  • AMAZING VITAMIN C

    It’s my second time buying this serum. I immediately noticed a difference on my skin within a week of using the 20% VITAMIN C BRIGHTEN + FIRM SERUM. It gives a lit from within look. My hyperpigmentation from my occasional hormonal acne fade quicker. Love love love!!!

  • SO FAR SO GOOD !

    The texture is gooey and thick for it is a waterless base, but if you apply it after wetting your face with toner the serum sinks in nicely, leaving a slight glowy finish. It did not irritate my skin whatsoever and I feel it protects my face all day long from pollution and sun damage due to the high level of antioxidants in the serum.

  • RICH & NON-IRRITATING

    It's a very pleasant serum, rich in texture but not doesn't feel heavy. Use it for a couple of months and noticed that my post-acne spots are fading away.

PRODUCT INFORMATION

Our daily serum harnesses the cumulative effect of 20% Vitamin C, 2% Orange Extract Complex derived from citrus cells, and 0.05% Dimethylmethoxy Chromanol to create a targeted effect for all skin types. It forms a protective shield against daily external aggressors and pollutants while paving the way for brighter, firmer-looking skin. This antioxidant-rich formula promotes radiance-enhancing elasticity and fading dullness. Over time, skin glows with a brilliant smoothness.

Its waterless base ensures that the colour of this formula does not change, and it stays potent. The unique formula has an initial balm-like quality (due to pure diamond powder that imparts instant radiance) that may feel thick at first but melts instantly in contact with damp skin.

Very good daily serum

An overall really good Vitamin C daily serum. It is not sticky, which is something that happens often with vitamin c serums, and if you have very dry skin like I do, this leaves you also very hydrated and the skin fells pretty comfortable

Had high hopes but ...

I was told that this was THE product for fading hyperpigmentation, so I committed to the expense. So far no discernable difference. I know these things take time but I'm pretty disappointed to be honest. Fingers crossed by the time I get to the end of the bottle, I'll see some sort of improvement. I've tried so many product to no avail which is why I'd pinned my hopes on this product.

Love

I love this serum with vitamin C, it perfectly helps in the fight against skin imperfections, perfectly gives radiance. In general, it fights well with age-related changes, I will definitely take more of it. I especially like it in the cold season. In the morning, I apply it after washing and close the SPF. The skin shines during the day. Thanks!
