Slowing down the aging process and maintaining the firmness and elasticity of facial skin is the cherished desire of many modern people. In the vastness of the beauty market there is an incredible amount of ‘elixirs of youth’ for eliminating wrinkles. When making a choice, it is always better to trust proven professionals.
The Ordinary EUK 134 0.1% is a serum with Manganese Chloride, the formula of which was developed by specialists from the Canadian brand The Ordinary. It is based on one of the strongest and most effective antioxidants such as EUK 134. The principle of action of the product: Manganese Chloride creates a self-healing molecule that combats free radicals and provides round-the-clock antioxidant action, and also has absorbent properties, which ensures effective cleansing of the skin due to the combination of all oxides with manganese molecules. The serum can be used as a stand-alone skincare product, or mixed with other cosmetic products to increase their effectiveness.

Apply alone or after water-based serums, before oils or creams. Can be mixed with other serums to significantly enhance their antioxidant effects. Do not use with strongly acidic preparations such as ascorbic acid suspensions.

My rating is absolutely terrible. I experienced a Quincke edema reaction after using this serum. Thankfully, the emergency doctors arrived quickly and acted efficiently. Overall, I do not recommend it (((
I mix this serum with a balancing blend of oils and microalgae in a 1:1 ratio every other night. I have combination skin with open pores in the T-zone, lots of freckles, and pigmented spots. The skin tone evens out, it doesn't get as oily during the day, which is definitely a plus. The pores haven't become smaller, but they are less noticeable due to the evened out tone.
I am 27 years old and I have dry skin. This serum is a great find, I debated whether to buy it or not for a long time, but I made the right decision. The texture of the serum is oily. I apply it in the morning and after applying, I seal it with my daytime moisturizer. After a week, my face started glowing with a natural light, it became sufficiently hydrated and the tone became more even. For those who suffer from peeling or dryness, I highly recommend this product.
The serum is easy to apply, spreads quickly, and has a characteristic greasy feeling without any residual stickiness. I bought it to use under my morning moisturizer because the serum also has the additional benefit of sun protection. However, I found it too heavy for my liking in the morning, leaving a sensation that there is still something on my skin, which is especially uncomfortable during the summer. As a result, I introduced it into my nighttime routine. I mix 2 drops of EUK with 2-3 drops of The Ordinary Niacinamide 10% + Zinc 1% (which I can't imagine my skincare routine without). I apply it to my face, wait a few seconds for it to absorb, and then seal it with my nighttime moisturizer. I haven't been using it for long, so expecting instant effects from the antioxidant would be foolish, but overall my skin looks better, with a more even tone and a fresher appearance. Dry patches have disappeared and my complexion has evened out. I will try using it in my morning routine during the winter.
