This product has the efficiency of a cream with the benefits of a serum. Now my understanding is that this product can almost be used as your lotion or as your serum underneath your cream. The texture is pretty amazing and silky. I use it at night time because I find it is too heavy to use this & the day cream from the line. The scent of the product line is amazing! I mean all Biotherm skincare products smell so fresh, but this one is just that much fresher. I haven't seen any dramatic results with this, but it is more for prevention than it is for instant results. I would say that an oilier skin-type might like that this has a lighter texture, but they might hate the slightly "silky/oily" feeling it leaves behind on the skin. I don't love it as much as I love my Serum-In-Oil but it is still a great product with antioxidant benefits, also great for those who don't want a huge amount of steps in their skincare regime.

Now the cream to me is much more impressive. It does have a surprisingly heavy texture for something meant for 30-40 year olds, but it doesn't feel sticky and heavy on the skin. It has the same every so refreshing scent as the serum-in-cream. The packaging is pretty, I love the colour scheme. I think that I prefer the cream to the serum-in-cream because it doesn't leave a slight "oily" slip that the serum-in-cream tends to leave. It of course does not have as potent ingredients as the serum-in-cream, which is normal for a cream. Part of my hopes that they just come out with a normal serum for the Skin Best franchise, so I can layer it with this cream. 
They do have a night cream in this range, it is called a recovery balm. I totally want to try this, because recovery balm sounds so soothing for night-time use!
