If you’re a skincare fan, you’ve likely heard of exosomes. These tiny messenger molecules are known to boost the skin’s natural collagen and elastin production, enhance cell turnover and repair damage. They’re typically used by professionals in clinical facial treatments, often in an advanced serum applied via microneedling.
While the results can be impressive, these salon treatments don’t come cheap; they usually cost between £250-£500 per session, and multiple sessions are often required for optimal results. There are also a few exosome-based skincare products available, but they’re generally found in high-end (and pricey) brands – until now.
High street skincare favourite The INKEY List has just dropped its new Exosome Hydro-Glow Complex serum, retailing at £20 with three million plant-based exosomes in every bottle. It’s been clinically proven to deliver a brighter, smoother, fresher-looking complexion in just 14 days; that ‘just had a facial glow, no appointment necessary’, says The INKEY List – and all for a fraction of the price.

But don’t just take the brand’s word for it; dozens of shoppers have already left ‘glowing’ reviews and impressive before-and-after photos, reports the Mirror.
One said: “You know when you find a product that feels like it’s made specifically for your skin? This magic potion has given me a brighter, even toned, youthful and glowing look. I only started using it a week ago and 3 people have commented on how healthy I look. Don’t sleep on this – add to cart!”
Another customer experienced rapid benefits, sharing: “The texture is incredible, very pleasant on the skin and doesn’t leave any stickiness behind. After the 3 days use, I can already see that my skin became more bright and glowy, and softer to touch. Overall, skin feels very hydrated. Definitely recommend this serum!”

A third satisfied user compared it favourably to a luxury brand: “Make sure to put on when skin is still damp from washing. This combined with my vitamin C serum gives me a glow like I never thought I would have. I can never run out of this product! This is coming from someone who has used a 300 dollar serum for almost two years!”
However, a minor gripe about the packaging was mentioned by some customers, with one explaining: “I really like the product and I feel like I’m already seeing results, but I must have gotten a faulty pump,” adding, “The dispenser gets stuck when I push it down and stays down. So getting any product out is really frustrating.”
Another fab feature of The INKEY List is that they conveniently mark on the packaging when to use this product in your routine – in this case, after cleansing and before any treatment. We’d be tempted to pair it with the brand’s Oat Cleansing Balm, £12, Caffeine Eye Cream, £10, Bio-Active Ceramide Moisturiser, £19, and, in the mornings, Dewy Sunscreen SPF 30, £15. You can also save up to 20% when buying multiple products online.
Vitamin C is another brilliant ingredient to add into your routine if you’re chasing glowing, even skin. Medik8’s C-Tetra Luxe, from £20, is a team favourite, whereas Lumene Nordic-C [VALO] Glow Boost Essence, now £17.45, is a more affordable alternative.
