Product Overview

SkinMedica TNS Essential Serum diminishes wrinkles and rejuvenates skin - it's two anti-aging SkinMedica serums in one.

SkinMedica TNS Essential Serum is a rejuvenating treatment that hydrates and firms to improve the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, uneven tone, large pores and rough texture. This SkinMedica TNS serum contains two treatments, APS Corrective Complex and TNS Recovery Complex, separated into individual chambers. APS Corrective Complex is a blend of antioxidants and peptides that improves the skin's overall appearance. TNS Recovery Complex is a mix of growth factors, matrix proteins and antioxidants that softens fine lines and wrinkles. In clinical studies, patients saw more youthful skin in as little as one month, with best results after three months.

  • Patented TNS helps improve the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, large pores, skin tone and texture
  • Peptides strengthen and support skin
  • Antioxidants neutralize free radicals and protect the complexion
  • Alpha-arbutin brightens dark spots and discoloration
  • Hyaluronic acid hydrates and binds moisture to the skin's surface

Achieve a healthier, more youthful complexion with anti-aging SkinMedica TNS Essential Serum.

This product is packaged with an airless pump dispenser, which uses a vacuum system to dispense the product. Please see this product's directions for further information on airless pumps.

Good

I will say, this product definitely helped slow the progress of more fine lines. That said, I can’t say it helped with existing after using regularly for several years. So depends on what you are in the market for, since it’s quite expensive!!

Amazing ! Amazing ! Amazing!

This is one of the products that I feel immediate difference once applied! I also feel the difference if I stop using. Expensive but so worth it!!

Nice product, but I do think the newer version is better.

Best Ever

I’ve tried others, but once you find what works, you never go back... and I never will. Not cheap, but worth every penny.

Seems effective so far

I started out with the Advanced formula of the TNS Serum, also from SkinMedica. It worked well, but I decided to try this formula when the Advanced ran out. So far, so good. I haven't noticed a big difference between the two products. Overall, my skin seems to appear fresher, and fine lines are less pronounced. So far, not a big reduction in deeper wrinkles and lines around my mouth -- which is what I'd been hoping for.

Keep Coming Back

This is the best all around serum. I've been using it consistently for the past 3 years, but every so often I decide to try something new. However, without fail, after a week or two of using a different serum, I always come back to this one.

Used to love this BUT

I used to love this but this last time I ordered it, it cause a little bit of at rash and irritation. LovelySkin accepted my return for full refund and I purchased a different TNS serum that is working so far. Excellent customer service is the reason for the 5 star rating.

Very Good Product

TNS ESSENTIAL Serum is an excellent product as it has dual chambers giving you double skin benefits. A little goes a long way which helps with the cost of this product. I gave this a 3 as the packaging is very frustrating due to the amount remaining after you receive your last pump. I managed to break the product open with a hammer to see if any was left which shocked me! Opening the innards I was able to obtain at least 6 more days of product using 2times a day. Prior to this I was recycling this product which meant “ money down the drain”!

My favorite anti-aging product!

I love how this combines together and smooths on the skin. I order every month, and I use it morning and night. I put it on underneath my other products. It has made a difference in my fine lines! Highly recommend!

Favorite serum

Although it is expensive, I continue to get comments on my skin so I guess I’ll never stop buying it!

Best product out there

I have been ordering this product from lovely skin after feeling like it wasn’t genuine from Amazon. It is by far the best product out there for anti-aging. Everyone asks me what I use on my skin— a 44 year old who looks 30! I will use this product until my last breath :-)

Nice

Happy with it, although I’m not quite sure how much good it does….especially for the hefty price.

Amazing for skin

I have used TNS off and on for 4 years now. I always go back to this serum. Truly does even skin tone, and diminishes wrinkles. I will be 52 at the end of this month. My skin looks very good according to my skin care providers. I do try to schedule facials...sometimes hydra facials. I do get Dysport or BOTOX every 5 months or so on the forehead. However, when I ask about other procedures I am told no, and not needed. My skincare regime is very important. TNS truly is a serum that holds all in place. Drink your water too!!

Unpleasant Smell

I’ve used both the TNS Essential Serum and the TNS Advanced Serum and I honestly prefer the advanced serum. The essential serum has an unpleasant smell but I honestly didn’t notice a difference in the effectiveness.

It is amazing

This is THE best product ever. Game changer and noticeable results within a month. When I got my friend on it she couldn't believe it. The only thing I wish they would fix is the pump. I always end one with more of the right side.

Jury Still Out

I bought this based on my dermatologist office recommendation. It is very expensive. This comes in a container where you push down and the product comes out in 2 different lotions. You then mix it on your hand and apply. You can't tell when you're going to run out. Not a fan of not being able to see how much is left. I have been using this for 3-4 weeks, and I have seen a slight improvement around my eye and lip wrinkles. Which is great, but would like to see if there is more improvement over the next few weeks.

Reliable TNS serum

My skin does better with this original TNS serum compared to the new Advanced TNS formula. I switched back and my 52 yo skin feels less dry and more plump after only thirty days of use.

Switched back after trying the Advanced+ Serum

I just switched back after using up two bottles of the Advanced+ version of the TNS serum. I think that one may plump a bit more with the newer peptides. But my skin was looking duller and glowing less. I think the Alpha Arbutin in this version was helping my skin a lot and I didn't realize it. Both versions work extremely well. If I discontinue a TNS serum altogether for a few months, I can tell the difference. I look older and more worn out.
