Beauty Review: Farmhouse Fresh's Wine Down Overnight Serum

 

Hello, lovelies! I'm back with another product review. Today, I'm reviewing the Wine Down Overnight Super Antioxidant Recovery Serum by Farmhouse Fresh (definitely a mouthful, lol)! For full transparency, I do have an affiliate code with this brand and do receive a small commission when it is used at no extra cost to the buyer. However, as always, my reviews are based on my honest opinion and are as candid as possible. With that being said, let's get into this review!

Packaging

In my opinion, the packaging is pretty elevated and chic. I love the frosted glass bottle, and I feel that it is heavy enough to feel very luxurious. I do wish that it didn't have a place lid cover, but I can also understand why it is there from a functional perspective. In terms of shipping, I really appreciate that this brand focuses a lot of energy on carbon neutral shipping and responsible, recycled packaging.

Ingredients

Oh boy, this is definitely an aspect of this brand that I am really happy with. Farmhouse Fresh actually owns their own farm where many of their ingredients are organically sourced. This is a brand who values the power of well-sourced, cruelty-free ingredients that are sourced in a sustainable way. They also utilize a zero-waste method in relation to their organic and hydroponic farming of ingredients. In terms of this specific product, it is has a variety of good-for-your-skin ingredients such as resveratrol (potent antioxidants found in red grapes), organic chamomile flower, and EGCG (the active polyphenol in green tea).

Application

Firstly, this is a serum that is meant to be used overnight. At first use, I was somewhat surprised by this product's hue. It comes out of the bottle as a deep, wine red color (hence the name). However, it blends into the skin without leaving any type of colorful cast. The product is liquid in formation, but blends very evenly and smoothly into the skin. After applying it onto the skin, I find that my skin feels softer and hydrated. Additionally, it is lightweight and doesn't leave a sticky residue.

Results

I am a HUGE fan of this product. I truly feel that it has helped my skin feel softer, smoother, and more hydrated. I feel it has helped balance out the tone of my skin, as well (goodbye, dark undereye circles!). I'm continuing to use this product for these benefits, as well as to diminish fine lines and wrinkles over time.

Value

This is the area of most of my reviews where I find I have the most critiques, and this product is no different. While I truly love this product, I find the $58 price tag to be fairly steep. I know that serums tend to be pricey, and that there are certainly more expensive products and brands. I also feel that Farmhouse Fresh puts SO much effort into their products (from ingredients to chemistry, packaging to sustainability ) that it can often warrant the elevated price. That being said, I wish that this was more accessible to all communities, because everyone deserves to be able to afford effective skincare.

Verdict

Price aside, this product and brand are well worth trying out. I didn't mention it earlier, but Farmhouse Fresh also runs a farm where they house and care for rescued farm animals. Many of these animals have been abused or neglected in the past, so I really appreciate that this brand rescues them as well provides quality care and a loving home for them for the remainder of their lives. As a huge fan of animals, this completely warms my heart. You can even enter the code on the bottle of any product that is purchased on their website to see exactly which animal you helped to save! This factor combined with the rich, healing products that Farmhouse Fresh provides make this a brand that is well-worth checking out.
