When I first tried Herbal Face Food, I had no idea that six months later I’d be sitting here writing a full breakdown of Serum I, Serum II, and Serum III— because yes, I moved through ALL of them.
And here’s the thing most people don’t know: You don’t layer these serums. You level up through them.
And choosing the right one matters.
So here’s everything I wish someone would’ve told me on day one — potency, results, sensitivity, and which serum to start with if you’re staring at the website thinking, “Why do they look the same but cost more?”
Let’s get into it.
Why Herbal Face Food Got My Attention in the First Place
I’m picky. VERY picky. My skin reacts easily, I deal with redness, and 90% of products irritate me or make me peel. What drew me in:
100% wild plant botanicals
zero chemicals
anti-inflammatory by nature
works for sensitive/reactive skin
helps with firmness, texture, tone
and… I kept seeing REAL results online
I didn’t want a “younger” face — I wanted a healthier one. More alive. More even. More resilient. And honestly? Herbal Face Food delivered..
The Serum System Explained:
(aka why the numbers matter)
This confused me at first, so let me break it down simply:
🧪 Serum I — The Beginner Formula
best for reactive or sensitive skin, first-timers ALWAYS start here, warm, spicy tingle, improves tone + hydration, and calms inflammation.
This is where I started, and within weeks, my skin looked smoother and a little bouncier — not dramatic, just healthier. (Sidenote: I went back to Serum I and my skin likes level 1 the best!)
🧪 Serum II — The Level-Up
deeper botanical activity, brightens, firms, smooths texture, stronger warmth/tingle, great for those wanting to go further.
This is where I noticed REAL movement in tone and firmness. It’s like Serum I but more “active.”
🧪 Serum III — The Strongest Formula
highest potency botanicals, tackles stubborn texture, helps with firmness, clarity, dullness, for advanced concerns or seasoned users only. This one WORKS — but it’s spicy. My skin handled it better than I expected, but it is definitely the one with the most “oomph.”
100% Plants
Anti-Aging
Anti-Bacterial
Anti-Fungal
Anti-Inflammatory
Anti-Microbial
Anti-Viral
Cure X — The Spot Treatment You Add to Anything
Think: texture, dark spots, sun damage, areas you want gone yesterday. It’s concentrated, powerful, and a perfect companion to any of the serums.
How to Choose the Right Serum (Your Simple Guide)
If you're new → start with Serum I
If you want more activity → move to Serum II
If your skin can handle strength → Serum III
If you have stubborn spots → add Cure X
No layering. No mixing. Just one serum at a time, and level up slowly.
My 6-Month Results (Real, Not Filtered)
Here’s what I personally noticed over time: smoother texture, less redness, brighter tone, skin that LOOKS healthier, better hydration, more firmness, more resiliency
My skin looks alive again. That’s the only way I know how to describe it.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ's)
Is Herbal Face Food Serum safe for daily, long-term use?
Yes, it is ideal for daily long-term use. Because the formula contains zero synthetic chemicals, artificial preservatives, or toxic fillers, your skin benefits from continuous, cumulative antioxidant protection and cellular nourishment over months and years.
When should you upgrade from Serum I to Serum II or III?
You should upgrade after completing your first bottle of Serum I or once your skin no longer feels an intense warming reaction. Transitioning up to Serum II and eventually Serum III allows your skin to receive higher concentrations of active botanicals for continued progress. Please note: my skin likes Serum I the best
How long does a 30ml or 50ml bottle of Herbal Face Food Serum last?
A 30ml bottle typically lasts around 30 to 45 days with daily morning and evening use (using 3–5 drops per application). A 50ml bottle provides approximately 60 to 75 days of daily use, making it the most cost-effective size for consistent results.
Does Herbal Face Food help with sagging skin and elasticity over time?
Yes, long-term testing and user results show noticeable improvements in skin tightness, firming, and elasticity after 3 to 6 months of consistent daily use due to high concentrations of natural antioxidants and phytonutrients.
Can you apply makeup or sunscreen over Herbal Face Food serums?
Yes! Allow the serum to fully absorb into your skin for 3 to 5 minutes after application. Once the active plants have penetrated your skin barrier, you can apply your standard daily sunscreen or makeup seamlessly over top.
