It's sticky. It does have a bit of a smell. But the pleasant feel makes up for that. I discovered this serum when my skin was rough and flaky from dryness, pollen, and yellow sand. It's sticky, so it's supposed to be for nighttime use, but I use it in the morning too. When I press it firmly onto my cheeks, which had been dry and stinging, it moisturizes them, sealing them in and preventing any external irritation! It's sticky, so be careful as it can affect your makeup a little, but I highly recommend it for those with sensitive skin.
I love vitamin C, so I was looking for a vitamin C serum and bought this one. At first glance, the price might seem high, but it's a large 100ml bottle, so it's very cost-effective. I only use vitamin C serum in the morning, but it should last me about six months. It's just the right thickness and leaves my skin feeling moisturized. Because it's so thick, it feels a little sticky right after application, but it's not too noticeable. It might be a little difficult to use in hot weather, but it might be good for those with dry skin or during the winter.
I tried a sample once, and the citrus scent reminded me of vinegared rice, which I didn't really like. This may have been because the lotion I used immediately before also had a strong scent. It didn't irritate my skin, but it absorbed quickly and had excellent moisturizing power, making it easy to use! It's a thick yellow liquid.
I was attracted to the large volume of this vitamin C serum, so I bought it without doing any research. It's a bit of a pain to get it out with the dropper, but it feels like a cross between a gel and a lotion, and it leaves my skin feeling plump and supple, which is fun.
It's easy to use and doesn't irritate the skin. I'm glad that it functions as both a lotion and a serum.
