Q: Why does the bottle say apply 2-3 drops but the website says apply 2-3 pumps? Which is correct?

submitted by Ann23 - 2 years ago
  • A: Wow, that's a lot! One pump is sufficient for the face and neck. But you need to have your skin wet or damp first with a quality toner. May irritate skin. I suggest starting with 10% first.

    submitted byKay - 2 years ago
  • A: Don't let them fool you into using more! One pump is more than enough. If it isn't effective enough I'd say it's too expensive for what it is and the value really isn't as good as it seems.

    submitted byJJ - 2 years ago
  • A: Hi there! Thank you for notifying us of the issue you've experienced. Our instructions to apply 2-3 pumps are consistent with the packaging and website. At your convenience, we ask that you please reach out to support@timelessha.com so we may get more insight into this.

Q: Is this the same formula as on the Timeless website or reformulated specifically for Target? There is such a large price difference. Repeating Sunnygal's question as "Brand expert" didn't answer it.

submitted by Kimberly - 2 years ago
  • A: This is the same great formula that you can find at timelessha.com! Target is an authorized reseller of Timeless Skin Care, so we can assure you that you are receiving authentic product. Target scans third-party websites to price match and get customers the lowest price available. If you have any further questions, we invite you to reach out to us at support@timelessha.com (:

  • A: They all do. It's very annoying. Keep the bottle upright at all times to avoid leakage. Manufacturer has switched to glass bottles that don't leak, although I haven't gotten one yet.

Q: why is this product not an airtight dispenser? I purchased it thinking that it was.

submitted by Lisa P - 3 years ago
  • A: Though this bottle is still designed to keep air out at all times, we've recently changed the packaging for this particular product and size to include a dip tube pump. Should you have any further questions, please reach out to support@timelessha.com.

Q: what is the manufactured date and the expiry date on this product

submitted by DeeA - 3 years ago
  • A: Hi there! The MFG Date is provided on the product's box. Expiration will be about 1 year after the manufacturing date (MFG) with the recommended refrigeration. We recommend using this product within 3-6 months of receipt for optimal efficacy. Should you have any further questions, please reach out to our team at support@timelessha.com!

  • A: When the product starts yellowing, it is losing it's effectiveness. I use every day and 1 ounce just starts yellowing at the end of the bottle. A 4 ounce bottle would be throwing your money away.

Q: How fresh is this? My last bottle started to oxidize quickly.

submitted by Nova Girl - 4 years ago
  • A: Hello Nova Girl! All our products are manufactured in small batches to guarantee the freshest product. We also stamp the manufacturing date on each box so our customers know exactly how fresh their product is. We recommend storing your Vitamin C + E Ferulic Acid Serum in the refrigerator to slow down the oxidation process and keep your serum fresh and effective. Don't hesitate to contact us at support@timelessha.com if you have any other questions.

Q: Can I put an antioxidant rich oil on after this vitamin c? Or should I layer another serum before applying the oil?

submitted by crackedelm - 4 years ago
  • A: Hello, please see information below... "It would be fine to apply an antioxidant oil (Squalane Oil) to complement the Vitamin CEF Serum and finish with a preferred SPF moisturizer. You can also choose to use another serum once the Vitamin CEF Serum has completely absorbed into the skin. Much will depend on the pH of the products used in the same routine to avoid disrupting the skin's natural barrier. "

    MamaB - 5 days ago, Verified purchaser
    I've only used the product for a week, so I can't speak to how well it works. But upon first use I knew that I wouldn't buy again due to two issues: 1) dispensing is messy and runny; 2) it has a weird, unpleasant smell that lingers. The product will have to be a miracle worker for me to reconsider my initial impression.

    So glad they carry this brand at Target now. I swear by this serum. For the price, it can’t be beat. The C serum stays fresh so much longer than other brands, and it works better too. I am also a huge fan of their other products. I have sensitive skin and have never had any sensitivity from their stuff.

    I’ve used a few vitamin c serums that mimic the skinceuticals ferulic version and they all work well (including this serum) but what puts this one above all others is the packaging. Vitamin C oxidizes and this bottle prevents that. All others come in a dropper and you’re stuck with an expensive oxidized serum after a few weeks. This has stayed fresh since I purchased it a few months ago. Highly recommend!!

    I’ve spent hours trying to find the best Vitamin C Serum. Some are too expensive and some bad reviews. I’ve been using Timeless for about a year now and I must say this is the one for me. It makes my skin look hydrated, even skin tone and easy to apply. Yes, the scent is not my favorite, but if the product works, sometimes you got to get past the scent.

    This was yellow/oxidized from when I first got it. It’s super liquidy, which I hate cause it’s hard to apply neatly with just hands, and it smells bad. I wish I didn’t commit to the 4oz, cause it’s going to take forever to get thru. Not sure if it does much for my skin but doesn’t do anything bad to it, which is I still use it cause might as well. The new price is crazy though - I got this for 45.99 and wouldn’t pay that again, never mind over $78

    I have been using this product every morning for the past six years. It refreshes my skin, helps it feel more supple, and evens out any hyperpigmentation. I see some reviews mention a smell, but I don't smell much of anything? Be sure that the liquid is clear and yellowish when you use it. If you order from places other than Timeless directly, it might arrive already spoiled if the liquid is yellowish.

    I had high hopes for the Timeless Ferulic Vitamin C Serum after reading so many glowing reviews, but unfortunately, my experience was pretty disappointing. First, the shipping took longer than expected, which was frustrating but manageable. However, when the product finally arrived, things went downhill fast. After just a couple of uses, the serum started to irritate my skin significantly. My face broke out, and it felt uncomfortable and inflamed, which has never happened to me with other Vitamin C serums. I tried to power through for a few days, hoping my skin would adjust, but the irritation only got worse. To make matters worse, it doesn't seem like I can even get a refund, so I'm out the money for a product I can't use. Overall, it's been a disappointing experience, and I wouldn't recommend this serum if you have sensitive or reactive skin.
