I was super excited to try this since it had really good reviews, but after I put it on my face, I noticed that I became VERY red and almost swollen looking!! I have never had an alergic reaction to anything before so this was a huge surprise! I will be returning it for sure~!

I try to incorporate beauty products that are natural &/or organic into my daily routine. I was thirilled to be able to sample this smoothing serum.
The positives: The serum was not too thick or too thin...good consistancy for a serum.
It spread evenly on the skin & felt smooth during application.
One pump can treat the whole face & neck.
Nice packaging.
Goes on slightly sticky but that feeling does disappear.

The negatives: The smell...just too strong for me & it lingers.
Too many ingredients that are not "natural" or "organic".
Does not moisturize whatsoever. My dry skin felt tight after use.
No difference in my skin's appearance.

This product is supposed to "improve the skin's suppleness", but I found that moisturizing creams can supply this benefit. I will continue to use the smoothing serum & ewill only recommend it if I see long term results in my skin's appearance.

This product seemed to be high quality by the packaging that contained it. The scent was pleasant not overpowering. The lotion was absorbed completely, it is non greasy and it felt pleasant and soothing/cooling. The only problem, is that it is supposed to prevent or diminish the signs of aging...the tiny lines that many of us suffer from. Well even tho it had all the other great qualities, it did absolutely nothing at all for the fine lines. so I cant rate this as a high quality product, it doesnt stand up to its claims.

I was all for the fact that it was organic based moisturizer, but honestly it did not do the job my current(Olay Regenerist) does. I liked the scent, for a serum I thought it was on the thicker side, almost like a lotion, but not as thick, which I liked...but the moisturization was lacking...my skin looked duller, and dry, I also had some breakouts as others reported. Personally for the price, I'm content spending almost the same price on my Olay which works. Thanks for the opportunity to try this product, but it's just not worth it in my opinion.

I received The Body Shop Nutriganics Smothing Serum as part of the Product Review Club. At first glance I thought the packaging was very cool...natural looking / organic material. I also liked the one pump applicator. Unfortunately, I do not have many positive things to say about the actual Serum...which is surprising since I have had awesome luck with Body Shop products in the past.

I found the Serum to be very watery and I did not care for the way went onto my skin...like a liquid. It left my skin looking very "dewey". Within the first couple of days of trying the serum my usually clear skin broke out!! Could be coincidence, but somehow I doubt it. This product has a weird...organic...smell to it that I did not enjoy. I did not find it made a difference in the appearance of those fine line and wrinkles.

The price point for this product is ridiculous...I will not pay $25.00 for this Serum...I'm not even sure if I will finish the sample.

In general I would not recommend this product from the Body Shop. However, due to their many other awesome products I will continue to be a frequent shopper...just not for the Nutriganics Smoothing Serum.

Thanks to the Product Review Club for the Nutriganics Smoothing Serum from the Body Shop. When I first got the product I was a little confused on exactly how I was to use it. The packaging didn’t explain what to do or the results I should see (and when). It was more focused on it being all-natural, which is fine but I’d like to know the purpose behind it. If I were shopping in the store I would probably bypass the product simply because of the lack of information.

The product has a very runny texture and you need only a small amount. My skin absorbed it rather quickly, although it left me with the feeling of something sticky on my face. If you don’t put on moisturizer afterwards your skin will be super shinny and dry. I didn’t notice any major changes to my skin – tightness or moisture level. Overall, not a product that I see myself buying or recommending to friends.

I was very excited to be chosen to review this product (Thanks very much ChickAdvisor).
Received the product by UPS very promptly. Have been using the serum both morning and bedtime under usual moisturizers as directed for almost 2 weeks.
It has a very pleasant smell - hint of orange and very subtle licorice (from the fennel). Really enjoyed this as I find many products are too heavy on the fragrance.
My skin is sometimes a bit sensitive, and was happy that there was no reaction or breakout caused by the serum.
It goes on very lightly, although gets a bit sticky as it dries. Stickiness does dissappear.
Have to say though I am disappointed, have seen no change what so ever to skin texture or fine lines, let alone to deeper lines. Claims to reduce signs of aging, but haven't seen any improvement.
Will continue to use regularly and provide an update if I do start to see results.
One other comment on packaging - all the printing is so tiny, both on the box and the bottle. Considering the product is aiming for an older (aging) audience, The Body Shop should print an info sheet that does not require a magnifying glass to read.
So although I love The Body Shop, I wouldn't recommend this product.
