Hado Labo Premium serum- Question...

[ThePurpleOneIsOverrated]

...is it supposed to feel like slightly thickened, sticky water?

Maybe I'm just used to more of a silky, thick serum, which absorbs. This just seems to stay on my skin, feeling sticky, almost like one of those peel off masks.

Is this how it's supposed to be or have I got a dodgy bottle?

I was really excited about trying this, as it's had some great reviews, so am hoping this is how it's supposed to be and I will soon see results. Been using it for a while now and can't say I've seen a difference.

TIA

Yes, it does feel this way on the skin if used alone, but I always put moisturiser or a sunscreen on the top which gets rid of the sticky feeling.

Cutsy, ok, I just assumed that if you could feel it on your skin like that, it wasn't sinking in. Do you rate it?

@ThePurpleOne: Yes, I do rate it, very highly.

Cutesy, what do you like about it? My skin looks really grey and dehydrated atm, so was hoping this would help. I think I was put off it initially because it felt like serums I've tried in the past that really did do nothing. One being Nip and Fab, Dragons Blood. That was rubbish!

Also, do you know if this one contains parabens? I hear different things and obviously the ingredients are in Japanese. It is literally Japanese to me

@ThePurpleOne: If you do a MN search for Hada Labo you get loads of results up discussing its pros and cons. You might find more useful info there rather than just my opinion (plus possible alternatives).

Oooh, I preferred a bottle of this last night. Very excited for it to arrive.
