I rolled my eyes so hard when this showed up. Another truffle serum? Please. But d’Alba actually did the homework — their clinical data shows a 34% increase in skin luminosity in 2 weeks. That’s not marketing fluff.
The real kicker? It’s a *spray* serum. I’ve never seen a truffle extract delivered this way — and it makes the texture weirdly addictive.
It’s a two-phase spray serum (shake before use). $38 for 100ml. The claim that hooked me: “moisture barrier repair in 7 days.” Bold.
Two-Phase Formula
Oil and water layers — you shake it, it emulsifies, and it sinks in faster than any oil I’ve used.
Spray Nozzle
Fine mist. Not a hose. Covers your whole face in 3 spritzes.
No Residue
Dries down in 10 seconds flat. No sticky film.

Piedmont truffle extract is the headline, but the supporting cast is doing heavy lifting. It’s a hydration stack, not a one-hit wonder. The truffle part? Rich in peptides and amino acids — not just a luxury flex.
- Truffle Extract: Peptides + amino acids for skin repair and glow
- Squalane: Locks moisture without greasiness
- Niacinamide: Brightens and calms redness
- Panthenol: Soothes irritation and strengthens barrier

First spray felt like a cold, silky cloud. No sting. No heavy slip. It’s the texture of water, but with a whisper of oil — my dehydrated combo skin drank it.
Week 2 surprise: my morning redness was *visibly* calmer. I didn’t expect the anti-inflammatory effect to show that fast. Only complaint? The scent is faintly earthy — not floral, not fake. Some might hate it.

My texture looked smoother by week 3. Pores? Same size — but they looked less… angry. The glow is real, but it’s a “good skin day” glow, not a “just got a facial” glow. Don’t expect miracles.

It’s not a holy grail, but it’s a damn good hydrating booster with actual proof. If you want an easy glow step that doesn’t feel like work, this is it.
