Details & care
What it is: A unique de-aging booster that harnesses the full power of pure, fresh vitamin C at Clinique's highest concentration to brighten, even and retexturize skin.
What it does: This booster works as a daily treatment to help visibly rejuvenate skin from the outside, giving your de-aging a simple and seamless reinvigoration. From the first application, it helps brighten skin. Over time it helps reduce the appearance of age spots and the look of line and wrinkles. Pure vitamin C naturally degrades when exposed to oxygen, so it's most powerful when fresh. This stay-fresh packaging isolates the pure vitamin C until activation so it maintains its freshness and full power for maximum results.
How to use: Leave the cap on and remove foil. Firmly press the inner bulb twice to release the vitamin C powder into the soothing emulsion. Shake for 15 seconds and before each use. Remove the cap. Mix two drops with your moisturizer morning and night to power up your regular routine. Avoid the eye area. For full potency, use within seven days then discard. It retains its full power for seven days but it may darken due to normal vitamin C oxidation.

Adds a definite glow!
Initially, I wasn't very happy with this product because it states the "full potency" only lasts 7 days, but that you can continue using it (with limited potency) up to 10 days. The instructions say to squirt two drops into your palm and mix with your moisturizer. Well, after trying this method with my first container, I discovered I had way too much left over after 10 days, making the purchase a waste of money. I also didn't like having to figure out how much moisturizer to blob into my palm to mix with the C Booster, again sometimes wasting spendy moisturizer. So I decided to try my OWN method with the next container... I first apply my serum of choice (I like Laser Focus Serum), waiting a few minutes. Then I squirt one strong push of the C Booster "bulb" into my palm. It squirts out a dollop a bit smaller than a quarter (it's a fairly runny product). I spread it "as is" around my entire face, avoiding the eye area, and let it soak in on top of my serum. After waiting about 5 more minutes, I apply my moisturizer on top. This method works great for me! I'm not wasting any moisturizer. And I have exactly enough of the C Booster to last me 10 full days! No waste! I can definitely tell the difference in "glow" from using this product. Immediately. And after using a container for 10 days, my skin is definitely healthier looking. Due to the cost, I probably will only use the C Booster for 10 days once a month. But if I notice sun spots and dullness setting back in, I'll use it more frequently for sure.

Small amount but good product
I liked this serum and thought it did brighten my skin, but was surprised by how little was actually in the container...it only lasted 5-6 days before it was empty. Kind of expensive for less than a weeks worth

A must try product!
I have fallen in love with this product! It has given me a beautiful glow and everyone is asking me what I am doing to my skin. It has made my skin brighter, smoother, and more hydrated and supple. My makeup goes on so nicely now. I will never give this product up! I have recommended it to my mom, friends, and colleagues! I have tried many vitamin C serums and most are way too stimulating but, Clinique has truly outdone themselves this time.

Caused Adult Acne
Made my face break out with acne; I am fifty eight & never had pimples even as a teenager. Used per the instructions; didn't wing it. Disappointed. I've never experienced such a reaction from a beauty product.

Felt tingly
Unsure about 5 stars - started out glowingly. Immediate glow, felt like my skin was literally breathing, but after a few days my skin started to break out a bit. May return to give it another try, but I'm so sure my skin reacted to it.
