This is the new packaging/name of Deep Sea Droplet Serum and my review is for both. I read about this serum on SkinSort.com as gentle for sensitive skin yet beneficial for anti-aging with mushroom extract for dark spots and peptides. I use it in the morning and it helps with anti-redness. Instead of Hyaluronic Acid it has glycerin which adds moisture to the skin. Great value and is anti fungal Show more

Great hydrating serum without hyaluronic acid or niacinamide. Works perfectly when skin barrier is compromised and actives are too much. On the other hand, I live in a dry climate and find when I do use products with hyaluronic acid this really helps provide the moisture needed.
