The Routine That Worked at 35 Is Aging You at 52
A skin researcher explains “friendly fire” - why the acids and actives you added to fight aging quietly became the thing accelerating it, at the exact moment your barrier stopped being able to absorb them.
Your skin used to be predictable.
You knew what it liked. You could use an acid on a Tuesday and be perfectly fine by Wednesday. You had a routine that worked for the better part of two decades and you never had to think about it.
And then, somewhere in your late forties, it turned into a stranger. Stinging at products it had tolerated for twenty years. Flaring for no reason you could name. Dry in a way that no amount of cream seemed to touch, and tight by the afternoon.
Everyone told you the same thing. You’ve become sensitive.
Here’s what nobody told you.
You didn’t become sensitive. Your routine became an assault - because the thing absorbing it changed underneath you.
Two things happened at the same time in your forties, and almost nobody has ever put them side by side. Your skin barrier thinned as estrogen withdrew. And the advice you were following didn’t change a single word.
It wasn’t your skin turning on you.
It wasn’t “just menopause, nothing to be done.”
It certainly wasn’t that you needed something stronger.
You have been running a thirty-year-old’s routine on a fifty-two-year-old’s barrier - and calling the fire that started “sensitivity.”
The Skin You Can No Longer Predict
You are not imagining the change, and you are not the only one. Listen to how precisely women describe the turn:
“I had to totally revamp my skin routine when I went into peri - and then again when I hit menopause.”
“It’s your hormone levels decreasing. Lowered estrogen impacts pretty much everything in our bodies, and one of the first signs is drier skin.”
“It can also cause skin sensitivities, so products can be a lot of trial and error.”
Twice. She had to rebuild her routine twice, and the second time nobody handed her a manual either. And when the rebuilding doesn’t work, it goes here:
“Cetaphil failed me. I used it religiously and it did not stop my skin from cracking and bleeding.”
“It’s like skin care whack-a-mole!”
“Not only did it not bring benefits - it also compromised my facial skin barrier.”
Whack-a-mole is exactly the right word, and it is the tell. Whack-a-mole is what it feels like to keep treating outputs while something upstream keeps producing them.
Here is the detail worth sitting with for a second: most of this doesn’t look like an emergency. There is no rash to photograph. It is faint redness on the cheeks, a bit of flaking, tightness by three in the afternoon, a product that stung this week and didn’t last month. Never bad enough to see anyone about. Never once a day off, either.
Which is precisely why it has been allowed to run for years.
Everything You Added - Because You Were Being Responsible
Look at the order you added these things in. Every single one went on the shelf because you were being diligent. Nobody on this list was being careless.
1 Exfoliating acids - AHAs and BHAs
The first rung. And here is the thing about a chemical exfoliant that is never said in plain English: it works by controlled injury. You dissolve the bonds holding the top layer together, your skin registers an insult and responds by turning over faster. The glow is real. The glow is also, mechanically, part of an inflammatory response.
At 35 that’s an excellent trade. Your barrier absorbed the hit and had it repaired by morning.
2 Vitamin C
Rung two, added because everyone said antioxidants. L-ascorbic acid works at a low pH and a great many women in this bracket simply cannot wear it:
“Vitamin C always peeled my skin like a snake.”
3 Retinol
Rung three. The gold standard, and genuinely effective - a molecule that reaches deep and restarts collagen. It also works partly by irritation, flipping the RAR-β and RAR-γ receptors tied to retinoid inflammation. You were told to push through it.
“My skin normally isn’t sensitive, but afterward I wasn’t able to put anything on my face - not even water.”
4 More steps. Then more steps.
Rung four, and it isn’t one product - it’s the count. Every extra bottle is another set of preservatives, another pH, another chance to react - and no way at all of knowing which one did it.
“Oh my gosh, that’s 11 things!? I’m so overwhelmed!? Don’t know where to start?”
“I have worked in the beauty industry for many years, but this is too much product for your skin.”
5 The barrier cream you bought to fix all of it
Rung five is the apology. Ceramides, the thick tub, the “repair” on the label. And it genuinely helps - for as long as you keep applying it, while the four rungs below it carry on doing exactly what they were doing.
You are mopping the floor with the tap still running. And when the mopping doesn’t work you conclude - as every one of these women did - that the failure is yours.
Not one thing on that ladder was a mistake at 35. Every one of them was added by a woman doing her homework. The homework just stopped matching the skin.
