It’s working
I’ve been using this serum in conjunction with hyaluronic acid and retinol for the past six months. I can see a difference in my skin; specifically it looks brighter, plumper and less dry, and my age spots are slightly lighter. At age 70, it’s nice to be told my skin looks like a 50 year old’s. I can’t say it’s the vitamin c serum alone but certainly the combination of the three is a winner. Unlike other vitamin c creams on the market that are gritty, this one goes on super smoothly. I’ve ordered the larger size and plan to keep using it.

Loyal Customer!
I have used this product for over 10 years. I mix a few drops with Kiehls Ultra Facial Cream and use this combination twice a day.

This product saved my skin from the winter heat.
This is a new product for me. With our exceptionally cold winter, I needed some extra help to deal with the dryness created by our over-worked heating system. After the first night, I could see an improvement. It is a miracle cream!

I have used this for years, and my dermatologist recommended it. I trust Kiehl's, and use this every day.

Not so sure
The product is nice, but my skin started breaking out which hasn't happened in ages. Also caused redness and irritation. Now I have a bottle of product that I cannot use.

Longtime repurchased but what changed?
Did the formula change? It used to be yellow instead of white and worked more immediately. I’m not noticing a difference the way I did in the last.
1 reply from Consumer Care Center team - 1 month ago
Hello Dvs214! We updated our Powerful-Strength Vitamin C Serum to a more potent 12.5% Vitamin C formula, now enriched with Hyaluronic Acid for deeper hydration. The change from yellow to white is a sign of improved stability! Pure Vitamin C is naturally white; a yellow tint can indicate oxidation, which reduces the product's strength. Our stabilized formula ensures you receive maximum potency in every application. While the immediate "feel" may differ from the original, we recommend continued use to see long-term results. If you're not completely satisfied, please reach out to our Customer Service team for assistance with a return or alternative!

Not for me
The second time I used it. It immediately made my skin hot and irritated. The serum felt very gritty and dry. Soon after I had mini red bumps all over my face. I stopped using it.

Starts working fast!
This serum changed the appearance of my skin within only the first 3 days of using it. I am glowing like never before!! It feels very luxurious upon application, the texture is silky and warming. It has already evened out my skin after such a short time of using it. My skin feels softer and healthier than it did before I used it. It is perfect for sensitive skin, it doesn’t break me out or feel irritating at all. Overall so happy I found this, it’s made a world’s difference already!

Best product for dry fabric skin
This product is awesome! I use it 2x daily. My skin is dewy all the time which is what I was looking for. I'm 72 & struggle with dry skin & this is my solution!

Love love love
My favorite vitamin c serum. I have tried so many of these and nothing feels as nice on my skin as this. It is light weight, nice scent, and visibly adds brightness to my skin. Best one I’ve found on the market!

Noticeable results
When I use this continuously, my pores get smaller and my mature skin looks smoother. I took one star off bc it can be irritating for a sensitive skin gal like me, depending on the skin condition of the day. I use it in the morning, 3-4 times per week. It's not greasy and has a matte finish. It doesn't affect my makeup/sunscreen application.
