Overview
Fresh is a company that provides skin care, makeup, hair care, soaps, fragrances, body care, and even a special line of products for men. The products are available on Fresh’s website and at other popular retailers such as Sephora and Amazon. The company has been in business since 1991. One popular item from their line is the Fresh Mamaku Night Serum, for use while you are sleeping.

According to the product website, the active ingredients are: Mamaku, Hydro Patches, AVRC (this is the delivery system used to infuse the skin with Vitamins A, C, and E), Borage Seed Oil, Grape Seed Oil, White Tea, Lotus Flower, and Everlasting Wax. These ingredients combined are supposed to help speed up skin cell turnover, form a protective layer over the skin's surface to prevent water loss, provide powerful antioxidants that prevent and repair free radical damage, and help reduce cellular damage.
The Good
- Fresh Mamaku Night Serum is sold both online and in reputable retail stores such as Sephora.
- Clinical trials showed a forty percent increase in hydration in participants in the product’s scientific study.
The Bad
- Fresh Mamaku Night Serum does not contain the most powerful anti-aging ingredients such as Argireline and Matryxl-3000.
- The product is basically an expensive moisturizer at $85.00 for one ounce of product.
- If you are unsatisfied with the product, you can only return it if it was purchased directly from the manufacture’s official product website. You may not be able to get a refund if your Fresh Mamaku Night Serum was purchased elsewhere.
The Bottom Line
Fresh Mamaku Night Serum can not really be taken seriously as an anti-wrinkle treatment. At best, it is a great overnight moisturizer. Fresh Mamaku does not contain the most effective and powerful anti-wrinkle ingredients on the market, which consumers expect in this price range. Although the product claims to encourage the skin’s self-regenerative abilities, there is no available proof that it actually does. It would be better if customer testimonials and before & after photos were provided so that users know what they can expect.
