Editorial analysis
Product and current catalog price
The reviewed SKU is First Care Activating Serum VI 30 ml. The source catalog snapshot lists it at EUR 68.80; price and availability must be rechecked on the live product page before purchase.
Texture and routine role
It is positioned as an early-routine serum after cleansing, not as cleanser, moisturizer or sunscreen. Its value depends on whether the user wants that extra serum step and likes its texture alongside later products.
Comparison and limits
The Concentrated Ginseng Renewing Serum is a same-brand treatment alternative, while the cream and sunscreen cards serve other roles. The comparison does not support buying all four or claiming that First Care improves the efficacy of later skincare.
Verdict
It can be worth considering for a premium-skincare buyer who specifically wants the early-routine texture and accepts the price. It is poor value for a minimalist or budget-led routine when cleanser, moisturizer and sunscreen already meet the user’s needs.
