'Great for my 50+-year-old skin': This anti-aging serum — on sale for $19 — is a dermatologist fave

What is it?

With colder weather just around the corner, now is the time to revamp your skin-care routine in preparation for the dryer months ahead. And if you prefer a low-maintenance regimen, we've got just the addition to your collection: Timeless' Coenzyme Q10 Serum. Formulated with hyaluronic acid, this firming, smoothing, hydrating product has won over Amazon shoppers and YouTube celebs alike, including board-certified dermatologist Andrea Suarez, M.D., (known to millions of fans as Dr. Dray). Even better? It's currently down to just $19 (from $28) at Amazon. Now that's what we call a "face" value!

This inexpensive serum just might end up being how your skin gets its groove back, thanks to restorative ingredients like Q10, Matrixyl 3000 and hyaluronic acid.

Why is it a good deal?

It's not uncommon for a quality face serum to cost upward of $30 these days, and some can even top $100! With that in mind, $19 seems very reasonable to us, especially given that this one has a well-known dermatologist's (unsponsored) endorsement. It also targets multiple skin goals, like reducing fine lines, firming and smoothing, which means you're getting more bang for your buck. And while the cute orange bottle might look small, Dray says you only need a drop or two as "it has really good spread on the skin."

Why do I need this?

We love a good multi-use skin-care product; not only do they cut down on the amount of time it takes to get ready in the morning, they also help prevent dreaded pilling, since you're not slathering on a zillion creams and lotions over one another. And the Timeless Coenzyme Q10 Serum fits the bill.

Its namesake Q10, along with peptide-filled Matrixyl 3000, helps with collagen production, which typically decreases the older we get. This extra boost can have a plumping effect, helping to smooth and firm the skin while minimizing the appearance of fine lines. It also contains hyaluronic acid, a beloved hydrating ingredient that'll help transform dull, dry skin into brighter, more luminous skin.

Applying this triple threat regularly can even help repair the environmental damage bestowed upon our skin day in and day out, while also proactively discouraging future damage. Not today, pollution! And you can rest assured its nine-ingredient formulation is free of parabens, sulfates, dyes and artificial fragrances, in addition to being cruelty-free.

What reviewers say

More than 3,000 Amazon customers (and counting!) are glad they added the Timeless Coenzyme Q10 Serum to their skin-care regimens.

"Great for my 50+ year old skin," raved a happy shopper. "It absorbs quickly and was an easy step to add to my skin-care routine, and it has the benefits of several serums rolled into one. My skin is smooth and remains more moisturized during the day with the addition of this product."

"I love this stuff!" exclaimed another impressed user. "I've used expensive dermatology serums and this stuff is so much better. I've been using it for about a month and have seen significant reductions in fine lines and wrinkles, and I think it's helped with my adult acne. I've been using this one under my eyes, too, and the little wrinkles are not even noticeable anymore and the dark circles are fading."

"I have 64 year old skin, and it now has a softness to it that was not there before," gushed a third rave reviewer. "I feel that my skin is more toned and firm. I will not stop using this!"

As a reminder, it's always a good idea to test a bit of product on a small area of skin before applying it all over, just in case it's not the right match: "This product is super moisturizing. My skin feels great after using it," wrote a final fan. "It hasn’t caused any breakouts for me on my face or neck, but HAS on my chest. It was after a couple of weeks of using it, so I’m thinking it’s more of a pore-clogging issue."
