Q: What percentage it the vitamins C concentrate?
submitted by Rose - 8 years ago

Having a real hard time with the smell
The serum is okaaaaay. Nothing special, in my opinion. Also, the dropper is barely useful. The issue though? The smell is really off-putting. It smells somewhat stale or spoilt. Another reviewer complained about a "fragrance" but there is no fragrance that I can tell. It's just not something I enjoy putting on my face,

I like this product. I don’t love the dropper, but maybe it helps me not use too much product.

pocket friendly serum
I’ve been using this for a couple weeks and my skin looks way brighter. it feels light and sinks in fast, not sticky at all. the scent is nice but not too strong. honestly didn’t expect much, but it turned out really good. definitely keeping it in my routine.

Beware
I just purchased this product and after two days of use and terrible reaction my face broke out in the rash, and it felt like my skin was burnt I did not apply to around my eyes only on my face and yet my under my eyes were all swollen so just be careful. I’ve never had a product do this to me ever !

Smells Odd, Good Serum
Serum is great, but it smells weird. I usually shake it before applying & mix together with a moisturizer to offset the scent. Will continue to use until it’s empty, but won’t purchase again unless the smell is improved somehow.

Worked
When I say this worked I mean it. It made some dark spots on my face get so much lighter in a manner of weeks. Worth it all the way.

Smells terrible
When I first received this I tested on the back of my hand and immediately I was like - what smells so bad? And yes it was the serum. The aroma is a combination of plastic and dog poop.

Insufficient Time for Review BUT Condition of Shipping Box......
First time user but this review is on the packaging. Security tape did not survive the brute shipping handling. Edge of shipping carton crushed.. Inside bottle of product rolled around lose. Cannot tell if bottle is full or if some product was dispensed before shipment. Flaps of carton of the product do not have the small tape to seal it closed and product's carton also has a stain. Tried to add photos but for some reason, system will not allow it.

Allergic reaction
I liked the product but after 3 days of using it my face got really itchy and I woke up with hives on my jaw like. If you have sensitive skin stay away
