As I've aged, my skin type seems to have changed, becoming closer to dry in winter. This product, followed by a moisturizer, works perfectly. I was hoping it would just brighten my complexion, but I'm thrilled that it also made my skin texture smoother. It contains spicules, but it wasn't as irritating as I expected. In my opinion, it was less tingling than The Ordinary's products.
ConsSince I only apply it at night, I'm not sure how it behaves under makeup or if it causes pilling. One inconvenience is that the container doesn't seem well-suited for the product's consistency. It's not really a texture that's easy to draw up with a dropper. Perhaps if the dropper handle was a bit more flexible, it might make a difference. Also, the scent is somewhat reminiscent of powdered medicine. If you're sensitive to fragrances, it might be best to test it first.
TipWhen you layer this serum under a moisturizer, you'll wake up to silky-smooth skin. You'll be amazed when you wash your face in the morning!

While it was difficult to see effects on deep blemishes in just a week (which is understandable), I noticed that minor acne scars quickly faded, making my skin tone look brighter overall. What's more, I was worried that such a high-concentration vitamin C product might irritate my skin, but I didn't experience any blemishes at all! What made this product stand out from other similar vitamin C serums was that the bottle comes completely sealed. It really feels like you're applying a concentrated vitamin C serum!
ConsAlthough the product instructions recommend refrigeration and I've been keeping it in the fridge, there's no cooling effect when applied. As my complexion keeps getting brighter, I'm tempted to use it day and night, but applying it during the day can actually cause blemishes to surface. Plus, it doesn't seem to play well with my emulsion - it pills terribly. I strongly recommend using it only at night! While the scent didn't bother me personally, there is a slightly artificial fragrance that you might want to consider before purchasing.
TipRemember to store it in the refrigerator and try to use it up within a month! I've been incorporating it into my nightly skincare routine after using a microneedle roller, followed by this Toning Vita Shot Serum, then finishing with an emulsion and cream. This combination works wonders! My dull, uneven complexion is noticeably improving over time.

I was really worried about irritation due to the vitamin C and spicules, but there's zero irritation. I have extremely sensitive skin prone to blemishes, redness, and enlarged pores, but this feels so gentle when applied. The next day, my skin looks radiant and smooth! The texture is creamy without being too runny, so it applies beautifully. It seems to absorb well too. It's so hydrating! This serum is perfect for winter use. You can definitely feel the moisturizing effect and see your complexion becoming clearer. The fragrance is lovely too - not overpowering, just a subtle freshness! I'll definitely repurchase when I run out. The lack of irritation is its most attractive feature!
ConsIt tastes a bit salty if it gets in your mouth, haha! And it does pill a little... but since I apply it at night, it's not a big deal.
TipIf I layer niacinamide, then this serum, followed by an emulsion before bed, I wake up with the most gorgeous glow!
