    MitoAURA Prime Pre-LED Serum

    This serum was a pleasant surprise. It feels lightweight going on, yet you can feel its firming effects without any uncomfortable tightness. Within the first few weeks, I noticed that the lines around my lips were significantly less noticeable. The scent is subtle and pleasant.

    I love the concept

    I love that they came out with a serum that you put on before you use your red light. My skin has never looked better I used this every time before my red light session. This serum and the panel are the best combination for your skin. Makes the whole process more complete.

    Did with red light and not sure if I saw a difference

    I took before pictures, used red light every day for 30 days with this and then took after pictures and I honestly can’t tell a difference. Maybe it was doing something but I don’t have acne and I feel like those are the people you can see the most difference with. Also very strong smell…I wasn’t a fan of that. Not being able to use my regular serums either I didn’t love. They need to tell you how to also be able to use other serums and when to put this on and how to layer your typical ones because this isn’t doing everything I need.

    Hi Sarah,

    Based on feedback received throughout beta testing, the scent has since been removed, and the current MitoAURA™ skincare formulas are scent-free. We also appreciate your feedback about providing clearer guidance around incorporating the serum into an established skincare routine.

    Thank you for helping us identify opportunities to make both the product and the overall experience better.

    The step that made the routine click

    This was the one I was most skeptical about and it ended up being my favorite. Light texture, absorbs in about a minute, and no pilling or weird film under the panel. I apply it, give it a minute to sink in, then run my MitoADAPT session. Skin looks more even and noticeably more hydrated than when I was doing red light on bare skin. No irritation at all over the whole beta.

    Bye Bye Pores and Texture

    The very first thing I noticed was texture and that was 8 days of use. Any product that helps pores and especially texture is a win for me. I didn’t even realize it until I applied makeup. Love this serum! Goes on smooth, no scent, absorbs beautifully.

    Serum Just OK

    My results were good so perhaps the serum has a super power but the consistency seemed light. Most serums have a heavier texture to them and while I didn't find it bad, it wasn't great either. I saw complaints on the scent, which I found to be fine. Because it was light, it did absorb well into my skin. It could use just a little more body.

    Red light enhancing serum

    I used the complete MitoAURA skincare system, including the cleanser, pre-LED serum, post-LED moisturizer, and my Mitoredlight panel, five times a week for one month.

    The pre-LED serum was one of my favorite products in the system. It’s very lightweight and fluid, absorbs quickly, and doesn’t leave any tackiness behind. Since you need to let it absorb before beginning a red light session, that fast absorption made the routine easy and convenient. It layered beautifully and felt like the perfect prep step before using the panel.

    Overall, after a month with the entire system, my skin is brighter, more even-toned, and has a healthy glow. It also feels incredibly soft and just looks refreshed and full of life.