Two Things Happened at Once, and Nobody Connected Them
One: the ground changed
Estrogen is not only a reproductive hormone. It is heavily involved in how much lipid your skin makes, how much water it holds, how thick the dermis is, and how quickly a barrier repairs itself after it has been disturbed.
When it withdraws, all four of those fall - and they fall reasonably quickly. Your barrier gets thinner, drier, slower to recover. The wide, damp firebreak you had at 35 is now narrow and cracked.
Two: the advice didn’t change - it went the other way
And this is the part that should genuinely annoy you. At the exact moment your capacity to absorb an insult collapsed, every article, every counter and every comment section aimed at mature skin started saying the same thing: go stronger.
“I wouldn’t wear this overnight, as I need stronger active ingredients at my age.”
That sentence is the trap in ten words, and she believes it completely. So do most women her age. The logic feels airtight - older skin, bigger problem, stronger product - and it is exactly backwards, because it prices in a barrier she no longer has.
And here’s what the fire actually does to your face
Now the part that turns this from a comfort problem into an aging problem.
Chronic low-grade inflammation is not just uncomfortable. Inflammatory signalling in skin - the NF-κB pathway and the cytokines it releases, TNF-α, IL-6, IL-8 - drives the production of the very enzymes that cut your scaffold apart: MMP-1 (collagenase), MMP-3 and MMP-12 (elastase).
A quietly inflamed face is a face demolishing its own collagen. Every day. Without ever looking inflamed enough for anyone to intervene.
Which means the redness was never the damage. The redness was the receipt. The damage was structural, invisible, and cumulative - and it was being funded, in part, by the routine you adopted to prevent it.
That is friendly fire. Not an outside enemy. Your own side, following orders that were written for a different terrain.
You Didn’t Get “Sensitive.” The Ground Moved Under the Routine.
Read this slowly, because “sensitive” is a word that does something sneaky.
It describes a person, not a situation. It puts the fault inside you - a delicate constitution, a weakness, something you have to work around and apologise for. Half of you have started saying it about yourselves without noticing.
“I’m not bitter, just shaken up.”
“Now I am trying to figure out how to calm the redness and irritation.”
You did not develop a character flaw at 48. Your barrier lost its lipids on a hormonal schedule you did not choose and could not have prevented, while the instructions in your hand stayed frozen at 35 and then told you to escalate.
Any skin, at any age, given a thinned barrier and an escalating stack of controlled injuries, does exactly what yours did. That is not sensitivity. That is arithmetic.
You weren’t too weak for your routine. Your routine was written for skin you no longer have.
Who’s To Blame?
There are two enemies here. Once you can see them, you’ll never shop the same way again.
The smoulder
A fire that produces almost no smoke. Low-grade, chronic, mostly invisible - and continuously converting your own inflammatory signalling into collagen-cutting enzymes. It has no dramatic day. It just takes a little more every day, for years, and its only visible symptom is a face that is slightly red at three in the afternoon.
You cannot fight what you cannot see, and the whole reason this one has run unopposed for a decade is that it never once looked serious enough to name.
The industry that only knows one word
And a category with exactly one answer to every complaint: stronger.
Ask why - it isn’t a conspiracy, it’s a pricing problem. “Stronger” is the only property that justifies a higher number on the box and a higher price under it. “Gentler” reads on a shelf as “weaker,” and weaker doesn’t sell to a woman who is frightened about her face. So the percentages climb, the marketing climbs with them, and the barrier that is supposed to absorb all of it is the one variable nobody re-measured.
They handed a 52-year-old the escalation strategy of a 32-year-old, and when her face objected, sold her a repair cream to put on top of it.
You were never bad at skincare. You were sold escalation, on ground that could no longer carry it.
“So What Do I Actually Do - Give Up on Actives?”
This is where most women land, and it is the wrong exit. Strip everything back to a gentle cleanser and a plain cream and yes, the fire goes out - but so does every single thing that was rebuilding anything. Calm and doing nothing is not a win. It’s a truce with the aging.
So the real question is not “strong or gentle.” It’s this:
Is there an active that rebuilds collagen without lighting a fire to do it - and better, one that puts out the fire on its way past?
Every active you have ever used asked your barrier to pay for the result. The question is whether one exists that pays for itself.
The Active That Brings Its Own Fire Crew
There is a plant molecule called bakuchiol.
Bakuchiol is derived from the babchi or bakuchi plant found in parts of north-east tropical Africa and subtropical Asia at the border of India, China & Africa.
