Poor Packing

sadly I am returning this serum. Two reasons. The reason is this serum which has Vitamin C in it comes in a CLEAR container. Vitamin C or retinol products should be in a dark or opaque bottle to slow down oxidation and other damage accelerated by light. Air and light are the two biggest enemies to a serum’s integrity. Ingredients that oxidize such as vitamin-c and retinol need the most protection to slow down the oxidation process. So, that is reason I am returning this product.

Amazing!!

I tried this after a SoulCycle class in California, and was desperate for something to moisturize my face after I just washed it. I didn't want to walk around with super dry and itchy skin. As someone who normally has oily skin, and serums in the past didn't do me any favors, I was left with this one option. And let me tell you. It was awesome. I didn't get super oily as my day went on. It smells like pretty vegetables, and left my skin super hydrated and soft for the remainder of the day. I flew back home a few days later, and my first stop was Nordstrom to pick this guy up.

Not worth the money

I didn't notice a difference using this serum. It is too expensive for what it is. As soon as I applied it, my skin felt super sticky, then dry and TIGHT. It is very liquidy, and not moisturizing. The pump will spray out more than you need, so you have to carefully and slowly press down on it. I also read that the type of Vitamin c in this product is less affective, as it is water soluble. The first few ingredients made my skin flaky, Lactic Acid/ Malic Acid.

Good Stuff!

This is the 2nd bottle I've purchased. It is like your skin is drinking a green juice. I have problematic skin, with larger pores and my face drinks this up. In the morning, I notice reduced redness, more even skintone, reduction in blemishes, etc. It's pretty good and better than that - it's good for you!
