Advanced Vitamin C 20% Serum With Ferulic, Hyaluronic Acid 1 oz

I used this for my face for about a month and found it worked so well. I made my face brighter, more even tone and less visible of my dark spots (about 98%). The only minor thing is that its smell is just acceptable and I wish the manufacturer would make the smell a little better. I am sure people will be willing to pay a little bit more for better smell since this product is so great.

Pretty happy with this! Really soaks into the skin nicely. I will update with pictures of my skin shortly. This is the best bang for your buck! 100% recommend.

This product is a great value for the money. It has the same active ingredients as a brand sold at dermatologist's office and high-end spas that sell for $166 an ounce!! (what?!?) It arrived quickly and the product was not discolored. You need to be careful with Vitamin C serums because they tend to be unstable and oxidize kind of quickly and/or when the product is improperly stored or the formulas are not stable. This product was clear in color on arrival and that's a sign of freshness.One thing to be aware of is that it...stinks. Like boiled hot dogs.But ALL vitamin C serums that have Ferulic Acid smell like that. Even the one that's $166If you are sensitive to smells, this may not work for you.Another thing, formulas with Ferulic are usually recommended for people with dry or normal skin. The product has a slight texture to it that can feel comfortable to those with dry skin and annoying to those with oily skin.The feeling is not oily, but it's there.If you want a Vitamin C serum that leaves no texture behind or feels like water, try a formula *without* Ferulic.Overall I am very happy with my purchase. It was exactly what I was expecting after trying a sample of the high-end brand but having it be out of my budget.I will update in a couple of months with results.

Love this product! It is easily absorbed and the benefits of it show shortly after starting to use it. I also use the Hydrating B5 gel product this company makes in conjunction with this product. I use both twice a day with a good moisturizer and I have seen a great improvement in the texture of my skin, the tightness of my skin and also a big reduction in minor wrinkles around the mouth area. I usually use SkinCeuticals but this brand is just as good and a lot cheaper.

The texture is excessively liquid. It arrived rusty and smells terrible.

This serum is awesome! I always look forward to using it every morning. I have extremely oily skin and dermatitis. I use it under my Equate Oil-free Ultra-Gentle Facial Moisturizer and/or Skinceutical Advanced Pigment Corrector in the morning. I have been using it for almost four weeks and my skin glows and almost looks flawless. I would definitely recommend this serum to my friends and family.

I've been using this product daily for almost 2 weeks and I love the way it makes my skin glow. It has brightened it some but I still have some light brown patches from years of the Florida sun, but I'm hoping with continued use, those will fade. It does have a slight odor. To me its a subtle odor; not harsh as some have posted. It goes on a little sticky and stays tacky on the face for a good while so I would not suggest applying it just before preparing to apply make up - otherwise all your powders will not go on smoothly and will look blotchy. Give it a good hour before applying or put it on at night time; before bed. It states to keep it in a dark area so I keep mine in the refrigerator (still in its box)! When I apply it after a nice warm shower and exfoliating my face, the cool temp feels so soothing!

I typically buy Skinceuticals C E Ferulic Serum. It costs $166.00 or more. This is exactly the same item as far as I can tell. It acts the same, it feels the same. If the formula is different than the more expensive brands, I can't tell. It's hard for me to make a comments on results, because my regimen uses a few products together. I'm mid 50's and I use the following regimen:Morning - cleanse, 3-4 drops of Vitamin C serum under sunscreen moisturizer.Night - prescription Retin A, followed by a liped moisturizer (I buy Eau Thermale Avène Xeracalm A.D Lipid-Replenishing Cream, 6.76 fl. oz. - from Amazon) It's the same ingredients in the very expensive Skinceuticals version.