Scientifically known as the Cullen corylifolium, this plant has been used in traditional Chinese & Indian medicine for thousands of years.
Some recent studies suggest that the plant may have cancer fighting & bone loss prevention properties however more research is required.
Bakuchiol has no chemical relationship to retinol whatsoever, but it reaches the same collagen endpoint: it signals your skin to switch its own production of types I, III and IV collagen and elastin back on, at the fibroblast, at gene level.
It gets there without flipping the RAR-β and RAR-γ receptors - the exact receptors tied to retinoid irritation. So it is not one more controlled injury on a barrier that has run out of capacity for them.
But for your specific problem, that is only half the story, and it is the smaller half.
It doesn’t just avoid the fire. It works against it.
Bakuchiol suppresses NF-κB signalling and the inflammatory cytokines that run downstream of it - TNF-α, IL-6, IL-8. Those are the exact messengers driving the MMP production that has been cutting your scaffold apart.
It is also a phenolic terpene, which makes it a genuine antioxidant - capacity retinol lacks entirely - so it neutralises the free-radical activity feeding the same fire.
Every other active asks your barrier to pay for the result. This is the first one that arrives with its own fire crew.
And it isn’t travelling alone
This is the part where the formula stops being a detail and becomes the argument. Regalia doesn’t drop bakuchiol into a neutral base - it carries it inside a stacked anti-inflammatory, barrier-rebuilding system, chosen for exactly the skin this article is about:
- Centella asiatica - madecassoside and asiaticoside, among the best-evidenced botanicals in skincare for barrier repair, wound healing and calming.
- Panthenol (pro-vitamin B5) - reduces water loss and strengthens the barrier that estrogen thinned.
- Dipotassium glycyrrhizate - licorice-derived, a real anti-inflammatory mechanism, not a decorative botanical.
- Allantoin, chamomile (bisabolol, chamazulene), calendula, glycerin - soothing and conditioning, working as one system.
- No fragrance at all. No parfum, no essential oils, no limonene, linalool, lavender or bergamot - the single most common trigger for reactive skin, removed rather than masked.
So the entire bottle is pointed at one job: rebuild the scaffold while putting the fire out, instead of trading one for the other the way your shelf has been doing for a decade.
Why Most Bakuchiol Solutions On The Market Fall Short
“But I’ve heard of bakuchiol - it’s not new, and it did nothing for me”
You’d be half right. The molecule isn’t a secret - but the serum you tried almost certainly cut a corner. Unfortunately, not all bakuchiol is created equal:
-
Wrong dosage. You’ll see all sorts of claims on the internet:
- 2% Bakuchiol
- 1.5% “High Strength” Bakuchiol
- 5% “Pure All-Natural” Bakuchiol
The vast majority of the clinical evidence used 0.5% Bakuchiol - why is everyone megadosing to anything higher than that? It is the same “stronger” reflex that got your barrier into this state, applied to the one molecule that didn’t need it.
-
Wrong part of the plant: Some manufacturers extract from the wrong part of the plant entirely - such as the flower.
Did you know? Bakuchiol is extracted from the seeds, not the petals. So whether the flowers are a vibrant purple or not, it actually has nothing to do with the bakuchiol dosage or strength at all.
-
Fragranced. The one that undoes the entire point. Putting a gentle active in a fragranced base hands the fire back the fuel you just took away from it - and fragrance is the number-one trigger for reactive skin.
-
Careless fillers: Peptides, “plumping” elixirs, and other purple gimmicks that add color and marketing copy - not results.
The Proof - the Head-to-Head, and the Numbers
In a 12-week, double-blind trial (Dhaliwal et al., British Journal of Dermatology, 2019), 0.5% bakuchiol was tested head-to-head against 0.5% retinol. A dermatologist who didn’t know which patient used which graded every face.
Bakuchiol matched retinol on wrinkle reduction (19.0% vs 23.2% - statistically no meaningful difference) and beat it on fading pigmentation (59% vs 44%). And then the number that is really yours:
The retinol group reported significantly more scaling and stinging at every single check-in. Same result on the wrinkle. A fraction of the fire to get it.
That is not a marketing claim about gentleness. That is a blinded trial reporting that one group’s faces were quietly being irritated and the other group’s were not - while both groups got the same rebuild.
Why It Doesn’t Feed the Fire - The Mechanism
This is the part that turns “nice claim” into settled fact. When researchers profiled what each molecule switched on inside skin cells, retinol lit up the RAR-β and RAR-γ receptors - the exact receptors tied to retinoid irritation. Bakuchiol reached the same collagen genes without switching those receptors on at all (Chaudhuri & Bojanowski, 2014).
