I was looking for as pure a matrixyl serum as I could find. Phenoxyethanol preservative was a big no-no for my dry eye disease (as well as some other ingredients). This is one of the rare matrixyl products (or skin care products period), without phenoxyethanol! And it is one of the best rated for effectiveness as well!! I cannot use retinol products (dry eye again) and this helps take the place for anti- wrinkle, aging, collagen concerns! So happy I did my research and found this brilliant product!! Yay, Timeless!!

Smaller pores already
I’ve only been using Matrixyl Synthe’6 for about a week and cannot believe how much better my skin looks. At 52 I don’t have high expectations but was hoping for more even skin tone and maybe less noticeable wrinkles. My skin no longer has dry patches and my pores are smaller. At night I follow this with Timeless argan oil. Very pleased so far.
