Q: Does this serum gives you break out because I had irritation and little pimple after applying truskin brand natural vitamin c serum

submitted by h patel - 4 years ago
  • A: Hello h patel! This should not cause any irritation to the skin but be sure to do a patch test prior to use. For all your future beauty questions, get real-time answers using the “Chat with a Virtual Beauty Consultant” button, found on every product page.

  • A: We clinically test all of our formulations to ensure safety in regards to irritation or sensitivity. With any topical cosmetic product, there is still potential for an adverse reaction based on individual skin type, combining with another product or a potential allergy. It's difficult to know the exact reason for your individual reaction but discontinuing all but one can help pinpoint. Slowly incorporate the other products one at a time to gauge your skin's response. Patch test before use and listen to your skin.

Q: Do you know the concentration of Vit C in the product? I'm looking for a product with at least 25% Vit C.

submitted by Turtlejoy - 6 years ago
  • A: Based on the ingredient list, there is no way this product has 22% vit C. Realistically, it could contain 10%, but I would guess less than that. Either way, it could still be effective.

    submitted bySuzy - 4 years ago
  • A: I believe its 22%. this product was originally named vitamin c 22% serum but they changed the name because many people were wary to try it since it sounded intense but it is quite a gentle serum.

    submitted byallyson - 6 years ago
  • A: Our Vitamin C Complex Serum delivers a unique and proprietary complex of L-Ascorbic Acid, Sodium Ascorbyl Phosphate, and a multi-fruit extract blend. We utilize encapsulation to ensure stability while providing a time released delivery that greatly reduces the potential risk of skin irritation. At NATURIUM, our priority is to develop highly-potent formulations while ensuring skin compatibility. While we don't disclose our specific ingredient percentages in our proprietary complex, we believe our formula should not irritate your skin, while providing a very high level of performance efficacy.

    Excellent formula! Buying Jumbo next!

    I started using a VitC serum years ago, and I loved how it worked, but it went bad quickly and felt a bit tacky on my skin, so I stopped using it. I recently got back into skincare and started my research anew. This stable formula is excellent: it has a lovely texture that isn't greasy and melts into my face, layering well with my moisturizer & SPF. I don't wear makeup, so I can't speak as to how it sits underneath. I use one pump every morning. The only caveat is that the form of VitC chosen for it's stability also means it's not as potent as others you might find. However, as someone who alternates days between actives on aging, dry, sensitive skin, I'll exchange speed of results for a milder, more stable, formula - just be consistent!

    Not for me!

    Sadly I have to say that I didn't have a good experience. it caused a big dermatitis around my nose and chin. I suspended for a couple days, dermatitis went away, back to this product and got it again.

    Good but tacky feeling

    I bought this serum in hopes it would help with my hyperpigmentation. Going on is fine it's thae feeling afterwards that I don't like. It's a tacky feeling until you apply moisturizer or sunscreen. I'd purchase again knowing that I needed to apply another layer over the serum.
