Review: Deb B - I never review products or companies. I research what I buy and if it works, I figure I got what I paid for. When things don’t work I send them back. I am compelled to review the entire Mad Hippie line of products AND the company( particularly Dana who I dealt with via email). I am not a beauty queen nor am I overly affected by my appearance. My favorite hobbies throughout life include: gardening, horses, biking, hiking, snorkeling, sunbathing and skiing. Outside stuff. I have had sun poisoning three times.I have wrinkles, age spots, dry and flaky spots, and red marks I was told were due to rosacea. I have a large pored, ruddy complexion and am prone to breakouts, blackheads and STILL have dry flaky spots. NOT FAIR! I figured you traded breakouts for dry skin later in life! I am a Mad Hippie, so I loved their name to begin with, it suited me. I have a facial hair problem and spend time plucking EVERYDAY. I have problems with ingrown hairs on my face and neck. I know what you’re thinking, “ winner, winner chicken dinner”. Well the surprise is, there are SOME people who believe I’m attractive( including, on occasion, myself). I still have a certain amount of pride as a woman and don’t leave this house until making sure I look good in my magnifying mirror. On my fifty eighth birthday, I decide to try a “product line “ again. I have used Lancôme, Estée Lauder, and last year Elizabeth Arden. I saw some results, but honestly not enough to justify exorbitant prices. I was very worried about skin cancer because of all of the chemicals. Some improved skin texture, some improved dark spots...but none of them fixed EVERYTHING. I saw the Mad Hippie line advertised somewhere on the internet. I researched it and was thinking, “hmmmm, SOUNDS really good....”So I decided to buy all of their stuff and give it a try. Even though their products are priced well below department store brands, when I ordered them I price shopped on the Mad Hippie site and desertcart. In addition to all of the aforementioned complexion problems, I am also a price shopper. Ha! You can stop reading now, if you want, but you’re going to miss the best part! I wound up buying six of my products in a “ package” put together by the Mad Hippie folks. It was the best deal. The remaining 3 items I bought were from three different distributors on desertcart. ( I might have saved a few dollars, but hey,” a penny saved, a penny earned”, right? My Mad Hippie order came first...I used the cream cleanser and thought,”This is so creamy and easy to rinse, I just KNOW I’m going to break out.” Then I used the Vitamin C serum, waited ten minutes, used moisturizer and then eye cream. At night I switched the vitamin c for the exfoliating serum. The six pack didn’t come with the Vit A serum. The next day I saw a difference. My skin was different...more moist, smaller pores, less redness. No blackheads or breakouts people! Within a WEEK my dark spots faded more than they had after a whole bottle of Prevage serum. I think that one bottle of serum costs the same as ALL of my Mad Hippie products. Who knows what was in it??? Finally my SPF came in from Del Sol inc.( best price on desertcart). I wanted to protect my results from the sun! The bottle had leaked in shipping. This stuff was so thick, I could barely put it on! My face turned a weird color between pink and lilac. Every pore and line was filled with it. Yuck! I wrote an email to Mad Hippie. I explained how I loved everything else, but their sun screen was a nightmare. I heard back almost immediately. Dana explained that it must have been stored improperly because it sounded as if it had separated. I told her I got it through a different supplier. She felt extremes in temperature were the culprit . She asked for my address and said she was sending a new bottle. I was shocked that they were replacing something I bought through someone else! Well, not only did they do THAT but Dana also sent me the mist. She wrote an email and said she wanted to make sure I tried her favorite Mad Hippie product. The sunscreen came with a little yellow tag sealing the dispenser ( unlike the one from Del Sol). It is creamy and blends perfectly into my skin. IT DOES NOT SETTLE INTO WRINKLES AND PORES. IT DOESN’T SMELL! I don’t feel greasy or mask like. I have always hated sunscreens. I never found one like this. My problems are definitely caused by the sun and now that I have found this , I will wear sunscreen religiously. Good move, right? Better late than never.. So here I am 3 weeks after my first experience with Mad Hippie. The cleanser is wonderful- don’t let its creaminess and rinsability fool you. It works. You use the mist right after washing (smells like a bouquet of fresh flowers, THANKS DANA :)and preps your skin for the serum. Vit C serum makes me glow(at 58, that’s something), that’s for daytime. Vit A or exfoliating serum for night. I started with just the Exfoliating serum at night and LOVE it, but am interspersing Vit A serum sometimes. It’s amazing. Follow serum with moisturizer and eye cream. I forgot the Antioxident oil! It got rid of the flakes on my nose( NOTHING EVER DID THAT BEFORE!) I thought I might be in some real trouble there...a flaky patch for YEARS! Overall.. after 3 weeks...My pores are smaller, no blackheads, faded dark spots (age spots), decreased redness, wrinkles less noticeable, dry spots gone AND the facial hair problem is somehow BETTER. Yes, it definitely is. Maybe because of exfoliation...but it’s much easier to deal with. I now wear a great sunscreen that doesn’t have any unpleasant side effects. This company is not only fair, but kind, helpful and giving. They give you support, advice, kindness, truly GREAT customer service AND THE BEST FACE PRODUCTS I have ever used. NATURAL....on top of everything. At more than fair prices. I think they should rename it though....I am no longer Mad.... how about Happy Hippie??? :)
Review: Effective, Gentle, and Clean—My New Go-To Retinol Serum - I’ve tried several retinol products over the years, and Mad Hippie’s Super A Retinol Serum strikes the perfect balance between power and gentleness. It’s packed with not one, but three different retinoids—including hydroxypinacolone retinoate and granactive retinoid—plus bakuchiol, a natural plant-based alternative known for its soothing effects. And the addition of hyaluronic acid and squalane helps offset any dryness or irritation, which I normally get with retinol. I use it every other night after cleansing, and it sinks in quickly without feeling greasy or sticky. I saw noticeable results within 2 weeks: smoother skin texture, reduced redness around my nose, and my fine lines around the eyes looked softer. I didn’t experience flaking or breakouts, which is rare for my sensitive skin. The serum has a subtle herbal scent, but nothing overpowering or artificial. I also love that it comes in a glass bottle with a pump—easy to dispense and travel with. What really sets this apart is the clean ingredients and transparency. It’s vegan, cruelty-free, and free of parabens, synthetic fragrance, and dyes. It feels like skincare I can trust. If you’re looking for a retinol that delivers real results without the harsh side effects, this one’s worth every penny. Great for beginners or those with reactive skin who still want anti-aging benefits.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Essential Serum - Love it!
*by C***A on September 30, 2025*

Love this serum! Great scent, not sticky, and a little goes a long way. Its an essential part of my skin care routine. I alternate between MH Super A and MH Vit C at night for the last 3+ years and my skin is notably better. Soft/smooth texture, my natural skin oil production is balanced, the monthly hormonal ache along my jawline which I struggled with for many years after stopping birth control pills completely cleared up and the red marks all faded fast. At 38 my forehead and eyes are still wrinkle free!
