Say Yes to Blueberries serum: How can a product give you a glow overnight?

Say Yes to Blueberries Intensive Skin Repair serum

I came across a review for this serum on a beauty blog and the blogger, who reviews products all the time, said this product pleasantly surprised her and gave her a "glow" overnight. Her review was very credible but I honestly thought, how can a product possibly do that? I forgot about the review until I saw this product at my local Walgreen's and decided to try it as I was looking for a reasonably-priced ($19.99)antioxidant serum to go along with the oils I have been using. Even though I find it hard to define the word 'glow' exactly, my skin did indeed look differently when I woke up. My skin had a bit more color and a certain brightness and freshness to it...just so hard to define. There was no irritation whatsover that could account for the added color; in fact, the serum was very mild going on. I just don't get it....

I am a fair, Irish girl so any glow is ALWAYS appreciated and I will continue to use this product as my results have only gotten better each day that I have used it. I noticed a difference the first morning, my husband made an unsolicited comment the next morning...he used the term "livelier". lol

So, does anyone know how this product could deliver results like I have described overnight? (oh, and it does NOT smell like blueberries nor is it blue in color, in case anyone was wondering! Just a nice light, clear serum that dries quickly and allows me to apply my oils soon after).
