What it is
Created to maximize the natural power of skin and achieve the translucent glow that lies beyond, this vitamin C lotion addresses dullness caused by dryness as you age. In addition to pure vitamin C and mineral-based vitamin C derivatives, it now also contains a sustained-release vitamin C derivative and a penetrating, moisturizing vitamin C derivative. It also contains Refine Control, a complex moisturizing ingredient that supports vitamin C. It also contains Clear Advanced Complex, a complex moisturizing ingredient that focuses on the translucency of moisturized, healthy skin. The slightly viscous texture penetrates deep into the stratum corneum with the unique Deep Target Delivery II penetration formula, just like a serum, leaving skin hydrated, translucent, firm, and radiant. *This product is a refill; the bottle is not included.
Ingredients
How to use
After washing your face, take an appropriate amount (about the size of a 500 yen coin) onto a cotton pad or the palm of your hand and gently apply it to your entire face. We recommend applying more to areas where dullness is a concern.

Since I'm a cost-effective person when it comes to lotions, I splurged and tried this one as part of my summer whitening routine. It's slightly thick and has a refreshing scent. It was easy to use. I definitely feel like my skin is a little less dull. I might buy it again this summer, but I'm not a big fan of Obagi packaging (I'm in my 40s, so I consider myself an older woman, but I personally think Obagi packaging is a bit old-fashioned. I do consider myself an older woman, but I don't want my packaging to look old-fashioned...), so if I find something better, I might try that.
I'm troubled by freckles, so I bought this because I like vitamin C. It moisturizes my skin just right. I find it easy to use. I don't feel any irritation from vitamin C, but I do feel it from Eternal.
I use this product from May to August during the summer. It has a thick but refreshing feel, isn't too heavy, and I like that I can feel the effects of the vitamin C. I also use the emulsion from the same series, and I feel that it has improved dullness and made my pores smaller. I plan to buy it again next summer. However, I find that it irritates my skin a little during the dry season, so I use Curel and other products in the winter.
It has a nice citrus scent and is a little thick, but it absorbs easily. It seems like the spots have lightened a little, but maybe nothing has changed...to be honest, I didn't notice anything even after using up the whole bottle. It didn't irritate my skin, which was great.
It's a thick lotion that absorbs quickly into the skin. It also seems to have a high moisturizing effect, so I'll probably buy it again.
