OMG, I wish I could afford to bathe in Good Genes! It's one of the very few products I've elevated to my "holy grail" list- formulas that actually deliver results and worth their weight in gold. I initially thought Good Genes was ridiculously overpriced for what appeared to be a fairly basic formula: purified lactic acid combined with a handful of skin-brightening botanicals. There's nothing particularly cutting-edge about the ingredients themselves. Lactic acid, lemongrass, aloe, arnica, and licorice have been used in beauty products for centuries. Even Cleopatra reportedly bathed in sour milk as low-tech lactic acid body peel! Good Genes was in my cart for weeks before I finally decided to bite the proverbial skincare bullet and order it. Honestly, I almost wish I hadn't…because I absolutely love it. If SkinCeuticals C E Ferulic has taught me anything, it's that creating a truly exceptional skincare product is about much more than the ingredient list. Percentages, concentrations, formulation, and delivery all matter. While Good Genes seems basic, it outperforms every other leave-on lactic acid treatment I've tried. The results speak for themselves, and that high price is easier to justify. I'm in my mid-40s and had great skin until I turned 40. Seemingly overnight, a lifetime of questionable decisions appeared etched across my face every time I looked in the mirror. Good Genes restored a youthful glow to my very dry, dull, and probably perimenopausal skin almost IMMEDIATELY. That's one of the things I love most about it- you get that instant gratification each time you apply it. Your skin looks brighter, smoother, and more radiant right away, while continued use helps soften fine lines and improve overall texture. My skin is noticeably more even, the fine lines around my eyes are smoother, and even my stubborn "1” wrinkle looks much softer. If you're over 40, haven't yet discovered the magic of lactic acid, and don't want to deal with peels, I highly recommend giving Good Genes a try. It's an easy-to-use, no-rinse treatment that fits seamlessly into almost any skincare routine, whether you're a minimalist or a skincare enthusiast with a 20 step routine. One pump is enough for my entire face, while two pumps cover my face, neck, upper chest, and hands. It layers beautifully under makeup, but also pairs nicely with retinol or other serums at night. I personally prefer using it in the morning, followed by moisturizer and sunscreen. It never pills and plays nicely with every product I've paired it with. My only real complaint is the price. If you can, wait for a sale and stock up. I certainly will. I really hate how much I love this stuff. ... show more

Once upon a time, I thought this stuff was crazy expensive... Then I tried it and TOTALLY GOT IT! Super effective yet gentle, very moisturizing, and smells ah-mazing! Also-no, just because another serum has lactic doesn't mean it's "basically the same thing as Good Genes" because it's just not. I will always have a bottle of this serum to hand. ... show more

    • Glowing skin overnight
Size: 1.7 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
I’ve tried a lot of exfoliating serums, and this one actually lives up to the hype. It makes my skin look smoother, brighter, and more glowy by the next morning without feeling overly harsh. The texture is lightweight and layers well with the rest of my skincare. A little goes a long way, so the bottle lasts awhile. The only downside is the price, but honestly it’s one of the few products I consistently notice a difference with. ... show more

    • After a long career trying out every beauty serum, this is one of my must-haves
Size: 1.7 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
I don't generally consider myself to be a superstitious person, and yet I have bought this (let's be honest:) absurdly expensive exfoliating serum more than a dozen times over the past several years. There's just something about it that makes me feel—nay believe—that a big part of my having much clearer, better-textured skin than I did ten years ago is at least to some extent attributable to this serum. First of all, this just feels very, very good to use. The product is neither heavy/greasy, nor is it overly thin or watery - you can almost feel it sinking into your skin as you apply it. Unlike many chemical exfoliants (glycolic acids have generally been my go-tos), I've never experienced any stinging or even temporary redness after applying this—even in mid-winter, when my face is otherwise dull, flaky, and mercurial. Instead, from time to time I'll feel a not at all unpleasant gentle tingling that ebbs away in seconds. Finally, it has an almost imperceptible pleasant, wholly natural-seeming scent. All in all, as a chronic skincare overspender, I very much believe that this product, moreso than any other I've tried in my endless quest to find the holy grail of facial maintenance, has been *extremely* thoughtfully formulated. For me, the only downside is how almost insultingly expensive this product is; however, it is a beauty serum, not a bottle of ketchup, so hate the game, not the player. Plus, if you use a single pump each day (which is absolutely adequate), a bottle will last long enough to give you time to get over your consternation over how much it cost. Of course, then there's the fresh dismay over how much you'll have to shell out for another bottle... ... show more

The Good Genes by Sunday Riley made my skin noticeably smoother and brighter after just a few uses. It’s lightweight, absorbs quickly, and gives a healthy glow without irritation. A bit pricey, but totally worth it ✨
