I'm pleased to say it lived up to my expectations, especially in fading blemish marks. Within days of use, I noticed my complexion looked slightly more even and radiant, and I could see a visible reduction in dull areas. The serum worked hard on improving my skin tone and clearing up dark spots. I was relieved to find that it didn't cause any breakouts or clog my pores, which can sometimes happen with potent treatments. Pros: • Excellent for fading hyperpigmentation and blemish marks • Noticeably evens out skin tone and adds radiance • Doesn't trigger acne or congested skin
ConsCons: • May cause irritation for those with sensitive skin • Can lead to redness and a slight tingling sensation upon application • Better suited for nighttime use and occasional rather than daily application
TipOverall assessment: While I highly recommend this serum for those seeking effective results in tackling hyperpigmentation, I'd advise caution for those with super sensitive skin. A patch test is absolutely essential before incorporating it into your skincare routine. As someone with sensitive skin, I experienced some redness and a slight burning sensation after application. I found it necessary to follow up with soothing skincare, which made daily use a bit challenging. Despite these minor setbacks, the visible improvements in my skin tone and the fading of dark spots make this serum a worthwhile addition to my skincare arsenal. Just remember to use it judiciously and perhaps start with less frequent applications to gauge your skin's tolerance.

While I often apply vitamin-rich products at night due to sun sensitivity, I learned it's more effective when used during the day. As a result, my uneven skin tone has significantly improved.
ConsOn days when I have a lot of blemishes, it can cause a tingling sensation. I guess that's unavoidable.

However, my skin seemed to react, causing a tingling sensation. So I brought it to work and now I'm using it on my feet instead.
ConsIt stings, and I noticed some small bumps appearing on my face, so I had to stop using it.

I've heard that vitamin C can cause tingling, so I tried this as an entry-level product. The effects are quite good, so I'm planning to gradually move to a higher concentration for continued use.
ConsAt first application, you might not notice much, but as time passes, there's a feeling of dryness, making it necessary to follow up with a moisturizer. The scent is somewhat off-putting, but I continued using it because of its effectiveness. Usually, there's no irritation, but on days when my skin is particularly sensitive, I do experience a slight tingling sensation.
TipDespite some drawbacks, I highly recommend this product as the improvement in complexion outweighs the minor issues. I plan to keep using it myself.

I think my dark spots and blemishes might be fading!
ConsWhen I applied it alone, without mixing it with my usual cream, it stung quite a bit. It's essential to control the amount carefully when first using it!

While I rarely get blemishes, my skin is thin and prone to fine lines. I prefer a moisturizing finish as my skin quickly becomes dry if not properly hydrated. The most satisfying aspect of using this product was the noticeable brightening effect in the morning. After applying it before bed, I'd wake up to see a clearer complexion in the mirror. Rather than an instant whitening effect, it felt like my skin tone was more even. Unlike many vitamin products that can feel heavy or sticky, this serum is lightweight and absorbs quickly, making it comfortable to use both morning and night. Another advantage is its reasonable price. Many vitamin serums are expensive and difficult to use consistently, but this product is relatively affordable. Since consistent use is key for seeing results, I think it's important to choose a cost-effective product, and this one definitely satisfied me in that regard.
ConsWhen it comes to vitamin serums, many expect an instant brightening effect, but I didn't experience the dramatic results I've seen in YouTube or Instagram reviews. While consistent use does seem to even out the skin tone, it doesn't dramatically brighten after just one or two uses. Another downside is that it can cause a tingling sensation when used on days when your skin isn't in its best condition. As someone with redness-prone skin, I felt a slight burning sensation right after application. Fortunately, it subsides over time, but it might be best to avoid using it on days when your skin feels sensitive. Also, possibly due to the vitamin content, when I used an exfoliating toner the next morning, I noticed a yellowish tint on the cotton pad. It didn't feel like residual serum, but it might be a good idea to be thorough with your exfoliating toner.
TipThis product is said to be most effective when applied immediately after cleansing, so it might be best to keep it in the bathroom for immediate use. Also, using it together with the niacinamide product from the same line can enhance the brightening effect in the morning. If you want to focus on intensive brightening care, I recommend using them together!

ConsThere's a slight tingling sensation when you first apply it, but it's not bothersome at all. Overall, it's just a great product.
