tones and smooths [SEP] this is an interesting product as i have not tried a glycolic serum before this this product has a very slight scent that is barely noticeable it comes in an amber glass bottle with a dropper this serum has kind of a toning effect on my skin i am applying a thin layer followed by a moisturizer and can t believe how after just one week my skin feels noticeably smoother much more than if i had just used the moisturizer alone and my face definitely looks brighter last but not least i didn t have to use very much because it spreads well and a little goes a long way
