This is the most amazing serum. Especially at the price. In Ulta Beauty, I'd compare this serum to 178 buck serum.

Great product, but small container
Love the product. Slightly irritating at first, but my skin got used to it. Wish it came in a bigger bottle… only lasted a month for me

Horrid smell
I was told by a dermatologist that this is a fantastic line. I did buy the moisturizer and I like it. This vit c I wanted to love , but it smells like rotten eggs. It also doesn’t feel good on the skin. I use it only at night. I plan to return it.

mY SKIN HAD BAD REACTION TO SERUM.
developed BAD SENSITIVITY FROM VITAMIN C I SUPPOSE AND I DO NOT HAVE OVERLY SENSITIVE SKIN. ALL OF MY OTHER PRODUCTS I USED DAILY FOR YEARS STARTED TO BURN MY SKIN AFTER I USED C SERUM AT THE END OF THE DAY (ALSO I WEAR SUNSCREEN RELIGIOUSLY) SO I HAD TO STOP. i STILL LOVE AND USE MOISTURIZER.

Really helping chemo skin
I am on chemotherapy and having lots of skin issues. Santa put this in my stocking. It seems to really be helping with the loss of firmness in my skin. It's great to find something that makes this journey a little better.

Beware-feels like topical lava on sensitive skin!!!
DO NOT USE IF YOU HAVE ROSACEA!!! I have Erythematotelangiectatic Rosacea (ETR), and this stuff was like like putting lava on my face. I wish I had taken pictures because it was insane. My face was an angry, beet red and I could actually feel the heat radiating from my cheeks. I'm going to assume that my skin reacted to the vitamin C in the serum, but who really knows. I'm 38 years old and spent a lot of time in tanning beds and worshipping the sun until my late 20s. Right around my first pregnancy about 5 years ago, I started to notice all the damage I did starting to manifest-so I've been trying to get ahead of the age lines and hyperpigmentation caused by countless sunburns. Anyways, I was hoping that I could add this to my regimen, but nope. I think I might have been better off rubbing ghost pepper salsa on my face. I'm sure this stuff is great for many people, but unfortunately, I'm not one of those people 🤷♂️.

Perfect for sensitive skin and budget friendly
Just turned 50 and after trying so many expensive/ "top notch" serums, this one definitely has been the best for my sensitive skin and the price is budget friendly!

Really good serum just two changes needed!
THis is an excellent vitamin c serum the only two changes Neutrogena should make is put this in an airless pump as vitamin c can oxidize in the air and two, it does smell like hot dog water but the smell does not linger for too long. Overall this is a really good serum just make these two changes and if you can't get rid of the smell, at least put it in an airless pump bottle.

Irritarion, Sticky and oily
I love the neutrogena line but this product was awful to me. It burned / irritated my skin and left an awful sticky oily feeling on it all day.

Terrible smell
I just bought this yesterday and when i used it today and put it on my face, i was immediately hit with a disgusting smell. I’m not sure if its supposed to smell like that or if the product has gone bad but its enough to turn me off from using it again.

Rancid Beef Grease
It smells like rancid meat grease, but works great. I reached out to Neutrogena and they took the lot number and acted like it wasn’t normal, but didn’t explicitly say if it was or wasn’t when I asked. I returned the product.

It smells awful
I unfortunately can’t speak to its effectiveness, bc I was only able to use this once. The smell is so horrendous, smells like others say of beef/broth/meat and also very chemically/metallic. If it werent for my kids not wanting to be around me when I have this on, they I might have continued. Not collected as part of a promo, so this is an unbiased opinion. Would have loved to be able to keep it though.

The smell is horrendous.
i'm not sure of this product's theraputic benefits because i can't get past the smell. i'm wondering if the collagen is 'bovine' because this smells so meaty. maybe i got a bad batch but i'm afraid i'll smell like steak tartar - and not in a good way!!!

Amazing Serum
I can’t believe how much I love this over the more expensive Skin Ceuticals vitamin C serums I’ve been using. It’s amazing

Ok product
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This product was just ok. I didn’t see a lot of change in my skin during the time I was using it. The scent is peculiar as I get an orange smell but also chemical smell.

Dissapointing product
Very oily and smelly consistency, did not dry down for hours. My skin felt very tacky for most of the day.

Good serum!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Overall this is a pretty good serum! I do like the consistency and how it soaks into my skin. My skin does look a little clearer, but it's too early to tell how much of a significant difference it might make.

Good Serum
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I tried the Neutrogena Collagen Bank 15% Vitamin C Serum for two weeks and I already see the effects of it! My skin tone is more even and looks brighter after everyday use, and the results show faster than when I used other vit c products. I did not have any irritation but my skin is used to high concentrations
