Spring is almost here, and our skin has been soaking up the goodness of Dream Night Serum, powered by bio-retinol, seaweed, peptides, and hydrolyzed hyaluronic acid. A few members of our team with a wide range of skin types and age groups were lucky enough to get an early preview of this just-launched formula. The results surprised even us.
Sierra Joyce
20s, Communications Manager
Skin type: Combination and sensitive
The Experience:
“I have sensitive skin, and this was a fantastic retinol alternative. Traditional retinol has always irritated my skin, but this formula worked beautifully without causing any irritation.”
My Nighttime Routine:
After cleansing with my go-to Ocean Cleanser, I applied the Dream Night Serum, followed by Ocean Eyes Serum to visibly brighten and refresh my under-eye area. I then completed my routine with the Dream Night Cream and Advanced Repair Eye Cream for ultimate hydration and rejuvenation. And of course, I finished with the Hyaluronic Lip Booster.
The Results:
“My skin texture felt and looked noticeably smoother. It looked more hydrated, firmer, and radiant. I truly saw a difference—my skin appeared softer and more refreshed, as if I had just drank a gallon of water before bed!”
Leslie Santijanna
30s, Director of Product Development
Skin type: Normal to combination
The Experience:
“I love that I can get the benefits of retinol without actually using retinol. As a new mom, I can’t use retinol, so I appreciate that this serum is potent and delivers real results. I struggle to get enough sleep, and my skin often looks tired. It needs extra care, but I don’t have much self-care time. I love that this bio-retinol serum streamlines my routine by doing the job of several products—it’s just that effective. Also, I’m obsessed with the scent. The lavender and verbena blend smells so good.”
My Nighttime Routine:
“I’m usually busy putting the kids to bed and doing laundry, so my skincare routine is quick. I cleanse with Ocean Cleanser, apply a few drops of Dream Night Serum (I like to apply it when my skin is slightly damp—it absorbs so quickly!), and finish with Dream Night Cream. If I have time, I’ll layer on Dayglow Face Oil and do a quick facial massage to relieve tightness in my temples and jaw. I also love using Vagus Nerve Oil at night.
The Results:
“After using this, I’ve noticed a visible improvement in my fine lines and wrinkles. My skin looks firmer, softer, and smoother, and it feels well-hydrated. Honestly, I see a difference when I forget to use it!”

40s, National Accounts Manager, Spa & Hospitality
Skin type: Normal
The Experience:
“I love the silky feel of this product! After I apply it, my skin feels soft. It dries down quickly and doesn’t leave a tacky feeling. I absolutely cannot tolerate traditional retinol, so I’m grateful that I can use this product day or night with no irritation whatsoever. I have to admit, I’m not typically a lavender girl—I usually prefer unscented or neutral products. But I honestly love this scent! It’s subtle, calming, and not overpowering at all. I’m also a natural girly—from cleaning products to medicine, I try to incorporate more clean, plant-based choices into my lifestyle. I love that this product uses algae-derived bio-retinol, so I feel good about putting it on my skin.”
My Nighttime Routine:
“I live in Las Vegas, where the dry desert air and hard water are constant battles, so moisturization is my top skincare priority. I’m also a full-time working mom with a young child, so my nighttime routine is minimal. My daughter’s bedtime routine is quite extensive—stories, bathtime, and lullabies—so by the time it’s “me-time,” I keep it simple. Right now, I use Ocean Cleansing Milk, Dream Night Serum, Dream Night Cream, and Essential Hydrating Oil.”
The Results:
“My word, my skin feels so soft after using this! It also looks noticeably smoother, and although I don’t wear much makeup, this product makes it even easier to go without it.”
Dawn Stulz
50s, Director of Field Sales & Education
Skin type: Dry, Mature & Sensitive
The Experience:
“I’m completely obsessed with Dream Night Serum. The texture is incredibly silky, and you can feel it on your skin. I’m prone to rosacea and eczema, so I have to be extremely careful with the products I use. This serum did not irritate my skin at all. I’m a total skincare junkie and have tried basically everything under the sun, but I love that this one is so results-driven and uses plant-based bio-retinol.”
My Nighttime Routine:
“I’m a skincare maximalist. I start with a cleansing oil, then follow with Ocean Cleansing Milk. Next, I spritz my face, neck, and décolleté with Sea Minerals Mist, then immediately apply Dream Night Serum and Ocean Eyes Serum. Next, I apply a thick layer of Dream Night Cream and Essential Hydrating Oil. I also use the Solawave 4-in-1 Skincare Wand three to four times a week.”
The Results:
“Overall, after using this, my skin feels softer, hydrated, firmer, and smoother. My lines look softer and visibly reduced. I’m a makeup artist, and while I love makeup, this product makes my skin look so good that I’ve been wearing less foundation. I just feel more confident in my skin. This serum is definitely a permanent staple in my routine!”
