Let me tell you a little bit about this product. First Light The Serum is a phytosqualane based 95% active beauty concentrate containing natural actives inspired by the vernix caseosa – the thick, white wax-like substance that coats babies for weeks before they are born. The Serum mimics the intense hydration and skin nourishing and protective properties of the vernix to bring back baby soft skin. Just a few drops will instantly revitalize skin, refresh, and smooth your complexion. You can use it on its own or with a moisturizer for firmer, radiant, toned, and younger looking skin.
Key ingredients in First Light The Serum have been clinically shown to improve skin hydration and reduce TEWL, firm skin and tighten pores, and visibly reduce wrinkles.
To use this product, simply apply 3-5 drops to cleansed skin and gently massage to infuse over entire face. Alternatively, you can mix the droplets into your favorite moisturizer of choice and apply as directed.
Ingredients:
- Squalane (derived from plant sugars)
- C10-30 cholesterol/lanosterol esters
- Olive oil decyl esters (and) squalane
- Lupinus albus (white lupin) seed extract
- Helianthus annus (sunflower) seed oil
- Undaria pinnatifida (wakame) extract

For background, I have oily, acne-prone skin. I do have larger pores in certain areas, such as my cheeks and nose. I don’t suffer from a lot of wrinkles or fine lines but I do notice some around my eye area.
The first thing I noticed about this product was that you really don’t need to use a lot of it at one time! A little bit goes a long way with The Serum. I applied this before my moisturizer all over my face, including the area near my eyes where I have a little bit of fine lines. I used this both in the morning and in the evening. It absorbs quickly into the skin, which I can appreciate because you don’t have to wait long in order to apply the rest of your skincare products, i.e. moisturizer, primer, foundation, etc. I also didn’t find that adding this into my skincare routine in the morning affected my makeup in any way. By that, I mean that it didn’t cause me to become oily faster or my makeup to wear down and breakup.
I must also comment on the packaging. This product feels very luxurious. The bottle has quite a bit of weight to it and is very sleek. I love the applicator as well. You push down on the top and the serum soaks up into the dropper. It makes it easy to count out the drops and dispense a very precise amount of product so you won’t waste anything.
Overall, I’m really enjoying this product, especially now that I am starting to become a little more intrigued by all of the different skincare products that are on the market. I’m actually excited to try out other products that Ceramiracle has in their line.
