TIA Review by Marta:
Osmosis Replenish is a good serum at any price and at $40 it is a great one. I find that it visibly smooths the skin and evens skin tone.

One of the key ingredients, astaxanthin is an excellent active and Replenish is one of the few serums to feature it. It is a powerful free radical scavenger and an efficient absorber of specific ultraviolet sunlight rays. One study claims it is 6,000 time more effective than vitamin C.

Replenish packs a powerful antioxidant punch with nothing at all from the Truth In Aging nasties list. A dominant ingredient is phosphatidycholine, which is said to create smoother skin, increase moisture level and support skin regeneration. One of the real superheros in Replenish could well be chlorella vulgaris extract. This algae is loaded with amino acids such as lysine, proline, glycine, and alanine, all of which are the essential building blocks of proteins and constitute each individual collagen unit. Its large amino acid component leads many to believe that it has the ability to restructure and smooth out the surface of the skin, particularly with scarred or aging skin. In some studies, a small concentration of .016% stimulated collagen synthesis and concentrations of .4% strongly increased the density of the epidermal layer.

Osmosis says that this version is suitable for sensitive skins and it has tweaked the original formula adding in ergothioneine, a number of useful botanical extracts and a Matrixyl-like peptide that may stimulate collagen.

I should add that this serum is a helpful wrinkle smoother, but is not especially hydrating and unusually for me, I find I need to layer a moisturizer over the top.

Our Take...

“

Osmosis Replenish is back! This one-time bestseller and TIA community favorite, was reformulated without astaxanthin and some users reported allergic reactions. As a result we decided to stop selling it. But Osmosis has listened to our pleas and has brought back the original formula and we are delighted... ” Read Full Article

I've been using Replenish for five weeks. I also started using La Vie Celeste Exfoliating Cleanser at the same time. I'm not sure if it's the Replenish, the cleanser, or a combination of the two, but my skin has never looked prettier or been happier. At 39, I've never had skin problems, but my skin has never looked so radiant, clear, and bright. And I don't think this product is even supposed to help with all that.

This is a light serum, and one pump is enough for my whole face. It immediately sinks into my skin, plumps my skin, and leaves my skin glowing, which lasts all day. My skin was dry this past winter, but I didn't find this drying at all, though I do use moisturizer afterwards.

My only somewhat negative comment is the strong smell, and I'm not usually one to be bothered by smells. I couldn't place the smell, and the closest I can come to describing it is burnt orange rind. But I'm used to it now and don't mind it.

I love that this has so many good antioxidants to keep my skin looking young and healthy while at the same time making my skin so pretty. I will definitely be buying another bottle when I finish this one.

Replenish is a wonderful light, refreshing antioxident serum that works well with my acne prone skin.

The first few days I used Replenish my skin was a little red right after use. Not red in an irritated inflamed sort of way. More like red, in a flush, blood-is-rushing-to-my-cheeks pretty sort of way. It tingled for a few moments, but did not irritate me at all (and I’ve got sensitive skin!). Within a few days to a week my skin started to look smoother, dewy, and all-around much healthier. And I know it wasn’t in my head, because my boyfriend even commented on it! Everything else in my routine (both skin and food) stayed the same, so I was pretty sure I owed my results to Replenish.

I also noticed the new (old) formula is missing a couple of other ingredients that I wish it had - Superoxide Dismutase & GHK Copper Peptides. It tempts me to try a little DIY and add a couple of things.

Hi, wondering if i can get some advice as im a bit confused. i bought Replenish after reading all its great reviews and great price and intended to use as a serum under moisturizer. But instructions say to lather and rinse off. this confuses me?? it seems to be more like a cleanser that you wash off. do you all keep it on? thanks for your help!

List of ingredients looks good, however this product has alcohol denatured as the 5th ingredient and this type of alcohol is very bad for the skin, especially in this concentration. The Cosmetic Ingredients Dictionary on Paula’s Choice website says : “The alcohols to be concerned about in skin-care products are ethanol, denatured alcohol, ethyl alcohol, methanol, benzyl alcohol, isopropyl, and SD alcohol, which can be extremely drying and irritating to skin, as well as capable of generating free radical damage. (...). When these ingredients are at the top of an ingredient list it is problematic for all skin types, when they are at the end of an ingredient list there isn’t enough concentration present to be considered a problem for skin. Those with oily skin should avoid high amounts of the problematic types of alcohol mentioned above. These types of alcohol show up in numerous products aimed at oily or acne-prone skin. The problem, in addition to alcohol's other detrimental effects, is that it can stimulate nerve endings in the skin, causing inflammation that encourage excess oil production at the base of the pore. (...).”The sources for this opinion are on her site. So I personally would not use this serum.
