I was worried because my skin condition hasn't been great lately, but my skin actually took to it better than I expected. The texture is a thin liquid with low viscosity. I noticed that distinct metallic scent of pure vitamin C that I'd only heard about before. It took some getting used to at first, but I don't even notice it now. Though if it gets in your mouth, it tastes like you're eating a vitamin supplement... I only applied it at night, and I can definitely say my complexion looks brighter. I'll need to use it longer to see effects on small acne scars, but I'm satisfied with how it's evened out my skin tone overall.
ConsGiven the nature of the product, there is a sticky feeling and oiliness that can feel a bit heavy. Fortunately, I didn't experience any blemishes, but my skin did feel somewhat congested. I'm not sure if all pure vitamin C products are like this. The formula is quite runny, so when you squeeze the dropper onto your face, it tends to drip down quickly. It's a bit inconvenient having to pat it quickly on one cheek, then squeeze more out for the other side.
TipMake sure to refrigerate after opening. Be careful not to apply it to any areas with open wounds on your skin - it can sting if you've recently popped a pimple or have any cuts. Use caution around sensitive areas.

I've been using this product for a week, applying it every evening. While it's hard to make an exact comparison from photos due to different lighting and angles, I personally feel my complexion has brightened and my blemishes have noticeably faded! Interestingly, I found this more effective than retinol products I've used for spot treatment. Blemish reduction: I was really stressed about the spots on my cheeks after a breakout, but using this at night seemed to make my skin smoother and gradually fade the marks by morning! I also applied a spot-specific ointment as a final step. Skin tone: Being a vitamin-based product, it not only tackled blemishes but also brightened my overall complexion! My makeup looked more vibrant than usual, which was a great confidence boost. Scent: At first, I thought the fragrance was a bit unusual, but as I continued using it, I grew to enjoy its refreshing aroma. Will I repurchase? Absolutely! Although I initially received this product through a giveaway event, I'm so satisfied that I'll definitely buy it with my own money when I run out. It's been a while since I've found a product I like this much!
ConsStickiness: Overall, it feels quite heavy on the skin. Using it in summer can make your skin feel sticky, and if it gets in your eyes, they might feel a bit glued shut. Depending on personal preference, some might find it a bit suffocating. Staining: My pillowcase is white, and I noticed yellow stains where my face touched it. I think it might be due to the high vitamin content. It was quite surprising at first! Quantity vs Price: While the product is undeniably effective, I feel the price is a bit steep for the amount you get. It might be a bit of a splurge for students.
TipTry using toner pads before applying the vitamin blemish serum! This helped reduce irritation and prevented any tingling sensation for me. Afterwards, I followed up with my usual serum and moisturizer. The second photo shows my skin before using the serum, and the third photo shows the results after using it.

Usually, vitamin ampoules can be quite irritating and make skin sensitive, but this product wasn't harsh on my skin at all, which I loved. I didn't experience any blemishes after using it! It seems to help improve skin texture. I only applied it at night, but I noticed my skin felt smoother. The scent is quite neutral, so I don't think many people will have strong opinions about it either way. As it's a high-concentration vitamin product, I felt it was effective for spot care. I had some pigmentation left from acne scars, and I noticed they became much lighter!
ConsIt oxidizes quickly, so it needs to be refrigerated, which can be a bit inconvenient. However, I understand this is unavoidable due to the nature of vitamin ampoules. The finish feels a bit rich, so those with oily skin might find it a bit heavy.
TipIt might pill if applied before makeup, so I only used it after cleansing in the evening. To prevent any potential irritation, I followed up with a barrier cream, which worked well (I used Aestura cream). Also, applying a sheet mask after the ampoule can enhance absorption, so it might be good to finish with a mask after application.
