Works, but!

I would say this products brightens the skin in general & somewhat helped improve very dark spots but I can’t get passed how oily it is, it doesn’t absorb very well

Very good

5

I use this with the Ordinary 0.5% retinol and it has helped massively with my red acne scares. Also noticed I have a nice glow (I also use niacinamide and hyalauronic acid and the cerave face wash for reference).

Best Brightening product from the Ordinary

5

This brightened my skin in three weeks. The drastic effects died down after that but It has helped maintain my skin and complexion. Love this product

Hydrating

5

I have been using this serum now for over a year. It really helps to keep my skin nice and hydrated, and (in combination with some other serums) has definitely cleared up my skin and reduced a lot of my hyperpigmentation.

Face brightening

5

My face looks so clear and radiant after using this and it gives me the confidence to go make up free. I've had compliments about my skin since introducing this into my morning routine. I love it, so far so good.

It makes wonders

5

I had been struggling with adult acne and dullness. I also have sensitive skin. My dermatologist suggested I use a topical Vitamin C and this worked wonders!

Great for Dark Marks

5

This is amazing for my skin. I use it every other day at night. Literally 3 drops is more than enough for my face, neck, and hands. Any more than 3 drops and my skin doesn't absorb it and I eventually have to wipe it off. I get a nice glow to my skin after applying it. It feels like an oil (absorbs quickly and smoothly) and smells like a vitamin C packet that you open and put in a glass of water. My face has a subtle but growing glow and my dark marks and post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation are lighter/fading (some of them, including years-old hyperpigmentation marks, are gone). A bottle of this every other night with two full pipette/droppers lasts me about 3 months which is amazing in terms of quantity and price.

Faded my dark spots

Really good serum. Helped with my acne scarring. Tingles initially but really good overall.

Very Oily and cause burning

4

It's feels more heavy or greasy on my oily to combination skin. I noticed that when I apply it directly to my face, it causes redness and burning though my skin is not sensitive. It also has a slight warming sensation when you first put it one, so I would not recommend for oily and sensitive skin. And if you don't fit into two of these categories, I still wouldn't recommend it as after using it for nearly a month I have seen no difference is the brightness of my skin or it's hyperpigmentation.
