The Innisfree Youth Enhancing Serum with Black Tea is a fast acting serum that plumps and leaves skin feeling bouncy instantly. This has been saving my dry winter skin and yet is light enough to use when weather gets warmer keeping my skin hydrated, supple, and calm! A great way to infuse anti-aging benefit into my skincare routine. I’ve been using this for a few months now and will share a full review on this.
Black Tea is the stand out hero ingredient. I am seeing more and more skincare brands including this into their formulations. It contains anti-inflammatory properties to reduce infections, blemishes, delay skin aging, and reduce eye puffiness. Plus it resets skin fatigue and creates a protective barrier to keep skin moisturized.

I love the beautiful ombre glass packaging. It’s pretty heavy weighted and has a decent size dropper. I really like the milky texture feel of this serum. It has a mild Black Team scent which I find very comforting. There is added perfume in this incase you have fragrance sensitivities. I don’t really smell the perfume other than the Black Tea.
After I have double cleansed and applied toner or essence, I add about 2 to 3 drops which is enough to cover entire face. This milky serum has a lot of slip and absorbs fairly quickly into skin. Dry areas tend to drink this up faster. It sinks into skin and plumps immediately. It is very moisturizing and does not leave any sticky feel.
When my skin looks tired this serum completely perks it up and has a very calming effect. I like using this as a night time treatment before my moisturizer or worn alone during the morning. Overall, a good antioxidant infused serum to include in my daily routine. If you love an antioxidant rich serum give this one a try.
