Anything but ordinary, this water-free formula provides 30% L-Ascorbic acid (a pure form of vitamin C) that remains completely stable thanks to the absence of water. When applied topically, this form of vitamin C has been shown to brighten complexions and defy multiple signs of skin ageing and the addition of very light silicones in this formulation means that it feels super-smooth on the skin. Simply apply at bedtime (you may experience a tingling sensation in the first weeks of use) and wake up to the skin you've been dreaming of.
Want to brighten your skin and defy signs of ageing (we're talking discolouration, fine lines and dark circles) overnight? You need The Ordinary's Vitamin C Suspension 30% in Silicone. In its pure form of L-Ascorbic acid, vitamin C is an effective antioxidant that has been shown to visibly brighten skin and reduce signs of ageing when applied topically. This waterless formula provides skin with a very high concentration (30%) of pure L-Ascorbic acid that remains completely stable due to the absence of water. The addition of very light silicones means that this formulation feels gorgeously smooth on the skin, although a strong (but non-irritating) sensation can be expected during the first 1-2 weeks of use until the skin's tolerance to a high concentration of vitamin C is improved (the formula can be mixed with other creams and serums to reduce this sensation if needed). Ideally applied at night, this fabulous formula works hard while you do the opposite, leaving you with smooth, bright and even skin when morning comes around.
Apply a small amount to face in the AM or the PM (PM preferred). A tingling sensation can be expected after application. If this sensation is too strong, this formula can be diluted on each application with your favourite serum or cream.

Good vit C
I like the texture and I can feel is working on my skin. The only thing I noticed is that it has a mild burning sensation on my skin and I now mix it with my face cream and is working well .Â

Tingling
This really makes my skin tingle and I’m not 100% sure I like the feeling. I  may try blending it down a bit with another moisturiser.Â

Love how affordable the ordinary products are. This works well on my skin. I mix it with another moisturiser and it helps with texture.

Love it!
Does what it says it will and looks great under makeup. If you have sensitive skin you may want to mix it with one of the recommended serums but I love it and am on my 3rd tube :)

Love this product
I adore this silky vit C cream, it has done wonders for my oily skin. It's worth noting that you need to wait a couple of mins before/after using this if you are layering as it can cause other products to pill.

Not for me
Sadly my skin didn’t like this and it stung quite a bit. I not have sensitive skin usually so maybe don’t try if your skin is sensitive. Good price but just not for me
