and is affordable so I keep using it. I’ve even bought a second bottle,...

    I'm almost done with the bottle and can't see a difference in my skin. I hoped it would minimize some fine lines, but I might be at the point where I need something stronger. I love being able...

    I have been trying a bunch of The Ordinary, given the good reviews by Paula and the cheap-ish price point. So far, I'm not impressed. Although billed as a 'serum,' I found Buffet to be quite thick...

    I'll keep it short and simple: This serum is unreal. I don't even use it consistently, but everytime I do, it's practically instant results. All it takes is literally 2 applications (day and night)...

    I can’t say this is any kind of miracle product because I don’t use it on its own, I am using other “actives” such as lactic acid, vitamin c, retinol.. I do, however, use it in the morning...

    I used product for several months and saw no changes, other than making my skin a bit more dry. It also didn’t play well with other products, some pilling and tackiness. I’m now using Drunk...

    Love how lightweight this product is. It seems to brighten my skin a bit as well. However, I don't feel like it absorbs well. It seems to leave a film on the skin and it will pill if you rub it or...

    I got good results from this product in 3 ways: it helps hydration, uneven skin pigmentation, and made my skin firm. It moisturizes and softens my skin so it feels great whenever I touch my skin....

    This does nothing for me. It's like putting water on my skin, It dries out and there is no effect. I used it for two weeks to check if maybe it takes longer, but I just feel I'm wasting my time and...

    I use it for the peptides, because it builds collagen and this can help prevent skin aging. I have used it for a couple of weeks now, and it’s not like I have seen spectaculair results already, but...

    I added "Buffet" to my routine about a year ago. It was the missing ingredient for me. I use it AM and PM, as the first layer after cleansing. It gives my skin a dewy feel. Every other product I...
