Review: I wish I didn’t LOVE this serum as much as I do!!! Makes anyone look like they have “GOOD GENES”! - OMG, I wish I could afford to bathe in Good Genes! It's one of the very few products I've elevated to my "holy grail" list- formulas that actually deliver results and worth their weight in gold. I initially thought Good Genes was ridiculously overpriced for what appeared to be a fairly basic formula: purified lactic acid combined with a handful of skin-brightening botanicals. There's nothing particularly cutting-edge about the ingredients themselves. Lactic acid, lemongrass, aloe, arnica, and licorice have been used in beauty products for centuries. Even Cleopatra reportedly bathed in sour milk as low-tech lactic acid body peel! Good Genes was in my cart for weeks before I finally decided to bite the proverbial skincare bullet and order it. Honestly, I almost wish I hadn't…because I absolutely love it. If SkinCeuticals C E Ferulic has taught me anything, it's that creating a truly exceptional skincare product is about much more than the ingredient list. Percentages, concentrations, formulation, and delivery all matter. While Good Genes seems basic, it outperforms every other leave-on lactic acid treatment I've tried. The results speak for themselves, and that high price is easier to justify. I'm in my mid-40s and had great skin until I turned 40. Seemingly overnight, a lifetime of questionable decisions appeared etched across my face every time I looked in the mirror. Good Genes restored a youthful glow to my very dry, dull, and probably perimenopausal skin almost IMMEDIATELY. That's one of the things I love most about it- you get that instant gratification each time you apply it. Your skin looks brighter, smoother, and more radiant right away, while continued use helps soften fine lines and improve overall texture. My skin is noticeably more even, the fine lines around my eyes are smoother, and even my stubborn "1” wrinkle looks much softer. If you're over 40, haven't yet discovered the magic of lactic acid, and don't want to deal with peels, I highly recommend giving Good Genes a try. It's an easy-to-use, no-rinse treatment that fits seamlessly into almost any skincare routine, whether you're a minimalist or a skincare enthusiast with a 20 step routine. One pump is enough for my entire face, while two pumps cover my face, neck, upper chest, and hands. It layers beautifully under makeup, but also pairs nicely with retinol or other serums at night. I personally prefer using it in the morning, followed by moisturizer and sunscreen. It never pills and plays nicely with every product I've paired it with. My only real complaint is the price. If you can, wait for a sale and stock up. I certainly will. I really hate how much I love this stuff.
Review: Gentle magic radiance in a few drops, GENIUS - I love Good Genes by Sunday Riley! It’s very smooth and combines several actives in one product so it multi-tasks as a gentle exfoliant with lactic acid while also minimizing dark spots with licorice. This serum is also moisturizing, so I most often put on a Hyaluronic acid based serum, let that sink in, then follow with this, followed by a chemical sunscreen then follow that with a physical sunscreen on top. I’ll go through phases where instead of using this in the morning, I’ll apply it at night before layering it with an anti-aging moisturizer. This is very smoothing without making my skin react in any way whatsoever, just a gentle whisking away of dead skin cells that you barely notice because you’re not scrubbing it off or using a harsh toner, so it just washes away gradually with your cleanser! Totally recommend this, especially if you have sensitive skin and breakout when you use physical scrub exfoliants. Note: I did NOT get this from Vine, I ordered it. Though it may have a tag on my review, apparently desertcart is all or nothing. As a member of Vine, even things we buy independent of the program are tagged with the disclaimer, which sort of stinks for these truly authentic reviews on purchases!

## Questions & Answers

**Q: I also use a night serum. Can I use this with it? If so does this product go before or after the night serum**
A: You can absolutely use another serum in conjunction with Good Genes.  We recommend Good Genes first, followed by your night serum.

**Q: I have two questions:  1)  is this a serum or a cream to use day or night?  2)  is it safe to use if you live in a hot sunny place like Florida?**
A: Good Genes is a serum that can be used both day and night.  If using during the day (especially in the sunshine state!) make sure you're finishing your routine with a strong SPF, as lactic acid can increase sun sensitivity.

**Q: Do you apply this with your hand or with a cotton pad?**
A: Finger tips - you’ll waste a ton having it absorb into a cotton round.

**Q: Whats is a good pre cleaner for my face**
A: I like the product but I did not notice much difference in my skin, after the sales person promised me miracles.  lol

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ The one, the only...
*by B***S on May 24, 2026*

Once upon a time, I thought this stuff was crazy expensive... Then I tried it and TOTALLY GOT IT! Super effective yet gentle, very moisturizing, and smells ah-mazing! Also-no, just because another serum has lactic doesn't mean it's "basically the same thing as Good Genes" because it's just not. I will always have a bottle of this serum to hand.
