Use overnight on clean, dry body skin before moisturizer. Apply a thin layer to the desired treatment area (neck, chest, arms, legs, butt, hips, stomach, etc.), avoiding sensitive or broken skin.
To reduce the chance of irritation, apply once a week to start and gradually increase to a maximum of 4 nights per week, if skin can tolerate it. Diligently protect skin from sun exposure while using any retinoids and AHA’s in your routine, as skin will be more sensitive—using a sunscreen rated SPF 30 or higher is highly recommended.
Conducting a patch test before introducing new products into your routine is highly encouraged. Apply serum onto a clean, quarter-sized area of body skin and wait 24-48 hours to see that no irritation occurs, before applying to the rest of the body normally.
To reduce the chance of irritation, use the “sandwich method.” Apply body moisturizer first and once absorbed, follow up with Software Update, and then seal that in with another layer of moisturizer. This buffers the direct contact of retinol with skin, allowing it to slowly sink in, and helps manage the drying side effects of retinol.

Overall, I found this formula to be very nice! It is thin, lightweight, and easy to apply. It sinks in/dries quickly, so applying body lotion after is no issue. I did notice some improvement in my skin texture overall. I felt the skin on my décolletage and stomach was smoother and softer, but it was hard to determine if there was any change in the appearance of my skin in those areas. I found that I had to use this serum every two days to avoid redness, itchiness, irritation, and peeling. That is typical for me when it comes to retinol products however. I will most likely continue using this product! *This person tested a sample pre-launch.

Love the serum texture as it easily absorbs into the skin and didn't leave a mess on clothes or sheets; over time I saw a noticeable different in my skin tone/elasticity. My skin could not tolerate 7 nights a week it was much better at 3-4. *This person tested a sample pre-launch.

The serum helped even out some of the redness and sun damage on my chest, as well as smoothed out tiny bumps from shaving and KP. It's a nice addition to a physical exfoliation and moisturizing (just don't over do it on the exfoliation.) *This person tested a sample pre-launch.

Easy formula to use! Very silky upon application but does dry a little bit tacky. But it also layers well under lotion so tackiness easily resolved. Did work well to improve overall skin tone and texture but I did struggle with some sensitivity and had to reduce frequency. *This person tested a sample pre-launch.

For me, this is a product that gets better and better with consistency. After my first use my skin felt velvety soft and illuminated. After routine use, areas with taught skin became pearlescent, areas with softer skin became more firm, and my skin tone has become perfectly even. Building this retinol into my routine has given me such a rewarding payoff. Not only do I catch myself admiring my shoulders and décolletage for the first time, but my skin feels like butter which makes applying other body products so much more enjoyable. *This person tested a sample pre-launch.

Overall I liked this formula, but the results really took time to see. I saw slow but steady results in the appearance of my stretch marks using this product. It was a bit tacky and sticky when applied under lotion, but thin and neutral enough that it wasn't too bothersome. *This person tested a sample pre-launch.

This is a fantastic body serum. It's nonsticky and unscented and absorbs within seconds leaving a subtle hydration and glow. This product is very lightweight and would be easy to layer underneath thicker body moisturizers. A little goes a long way and 1-2 pumps was enough to cover my chest, neck, and shoulders. *This person tested a sample pre-launch. Soft Services products were provided as compensation for their honest review.I would recommend this product to: Everyone! Retinol is a superstar ingredient and we should be using it on our bodies as well as our faces! Before this product I was contemplating mixing a tube of tretinoin into body lotion, but this is a much more elegant and effective solution!Deborah Tester

The consistency of the serum is thin and silky and very easy to spread. In the evening, I applied sparingly to my arms, tops of thighs and belly. I noticed no odor at all. After applied, my skin felt soft and lightly moisturized. I noticed no tingling or sensitivity. During the day I am wearing spf 50 on areas I applied the serum. *This person tested a sample pre-launch.

I love this!! It's a very multi functional product, easy to apply and gave my neck especially a really nice boost!! I have a pretty sensitive neck & I didn't experience any irritation which is really nice, same with my other body parts. I often get comments on how soft I am and this product turned it up a notch, hard to imagine but it's true!