Which is the whole difference between an active that costs your barrier something and an active that doesn’t.
Two things there matter enormously.
First, this is your skin rebuilding its own collagen - gene-level “upregulation,” the switch flipping back on - not a filler faking plumpness for six hours.
Second, the results climb: more at week 8, most at week 12. It builds and stays - and it does it on a face that is getting calmer over the same twelve weeks rather than more raw.
The Evidence
It's almost too good to be true right?
But bakuchiol is not new - it's been around for centuries. The main reason why it never surfaced is mainly due to technology simply was not good enough at extraction of the molecule.
Bakuchiol itself is not phototoxic but the old, crude extraction methods meant that psoralen and angelicin, phototoxic compounds were present and caused burning and blistering.
This changed with Sytheon Sytenol® A which was able to seperate bakuchiol (the good stuff) from the psoralen and angelicin (the bad stuff). with 99% precision. This finally meant that bakuchiol was safe to use.
Here are some of the studies:
This is just a fraction of the evidence, the rest you can read and find out more from the Regalia Beauty website.
The Bathroom-Shelf Test
Here’s every rung on the ladder, and the two questions that actually matter once you know a quiet fire is cutting your collagen: does it rebuild anything, and what does it cost your barrier to get there? This table isn’t hypothetical to you. It’s your bathroom shelf.
| Solution | Rebuilds collagen? | What it costs your barrier | Verdict |
|---|---|---|---|
| AHA / BHA exfoliants | No - turnover only | A controlled injury, every use | Great at 35. Expensive at 52. |
| Vitamin C (L-ascorbic) | Supports it | Low pH, frequent stinging & peeling | Right idea, often unwearable |
| Retinol / tretinoin | Yes | Irritation is part of the mechanism | Rebuilds while feeding the fire |
| More steps, more products | No | More triggers, no way to identify them | Whack-a-mole |
| Barrier repair creams | No | Nothing - and it does help | Mopping, tap still running |
| REGALIA | Yes - gene-level, no RAR route | Nothing - it calms while it builds | The rebuild that turns the tap off |
So the real question was never “does this work.” The blinded research already answered that.
The real question is who built it, whether it holds up on real women’s faces, and how to get it.
The Regalia Difference
This is why I partnered with Regalia Beauty.
Regalia sources their Bakuchiol exactly from the same source that was used in the clinical trials - Sytheon Sytenol® A.
What's important here is that we are matching the clinical evidence to application:
I see 5%, 10%, "high strength" variants all over but NONE of the evidence and clinical research ever used any strength higher than 1% and in fact a majority of the trials only used 0.5%.
But I get it - in a fast paced world, everyone also expects fast paced results so "more is better" but this is simply not true. "Stronger" is the exact reflex that got your barrier into this state - and it is the last thing you should be applying to the one molecule that never needed it.
Introducing Regalia Beauty
Regalia's Bakuchiol Serum is a once-or-twice-daily serum built for the one thing your shelf has never managed: rebuilding collagen on a barrier that can no longer pay for it.
It signals your skin to switch its own collagen production back on (types I, III and IV) while suppressing the NF-κB signalling that has been quietly cutting it apart, carried in a soothing, barrier-repairing system that rebuilds what a decade of harsh actives stripped. Fragrance-free, lightweight, and gentle enough for morning and night.
What’s actually in the bottle
- The correct & only source - Sytheon Sytenol® A - the exact source that was used in the breakthrough clinical trials.
- Clinically-studied 0.5% bakuchiol - the exact strength used in the head-to-head trials, nothing less, nothing more. Precise.
- Rebuilds without a controlled injury - signals your skin to restart its own collagen (I, III & IV) at gene level, with no RAR route and no “push through it” phase.
- Puts the fire out while it works - suppresses NF-κB, TNF-α, IL-6 and IL-8, and neutralizes free radicals, shutting down the enzymes that demolish collagen.
The Barrier-Repair Matrix
For your skin, this is not the supporting cast. This is half the reason it works.
- Glycerin - the strongest, best-studied humectant in skincare. Decades of robust evidence for hydration, barrier repair and improved skin function - working at multiple depths, not just the surface.
- Sodium Hyaluronate - strong evidence for topical hydration and visible plumpness. Effects are largely surface-level and temporary, and depend heavily on molecular weight.
