Skincare enthusiasts are rushing to snap up a premium anti-ageing serum currently on a flash sale, with devoted customers claiming the formula makes them look decades younger. The product, Rodial's Snake Serum 02, is part of the brand's winter sale with significant price reductions available for a limited time only.
The Winter Sale Details
The Rodial winter sale is running now and will conclude on Friday, January 9. During this period, shoppers have the chance to buy the brand's most popular items with discounts of up to 75%. The Snake Serum 02, normally priced at £85, has been reduced to £59, representing a saving of £26. The brand advises that the offer is strictly time-limited, giving customers just over a week to take advantage.
What Is The Snake Serum?
Despite its intriguing name, the serum does not contain actual snake venom. Instead, its formula is inspired by viper venom, aiming to mimic a mild tightening effect on the skin. The key active ingredient is a skin-firming complex of SYN-AKE tripeptides, which work to soften the appearance of expression lines such as crow's feet and laugh lines for a firmer, more lifted look.
The serum is also packed with hydrating hyaluronic acid to plump the skin and features a unique oxygen-delivery system designed to boost vitality. Its hydra-gel texture provides a cooling sensation and it includes a blurring complex to create a smoother texture, which users report is excellent as a base for makeup. The brand states it is suitable for all skin types.
Customer Reviews: Decades of Loyalty
The serum has amassed a loyal following, with some shoppers having used it consistently for well over a decade. One long-term user stated, "This product reduces the wrinkles visibly. I have been using it for 17 years."
Another customer reported dramatic results, saying, "My lines fade away and skin is visibly lifted right away. I look and feel at least 20 years younger." Further praise highlighted its immediate effect, with a user noting, "Really snatches my skin leaving it feeling tight but smooth. Essential under makeup." Another said it had an "instant effect of smoothing my lines", particularly around the eyes and mouth.
However, not every review was overwhelmingly positive. One shopper commented that while it was a nice, non-greasy moisturiser that hydrated the skin, they hadn't noticed a significant difference in fine lines and were unsure it justified the full price tag.
Alternative Options and How to Use
For those hesitant about the price, Rodial offers a mini travel-sized version, currently discounted to £16, which is ideal for trialling the product. The brand recommends using two to three pumps of the serum both morning and evening, massaging it gently into the skin and focusing on areas with expression lines.
Shoppers looking for other peptide-based serums can consider alternatives like the Allies Of Skin Copper Tripeptide serum, now £152 at Debenhams, or the more affordable L'Oréal Paris Revitalift Laser Tripeptide Serum, priced at £31.99 at Boots.
With the sale deadline fast approaching, many existing fans are likely to use the discount as an opportunity to stock up on a product that has been part of their skincare routine for years.
