Arcona Youth Serum

This product is new to me but the ARCONA Line of beauty products is not. I bought this because it has the wine extract resveratrol, is advertised to firm, tone and improve pigmentation and broken capillaries and lighten and brighten skin tone and texture. I am also going to use the Wine Mask with resveratrol for the same results. The few days I have tried the Youth Serum, it seems to be living up to that. I am SO pleased that Nordstrom has brought in ARCONA as it is the line I always return to and use between using other good brands. It is quick, simple and absent of a greasy feel either day or night. I am waiting for the Magic Green Ice to be included at Nordstrom as well.

Horrible dispenser (PUMP)

i have been using this serum for about a week and i like how it makes my skin look, however the dispenser is horrible, the first time i used it i lost so much product because i pressed the pump on its entirety and it sprayed all over and gushed out uncontrollably. and even after that with the slightest pressure on the pump so much product comes out. i will be returning this. they need to improve the packaging. also im pretty sure that the serum i received was old because it was a dark yellow color which in vitamin C's usually means oxidation.

Like the product but the packaging is terrible

I love the arcona products, but their packaging is problematic. This product continues to leak out and get everywhere. I am not rough with my cosmetics so I am not sure why this is happening. I have probably lost $20 worth of product from the leaking.

Vitamin C A Better Complexion!!

Shine Bright like a Diamond! The Youth Serum lives up to its moniker and the results are in..... a healthy J-Lo Glow in a bottle! Brilliant under my moisturizer without the sting or tingle other Vitamin C products have. I occasionally cocktail this into the moisturizer if I’m running a bit late. Beauty Bonus is that it reveals and peels the years off my complexion! Love this!

Dark spots look a little lighter!

I've only been using this product for a few weeks but I see improvement in the dark spots and I feel like my skin texture is finer. So far so good. Like that it doesn't have a perfume smell. This is not a gel serum, it's very liquidy, so you have to pump it into your palm, then pat a fingertip into the pool of product in your palm and apply to your face it with your fingertip. Also love the Arcona line.

Light but effective

When I received this serum, I was not thrilled that it ran like water thru my hands. but I stuck with it and just splashed it in my face.I can really see that my face has brightened!!!!Great serum for summer when you must layer so many products on your face.
