Q: Should i use this product im the day or ant night

submitted by T - 2 months ago
  • A: You can use the Vitamin C serum either in the morning or at night. It is generally encouraged in the morning as it acts like a shield to protect against free radicals or environmental damage. However, if it fits into your routine better at night time, it will still work to help support collagen and help brighten the look of skin over time.

Q: How does this product compare to La Roche Vit c serum? Does it have the same effects and results? When can I see a difference?

submitted by Mom of 3 - 2 months ago
  • A: Hello! While we’re unable to compare our products to other brands, we’re happy to share a bit about our Daily Defense Vitamin C. It’s a lightweight, hydrating serum designed for everyday use, formulated with a stable form of vitamin C and a blend of antioxidants to support overall skin wellness. Many of our customers incorporate it into their morning routine because it absorbs easily. As with most vitamin C serums, some first-time users notice changes in their skin’s appearance within a few weeks, though results can vary from person to person.

Love this vitamin c serum. No issues with any irritation on my sensitive skin. Love that it has ectoin - I wouldn’t mind an even higher concentration of ectoin to make this my main day serum!

Caution

My face is on fire! My whole face is red, swollen, itchy, and covered in welts. This has never happened with another serum. The photos are showing the state of my skin after using the Remedy 15% Vitamin C Serum. This is not acne. Prior to using it this morning, my skin was clear and blemish free. This is painful. ):

Beware - awful reaction

I do not have sensitive skin and I used this serum for 2 days and my skin has been dry and flaky for a week now. I'm not sure what's in this but it completely wrecked my skin. I'll be returning.

I wanted to like this so bad because the packaging is way more convenient for a consistent pump, but this gave my usually non-sensitive skin hives all over and my skin barrier is not happy with me. I’ve slathered myself in hydrocortisone as I type because this is so itchy.

I wanted to like this because the texture is great, but after 2 uses my face started burning and developed a rash/swelling. I’ve tolerated Sephora’s vitamin C product before, so not sure what ingredient may have contributed to the reaction.

Bad reaction.

Bad reaction. Burning, itchy hives all over my face and neck. Similar to others who have posted about bad reactions. Didn’t even apply on my neck and a swollen eyelid. Only used once.

returned

unfortunately this did not work for me. after about a week of daily use I started to experience some mild irritation. However this looked so beautiful under makeup leaving a nice glow. stayed somewhat tacky but gave makeup something to grip onto. silky serum texture that was hydrating enough for my oily/combo skin. if it wasn't for the irritation this would have been a holy grail so I definitely still recommend to see if it works for you.

Great product. Best vitamin c

I’m kind of a vitamin c skeptic. I just have never seen results with vitamin c serums. I just know I needed to have it in my routine. Closest one I liked was naturiums. But this is the best one so far. Now I do have tough skin and I’m in my late 30s. Hardly anything irritates my skin. My bf has sensitive dry skin. And he says he loves it too. That at first he felt a slight sting. And after a bottles worth. He no longer does. So if sensitive. I’d say work it in like every other day and follow with a barrier essence. If u have tough skin. This would be great for u.

Doesn’t irritate my sensitive skin; no scent, doesn’t feel heavy whatsoever… noticed my skin is a lot brighter with consistent use… 10/10 would buy again.

Ended up with SUPER dry skin. I think it might have been a reaction to it. I tried it again after 2 weeks of recovering and same thing happened. I’ve never been Vita C sensitive. So would not recommend this product!
