A 70-year-old woman has reported that the Liz Earle Restore and Glow Instant Radiance Serum has transformed her skin, with many people commenting on her youthful appearance. The £32 serum is designed to brighten and smooth the complexion, improve texture, reduce imperfections, and provide long-lasting hydration.
How the Serum Works
As skin ages, cellular renewal slows, leading to a buildup of dead skin cells that scatter light rather than reflecting it. Reduced elasticity and collagen can leave skin looking dull and tired. The Liz Earle serum aims to counteract these effects by enhancing luminosity through a blend of natural ingredients. According to the brand, the formula uses prickly pear to exfoliate, niacinamide to hydrate, and acerola cherry to brighten the skin.
Clinical Results and User Feedback
Liz Earle conducted research involving 105 women, with 85% confirming that within seven days of using the serum, their complexion appeared more luminous. One 65-year-old shopper noted: "It's helped my skin to tighten around the crow's feet area." Another reviewer called it the "Best serum in the world," adding, "Absolutely adore this serum. Makes my skin so soft and glowing."
A 70-year-old customer shared: "I have just bought my second bottle of Instant Radiance Serum even though the first one is still pretty full; I wouldn't want to be without it. It has cleared and brightened my 70 years plus skin beautifully. I do the 4 steps every morning, cleanse, tone, serum and moisturiser- all from the 'glow' range and the results are great, so many people have remarked on how well I look!"
Comparisons and Alternatives
For those seeking alternatives, the EQQUALBERRY Vitamin Illuminating Serum (£21.99 at Boots) also contains niacinamide and acerola, along with arbutin to help reduce dark spots. Additionally, the No7 Menopause Skincare Instant Radiance Serum (£32.95) features an instant cooling applicator and collagen peptide technology to target wrinkles and soothe heated skin.
User Experiences and Consistency
Some users noted the serum's lightweight texture and quick absorption. A 60-year-old customer said: "I adore this serum! It's lightweight and sinks right into my 60 year old skin, giving it a refreshing glow. It's not at all greasy and doesn't 'sit' on the skin, it sinks in leaving it smooth and fresh! My makeup glides on so easily after using this gorgeous serum." However, one reviewer deducted two stars, stating: "I think it takes a long time to absorb into my skin so I no longer use it in the morning and have been applying it at night instead."
Another long-time Liz Earle customer commented: "I've been a Liz Earle fan for nearly 10 years, but over time I drifted away and tried other products. Recently, with changes in my skin (likely due to menopause), my usual skincare just wasn't working anymore – my skin looked dull and congested. I decided to return to Liz Earle and I'm so glad I did! The Restore and Glow Instant Radiance Serum has really made a difference."

The Liz Earle Restore and Glow Instant Radiance Serum is available for £32, and can be used morning or night. It pairs with the brand's Glow Range, which includes a Brightening Cleansing Balm, Exfoliating Tonic, Illuminating Gel Moisturiser, and Radiance Reveal Night Cream.
