As a vitamin C serum, I can feel the effects of it on pores and whitening!!! But honestly, it's not suitable for morning use! It makes my smile look yellow, and it's sticky and smudges my makeup, so it's a downside: I can't use it in the morning when I want to! But if you incorporate it into your nighttime skincare routine, it's great value for money!
It has a citrus (lemon maybe?) scent, which I love! The thick texture makes it easy to use and leaves my skin feeling moisturized after it penetrates. I was worried that it might be too harsh, but it didn't cause any irritation and even calmed down my red acne a little!
It didn't suit me. When I applied it to my face, it felt a bit stinging and itchy. However, I really liked the scent! It also felt like the vitamins were really penetrating, so I think it would be great for people who like it!
I guess people either love it or hate it, but I like the scent! The effect is neither good nor bad.
I've used it several times. It doesn't have the tuna-like scent that other vitamin C serums often have. It's easy to use and doesn't irritate me.
