Description

This formula combines two of the most powerful brightening agents in skincare: pure Vitamin C and Alpha Arbutin, both solubilized in a completely water-free formula for ideal stability. Vitamin C is an effective antioxidant that brightens the skin tone and reduces signs of aging. Alpha Arbutin is a highly- purified biosynthetic active ingredient that reduces the look of dark spots and uneven skin tone. Notes: Vitamin C and Alpha Arbutin are less stable in formulations that contain water and use of them combined in formulations containing water is highly discouraged. This formulation is a water-free, stable solution, and may feel slightly "oily" for a few seconds after application, despite the fact that it is completely free of oil.

  • good for healing skin problems
I'm not a real believer in all these acids that the cosmetic companies sell. This product is only Vitamin C and it works well for me after I take off my make up at night. I feel its the best product for skin damage. Does not fade dark spots though.

  • Great product
I have noticed a significant difference using this on my face. This is the second bottle I've purchased and I love it.

  • It does work BUT...
I would love to use it everyday two times a day but it smells horrific. It does work, but because of the smell I have to wear it only at night. The smell follows me around, I can't get rid of it or mask it. Smells like indian spices and spray tan. My skin looks smoother though. I noticed after 2 days. ... show more

  • Not great for oily skin
I do think this product is very moisturizing. A little hit goes a long way. For a serum, it feels very THICK and oily. I could see it being good for dry skin, but not for me. Will not repurchase.

  • The Ordinary- Ascorbic Acid
I’ve recently incorporated this product into my skin care routine and it makes my skin glow. It’s very easy to use as I only apply a few drops to my cheeks and then pat into my skin. Even though I use a moisturizer close to the end of my routine this product also moisturizes my skin. I love it will be doing another purchase once it’s finished and doing a video review. ... show more
