Not too happy with this
1Warning: I had big problem when used on my neck. Very raw, sore and bumpy skin. Didn't have the same problem with my face, and I am not even sensitive skin type. So be careful!
Report this reviewBe careful
1I noticed no difference to my skins brightness, this product caused my skin to get red burns maybe? Like patches of sore red skin. Very irritated. Very drying even on my super oily skin also smells gross if you don't wash hands straight away. Smells like meat. Also leaves an orange tinge on my fingers! Thought it was rust! Very sad as heard such good things!
Report this reviewPerfect if used correctly...
5I use this twice a week and mix it with a very hydrating moisturiser as it does dry your skin, but if this does happen, then moisture again straight after. You only need the tiniest bit of powder, don't use a whole scoop as you will find it really gritty on the skin and it doesn't sit well. I use twice a week after my thicker serum, mixed in with my moisturiser and it really does brighten the skin...
Report this reviewGreat but don't pre-mix
4I've been using this mixed with face creams or face oils. Honestly, it has helped brighten up just the red patches left by old spots. I pre-mixed a batch so I could take it when travelling - I know the powder is kept in a UV safe container but I thought it would be okay for a short time. It was not! It went yellow then orange and even when I was using it when it hadn't changed colour yet my face broke out in loads of little bumps. It's annoying because I'd rather not take the whole container with me travelling. So it does work but please don't pre-mix!
Report this reviewAwful
1One word: dermatitis. Even if used in a tiny amount and mixed with a soothing cream, oils or vitamin E. Odd because I haven't had this reaction from any other vitamin C products.
Report this reviewWarning- this really messed up my skin.
1I bought this and used it mixed with my moisturiser and with other ordinary serums- yes it tingles (felt more like small needles pricking my skin) and I ignored it because you are to expect that. Well i carry on and it completely dried out my skin (jaw/chin area) to the point that it looked like small burns in 2 areas and the rest completely dried out and rough (pumice stone rough!!) and you know how foundation sits on dry skin, right? So I’m basically looking like some kinda zombie waiting for my skin to heal up- not happy at all. My skin can be a tad sensitive, it’s mostly oily in the t-zone- be very careful, ladies!
Report this reviewAmazing.
5Best vitamin C product I used so far. Improved my pigmentation on my forehead plus my skin looks great.
Report this reviewI like it
5I like it, I mix it with the Resveratrol 3% + Ferulic Acid 3% only once per week (cause I have so many serums to use and it's not allowed to mix the ingredients between them) and I really like it.The only problem is that my pillow case gets an orange tint after this :(

5It's quick and easy mix with Vit E oil . I only apply at night so far so good.
