Vitamin C BRIGHTENING SERUM

Causes Itching

Causes Allergic Reactions

Not Velvety

Scent Fades Quickly

Subtle Scent

Sits on Skin

Contains Artificial Fragrance

Not Irritating

Doesn't Sting

Boosts Radiance

Improves Skin Tone

Not Sticky

Has a Brightening Effect

Pleasant Scent

While it's nice for a light application, it seems to have little to no noticeable effect.

For a vitamin product, it has a delightful scent and absorbs wonderfully. It's lightweight with no excess oil, making it perfect for a light application.

비타민씨 브라이트닝 세럼

A gradual and subtle brightening, rather than rapid and definitive whitening effects

Brightening, smooth finish, good absorption, non-irritating to sensitive skin

I recommend applying it before essence, after skin.

After absorption, there is no significant moisturizing effect. For dry skin, be sure to apply a moisturizing serum on top.

My skin is dry with many blemishes.
I have been consistently applying Vitamin C.
I received Hwahae treatments at the dermatologist, but they did not seem to suit me as my skin became increasingly darker and the unseen freckles became more pronounced, so I got a refund after about 3 months of treatment.
It seems Vitamin C is more effective for me.
It is not sticky and absorbs quickly, so even oily skin types can use it without any issues.
It also has a large 40ml volume and contains niacinamide, a skin-lightening ingredient.

The vitamin C content isn't very high. That's probably why it didn't cause any irritation.

Review after using the entire bottle:
The Mediheal Vitamin C Brightening Serum was definitely gentle on my skin.
It absorbed smoothly without irritation, making it comfortable even for sensitive skin.
Non-sticky with a fresh finish, it's perfect as a daily serum.
I could clearly feel my complexion evening out and gaining vitality with just this one serum!

It's pretty decent to use overall, and it doesn't cause any blemishes.

I just picked up whatever caught my eye, and I'm glad I did. It's perfect for light application and doesn't irritate my skin at all.

While it does provide hydration, I noticed it pills slightly when applied before makeup. So I only use it before going to bed!

I've been using this for 4 months now. I always apply it before bed, and I love how it leaves my skin feeling moisturized and supple. While it doesn't dramatically whiten my face, I do notice a gradual brightening effect, so I'm consistently applying it. I'll likely keep purchasing this! (For reference, I have dry skin, and this product suits me well)

It's a bit disappointing that the vitamin content doesn't seem very high.

I love that it's mixed with niacinamide. It's hydrating and not sticky, which is great.

It absorbs well when applied after your basic skincare routine.

It's a bit sticky, and when my skin is super sensitive, it can cause a slight tingling sensation.

My complexion has brightened and it seems like many of my blemishes have faded away, which I'm really happy about.

Nothing negative to say. The price, maybe? But even then, it's relatively affordable compared to other brightening serums, so I can't really complain.

The hydration is fantastic, and from my perspective, there's absolutely no irritation. I love that it contains effective whitening ingredients. Since it's oil-free, I can apply it generously without feeling heavy. My perfect routine is applying toner, then slathering on this serum, letting it absorb, and following up with cream. It's just perfect that way! To be honest, I'm not very perceptive when it comes to brightening effects, but I figure since the ingredients are there, they must be doing something.

I only apply brightening products and vitamin-based skincare as part of my nighttime routine, never in the morning or during the day!

While I'm very satisfied with how it improves skin texture, hydration, and overall complexion, it doesn't seem to work well on old or deep blemishes. It seems that for those stubborn spots, skincare products alone aren't enough, and laser treatments at a dermatologist might be the only solution.

I usually don't react well to vitamin products, but this brightening serum is the only one that works for me! For a clear and radiant complexion, Mediheal proves to be a trusted choice once again. The texture is rich, it brightens my skin tone, and makeup applies smoothly over it! 

Having had good experiences with most Mediheal products, I carefully checked the ingredients before trying this one. Upon opening, I was greeted by a pleasant citrusy scent reminiscent of lemon candy or black sugar scrub. Even when applied right after cleansing, there's no tingling sensation! It absorbs quickly and leaves my skin feeling smooth while combating dryness.

I've tried layering it multiple times, and each application absorbs without any stickiness, leaving my skin feeling firm. As I'm in early pregnancy, I checked for ingredients to avoid, and this gentle product seems safe. Thankfully, it suits my skin well!

I mainly apply multiple layers before bed, and when I look in the mirror while washing my face in the morning, my skin looks brighter as if I've had a good night's sleep! While I'm not sure about its effect on pores, my overall complexion has become clearer and my skin texture firmer. The fact that it doesn't irritate my face shows how gentle this product is! I expect to see even more improvement after finishing the whole bottle - I have high hopes!

I apply this serum and then lock it in with a modeling mask.
Double the absorption and effectiveness!

Fragrance 
It seems they've added artificial fragrance to create a fresh scent.
While the scent itself isn't bad,
I prefer fragrance-free products except for natural scents, so this was disappointing.
(However, the scent dissipates quickly, so it's not overwhelming)

Price vs. Volume
Although I bought it on sale,
I felt the volume was too small since I use 3-4 pumps each time.
Compared to that... the original price is quite high!
I'll probably only purchase it when it's on sale

------------------------------
Previously, I couldn't use Vitamin C products, which are great for dark spots and antioxidants, because my skin turned red and broke out after using a certain Vitamin C serum.

But when my beloved Mediheal released a Vitamin C serum, I decided to give it a try.

I've always loved using Mediheal's Vitamin C sheet masks, so I bought this without any worries!

As expected, this product exceeded my expectations.

It instantly brightens my complexion

The bouncy, hydrating texture doesn't leave my skin feeling dry, so I'm very satisfied.

However, you might wonder why I gave it 4 stars instead of 5...