- Panthenol (pro-vitamin B5) - consistent evidence for reducing water loss, strengthening the barrier, soothing and supporting healing.
- Centella Asiatica Extract - strong clinical evidence. Madecassoside & asiaticoside support wound healing, collagen synthesis and barrier repair, with antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects. One of the best-supported botanicals in skincare.
- Allantoin - strong evidence for soothing, conditioning and promoting healing. Widely used and reasonably supported.
- Dipotassium Glycyrrhizate (licorice-derived) - strong evidence as an anti-inflammatory, soothing agent with a real mechanism with glycyrrhetinic.
- Chamomilla Recutita (Chamomile) Extract - evidence for anti-inflammatory, soothing effects via bisabolol, chamazulene.
- Calendula Officinalis Extract - traditionally used for soothing the repairing the barrier and treatment of symptoms such as radiation dermatitis.
The Combination
- A calming, barrier-repairing matrix - centella, panthenol, allantoin, licorice root, chamomile and glycerin working as one system focused on 1 thing only: restoration.
- Nothing in the bottle fights you. No acid, no low pH, no fragrance, no tolerance-building phase, no week of peeling that you are told to be grateful for.
- Fragrance-free. No grit, no purple residue, no piling, no pillow stains. Sinks in light and disappears.
- Morning and night - unlike retinol, it won’t make your skin sun-sensitive. (Still wear your SPF.)
- For every neck, chest, hand and jawline that’s been quietly giving your age away - yes, you can use it there too.
- Plant-based & cruelty-free.
12 Weeks - Just Like The Studies
There is no magical elixir or shortcut. That being said, if you reverse-engineer the clinical evidence directly and map out the exact process that was used in the trials, you have a 12 week journey.
This is not a filler that dazzles on day one and quits by lunch. It’s a rebuild, and rebuilds are cumulative - they climb week over week. And unlike every other active you have run a twelve-week course on, your face gets calmer over those twelve weeks rather than more raw.
Regalia Beauty did an excellent job with this serum with the soothing formulations such as centella asiatica extract - which for a perimenopausal barrier is not a nice-to-have. It is the difference between a course you finish and a course you abandon in week three.
Week ~2:
The first glow. Skin looks calmer, more hydrated and plumper - surface-level changes you can see in the mirror.
Week ~8:
Texture and tone begin to even out. Roughness smooths over and dark spots start softening.
Week ~12:
The structural payoff. Skin is visibly firmer and smoother, with lines softened - this is where results peak.
Here's What Annette, 52, Says About Her Experience With Regalia
I rebuilt my whole routine twice. Once when peri started and again at menopause, and both times I was basically guessing, because nobody hands you a manual for what your face does next.
My mistake - and I'd like other women to not make it - was that I went harder. I genuinely believed older skin needed stronger ingredients. So I had the acid, the vitamin C, the retinol and about four other things, and I was constantly putting out small fires: red on Monday, flaking Thursday, some new patch on the weekend. Skincare whack-a-mole. Then I'd buy a big tub of barrier cream to fix what I'd just done to myself and start the week again.
What actually changed my mind was reading that the redness wasn't the damage, it was the receipt - that the quiet inflammation was eating collagen the entire time. I'd been treating it as a comfort problem for about eight years.
I stripped it back to four steps and this serum is the only active in it. Twelve weeks: my face is no longer red at 4pm, and the fine lines around my mouth have genuinely softened. Both at once, which I had truly come to believe was not on the menu at my age.
And This Is What Samantha, 53, Comments
I'm the woman in the comments asking “what percentage?” I've watched influencers swap endorsements the moment a sponsorship ends. I know most serums sit on the surface doing an expensive impression of moisturizer. So when Regalia Beauty kept appearing in my feed, my first reaction was: absolutely not. My deeper fear, if I'm honest, wasn't wasting the money. It was being made a fool of. Being "influenced".
What got me was that their page agreed with me. It opened by admitting most serums don't penetrate - then explained the mechanism, the concentration, and what it wouldn't do. Nobody promising me my twenties back.
So I ran my own trial. One hand, every night, 3 weeks, photos under the same bathroom light.
The hand I ran this Regalia bakuchiol serum is visibly smoother. It goes on after cleansing, before anything else, and I resent how much I like it. Not a miracle worker. Just the first product I've ever finished a bottle of on purpose.
