Great
I love the eye cream – that’s all I have to say! The serum has a slightly unpleasant smell, but it makes my skin look more radiant; as I have oily skin, the serum feels a bit sticky

Not lile their other Vitamin C serum
My skin did great with Elf’s original Vitamin C serum so I thought this would be no different. However, this specific Vitamin C product has pure L-ascorbic Acid vs their original Vitamin C serum that had Ethyl Ascorbic Acid which is a lot milder. I woke up the next day after using with my skin dry and sandpaper with really bad acne like texture which I don’t have normally. I like the texture of the cream and it gave a nice brightening effect but not worth the reaction my skin had to it overall.

The products are fine but I can’t get past the smell and the way in lingers. A big no for me.

Brightest Bestie duos
The Brightest Besties Duo is a great combination. Love these two besties; they pair well and play together nicely. They both smell so fresh and Citrusy. They go on nice and smooth glides on the skin so flawless. Makes my eyes feel awake and refreshed not to mention the drops plays well together. They glide together on the skin nicely. Feels so buttery smooth under my eyes after and feels firmer and tighter to me. Its like a mini eyelift in a bottle.

Impressed!
I was impressed by these two products. I have super sensitive skin and have had bad experiences with vitamin c in the past, but these are gentle! I am a particular fan of the eye cream, I feel like it has made a noticeable difference after two weeks.

Awful smell
I really wanted to use it but the smell is so bad I can’t do it. If I knew how to return it I would. In the trash it goes!

Good budget option
It’s okay! The product goes on and absorbs nicely. It smells fresh and lightly citrus-y to start, but it does get a bit of that hot dog smell as you wear it throughout the day. It also grows to be a bit sticky and would not necessarily want to wear it under makeup. I have a lot of acne scarring that needs treated with products other than vitamin c so I don’t think it helped a ton, but in the areas of my skin without acne, it did brighten up my skin and make it glow. I just think there are better vitamin C products out there, but this is a good budget option if that it what you’re looking for!

Innovative actives, not the cleanest base.
This duo actually has some really nice active ingredients, like vitamin C derivatives, vitamin E, ferulic acid, panthenol, and caffeine. You can tell there was thought put into what goes into the formulas. That said, both products also include extra solvents and texture ingredients—such as glycols, surfactants, and silicones—that don’t really add skin benefits. With a cleaner supporting formula, these products could let the good ingredients shine even more.

So Far So Good!
I've only had the product a few days, but I like it a lot so far. It has the usual stickiness and smell that Vitamin C has, but once you wash your hands it's fine. So far so good!

Love this!
I really enjoyed this duo! The vitamin C serum feels lightweight, absorbs quickly, and gives my skin a nice healthy glow without feeling sticky. After a few uses, my skin looked brighter and more even. The eye cream is gentle and hydrating and makes my under-eyes look more refreshed. Such a great set for the price and perfect if you want to try vitamin C without committing to full sizes.

ELF never disappoints.
I have been using this pair for a month now & I am enjoying them a lot, my face looks refreshed. I use the serum with my moisturizer day & night. It doesn't feel as tacky like other Vitamin C serums, it’s very nice and lightweight. The eye-cream is light as well & a little goes a long way.

Lightweight product
This is a very lightweight product, which I appreciate. It does seem to brighten for a short time. I haven’t noticed any irritation. The only thing I’m not a fan of is the smell; but that doesn’t linger long.

Amazing product
This product feels great on the skin. It doesn't leave a greasy feeling, and it doesn't feel like it clogs your pores like other similar products often do. You see the results from the dup almost immediately. It takes full skin to bright and beautiful. I would 100% recommend this product.

Brightening Boost in a Cute Little Duo
I absolutely love the Brightest Besties Duo! For such an affordable price, this set delivers real results. The vitamin C + E + ferulic serum feels lightweight, absorbs quickly, and gives my skin a natural, healthy glow without any heavy or sticky feel. After a few weeks of consistent use, my complexion looks brighter and more even and it pairs beautifully under makeup. The under-eye cream is a standout for me — it’s hydrating, soothing, and really helps brighten tired-looking eyes. It layers nicely under concealer and doesn’t pill throughout the day. I’ve noticed my under-eye area looks more refreshed and less dull since adding this to my routine. Overall, this duo has added a nice boost to my skincare without irritating my sensitive skin. It’s a great everyday option if you’re looking for hydration, brightness, and glow especially at such a great value!
