I want to love it
I have been using the Skinceuticals line for years EXCEPT for my light lotion in the warmer months. I’m normal/combo, in the winter I need a light cream, summer light lotion. (I’m just shy of 40 and in perimenopause) I had high hopes for this but it leaves my skin feeling slightly tacky and I’m also breaking out. Nothing in my regime has changed but this. It does feel and smell wonderful gliding on, and if I reduce the amount (1 pump for face avoiding eyes) it’s not enough but anything more is too much even bringing it down my neck. I’ve only been using it for a few weeks and honestly my skin does feel smoother but nothing more. I’m not sure if I’ll be purchasing this again or going back to my old light lotion.

Not impressed
I use other SkinCeuticals products, which I love, so I decided to test this one out. It did not impress me - it was not rich in consistency, it did not feel like it was nourishing my skin and it didn't really take care of pigmentation. It did hydrate the skin somewhat, but i need more hydration than that - so I am going back to SkinCeuticals lipid cream which I love.

A little disappointed
I haven't used the product long enough to truly make a judgment on Whether or not is effective for my skin. I have noticed that My skin doesn't seem to absorb the product as well as I would like, so I end up with residue on my face that sometimes looks dirty. Perhaps I'm applying it incorrectly, but I only combine it with other skin ceutical products, and apply as directed. I haven't used the product long enough to really give a fair rating, so make your own judgment.

A maybe
I have used this Metacell renewal b3 lotion and I can’t say a like them. I forgot my own moisture and I tried this product because my sister has been using them. It wasn’t something that I expected would be. So 3 stars it is and I had skin break out too. I won’t try it again.

Not a Fan
I used this serum for a few months and was not a fan. I didn't see any difference in my skin. I wound up switching to a different product but used what I had left as a neck cream. It did leave my neck really soft.

Disappointed
I planned on adding this to my regimen of SkinCeuticals products, but this is the first one to let me down. Not quite as luxurious feeling as the serums, this felt surprisingly heavy on my face. May be better suited for younger skin with less age-related concerns.

This product is just okay. I prefer products from the obagi skin care line.

Ok but expensive
I’ve bought this twice now. It’s light but sometimes feels greasy. Some other products in this line are much better.

Good start!
Just purchased this product, so it's a bit too soon to see if it delivers, however as all the other Skinceuticals products it seems of very good quality, it has a thick serum consistency, I apply morning and nights, followed by my favorite moisturizers (you definitely need that if you have dry skin) Epionce!!

Moderately Benefit for Retinoid Irritation
Started using the Metacell B3 serum at night following application of a topical retinoid and noticed moderate improvement in skin sensitivity after about one week of regular use. The retinoid previously caused my skin to peel and turn red during warm weather even with religious sunscreen application. With the addition of this B3 serum, the redness disappeared and the peeling improved but didn't entirely go away. For the price, I had hoped for more effects. After finishing this bottle, I will probably try the resveratrol B serum from the same company instead.

Finished first bottle too quickly
I am giving this product a lower rating because of the packaging. The bottle looks nice but the cream is contained in a plastic bag inside the bottle which makes getting the product out difficult, I only used 1 small pea size drop a day and I quickly ran out of the product. Other than the above comments, the product helped moisturize and smooth my skin. I have used skin ceuticals products for several years and I pleased with most of their products.