Regalia Is On To Something Here
I will always be the first to admit when something isn't working but to be quite frank - Regalia Beauty has really impressed me. There are dozens of women who have hailed success and I honestly believe them.
The evidence is there and there really isn't much else to add. I think they've done an excellent job once again formulating a truly gentle formulation and bakuchiol, really is something else. It's a too good to be true story - that's actually true.
Nobody warned me that menopause would make my own face unfamiliar. Forty years of knowing my skin, and then estrogen left and took the instruction manual with it haha. Thinner. Drier. Crepey in places I'd never thought about. I bought every rich cream on the shelf and they all did the same trick - plumped me up like a water balloon but only for a few hours. Hydration wasn't the problem. Structure was. Nothing I owned was actually rebuilding anything, and nothing on the market seemed made for the skin I have now, as opposed to the skin the 25-year-old me had.
Then I came across Regalia's new serum.
I used it morning and night - face, neck, the backs of my hands, décolletage - with my heavier cream layered over the top because my skin likes a little richness these days. Around month three, my husband asked if I'd done something different. I told him "wouldn't you like to know!" but truthfully? - I was glad he noticed. I'd just started looking like myself again.
Look, I'm 50. My routine is sunscreen, moisturizer, and drinking enough water to water my garden. I don't do fourteen steps (but maybe I should). Every “life-changing” serum I've bought has ended up in the drawer of shame next to the jade roller, so when my sister pushed Regalia Beauty on me, my expectations were somewhere below sea level.
Here's the thing, because I know you want it. Regalia earned the one open slot in my routine for boring, practical reasons: absorbs in seconds, no film, no gunking when I layer sunscreen over it. I have a silk pillowcase and I don't feel any piling or greasiness. I use it morning and night, and I'm quite generous with the lather over my face & neck. That's it.
Results? I'm still 50. The forehead lines still show up. But my skin is genuinely smoother, less “tired tea towel,” and my daughter asked me if I had changed anything with my diet.
So it didn't transform my life but it just does its one job, every day, without drama - which, at this age, is the most romantic thing a product has ever done for me.
Everything Your Face Has Been Put Through. In Writing, as a Promise.

Can anybody vouch for this?
Hey… It’s fantastic! I’d honestly given up on actives entirely-everything I tried since menopause left my face red and flaking, so I’d stripped back to nothing and just accepted the aging. Regalia has completely changed that. My skin is calmer than it’s been in a decade AND the lines have softened, which I didn’t think you were allowed to have both of. Hopefully, it will help you too.
I bought mine at full price, and now there’s a 40% off? That's not fair!
How long does shipping take??
Hey Amelia, got mine after a week.
I bought this serum for my wife, who’d sworn off every active she owned - menopause seemed to turn her whole bathroom shelf against her overnight. She’s been feeling defeated about it for months. In just a couple of weeks, her skin is noticeably calmer, and she actually enjoys her routine again instead of bracing for it. Just happy for her sake.
Hey, this serum is what you need instead of expensive treatments.
Wow, this looks amazing! I’ve just ordered a bottle now!
Did you buy it? How long does it take to get it?
For me, it was 5 business days.
I should have bought it earlier. It’s so nice to finally have something gentle in Regalia actually working on my skin. I use it every morning and night, and it’s made a huge difference-my cheeks look plumper and my fine lines have visibly softened.
Wow, looks amazing. Does anyone actually have some and has it been tested?
The serum is really light and easy to apply, and I love how gentle it is on my skin. The bakuchiol in Regalia works wonders, especially on my neck and the backs of my hands-no stinging, no flaking, my neck line looks fresher and firmer. 😇 🔥
I just ordered mine! Cannot wait for it.
I need this, I’m gonna buy some this weekend when my paycheck hits lol!!
Does anyone know how long the shipping takes? Want to buy some for my friend.
Hey Margaret, mine arrived after about a week.
Your friend will be happy!
The serum is really light, so you can wear it day and night, even under makeup. Cheaper than clinic treatments, and does exactly what it says. It’s a great product with fast shipping!
Love this serum totally!
I was a skeptic... but I bought a bottle and was positively surprised. This is worth it. I’ve been struggling with sagging and dull, crepey skin for a while, and it was starting to affect my confidence. Regalia helped me out a lot. My skin looks so much firmer and smoother now. Thank you to the company who made this.
I absolutely love my Regalia serum! I had to order another bottle for my daughter today since she won’t stop using mine!
OMG, I know! I was so happy they still had some in stock today. I had to order a bottle immediately before they run out again like last time.
