    I am wondering if the product I received is old and ineffective? The serum is yellow and doesn’t seem to be working? My guess is that the serum has oxidized and isn’t effective? Very disappointed and will not be repurchasing.

    I have been blessed with good genes with my Italian complexion. I’ve always used a good line of products. A friend recommended OBAGI products. I started with this product, Vitamin C. My skin looks bright adding more even skin tone. This one is a keeper!!! I now use OBAGI as my full line skin products. If you question your current products…OBAGI is hands down THE VERY BEST. There is no price on beautiful skin! ❤️

    The serum is too light and watery and gives a slightly burning sensation. Also, have not seen much of difference.

    I’ve been an Obagi fan for years. It was the main skin care line at the medspa I use to work at. I bought this because I ran out of vitamin c 15% and I’ve been wanted to try something new. Unfortunately my skin had the worst reaction to this product. I do not think I’m allergic to the ingredients I am 80% sure it’s how it was stored. Hopefully there’s no permanent damage. Just skip it.

    My first experience with Obagi that was a disappointment. I think my skin is too old for this. I broke out in little pimples all over my face. So sorry for a bad review.

    I used it for 30 days religiously. no improvement in pigmentation, face isn't any brighter either. I used this in conjunction with the Obagi retinol in the pm. pros: didn't make my skin angry and I have very sensitive skin. it made my skin soft, that's about it. Not worth the high price tag if you're looking for visible brightening effects.

    i bought this product the Vitamin C + Arbutin Brightening serum and when I tried to open the cab The glass broke. So I couldn’t use the serum anymore due to the small glass particles that could have slide into my serum. Ughhh I’m so sad. I wish I would get a new one I really wanted to try the new serum :(

    I received this product completely in exchange for my honest review. I really like vitamin C serums and was glad to get to try another one. This is lightweight, not too sticky. It really helps brighten your face. Such a good addition to your skin routine. I can see a difference in my skin since I started using it :)

    I received this product complimentary for review purposes. I really enjoyed this product. I’ve been using it for about a month. It has a light texture that is quickly absorbed and works well under other skincare products. I’ve noticed that my skin is firmer and my overall complexion is more even toned. It is by pricey, but not for a really premium vit c serum.

    I received this product complimentary for testing purposes. I've had a great experience with this serum so far. It feels light on my skin, and once fully absorbed it doesn't leave my skin feeling tacky or wet. It also doesn't irritate my sensitive skin like other serums have done in the past. After using it for a few weeks, my skin definitely feels smoother and has an overall healthier appearance. Almost like a little life was breathed back into it. I can't say I've seen much improvement with my fine lines or my uneven skin tone. However, I know that it sometimes takes continued use for an extended period of time to achieve a visible improvement in certain areas. I absolutely plan to stick with this serum and I'm excited to see what my results will be after continued use. Overall, I think this is a quality product that definitely produces results. I would recommend giving it a try.

    I received this item for free for testing purposes. What can I say except wow. My skin tends to look dull or uneven a lot of the time. This really brightened and evened out my skin tone so well. It didn’t dry my skin or irritate it. Not sticky or tacky. All around a really great product.

    I received this serum for review. The texture is great, less sticky than other Vitamin-C serums I've used and the smell is pleasant. After just a week or so I noticed a difference in the brightness of my skin. Around my nose and under eyes are the most noticeable. This serum doesn't irritate my sensitive skin like others have.

    I received this complimentary through Influenster for my honest review. I really like this product definitely could see brightening of the skin after a few uses. I really like the dark bottle packaging. Four stars only because this is a product you have to use consistently over a period of time for best results and I have not used that long.
