Description
Vitamin C is an effective antioxidant, brightens the skin tone and reduces signs of aging. In its direct form, Vitamin C is unstable in water. Ascorbyl Glucoside is a water-soluble derivative of Vitamin C. It is much more stable in water, but less potent than direct L-Ascorbic Acid. Being more compatible with water allows for a very pleasant serum texture. It is considered a gold standard of Vitamin C derivatives due to its high stability and comfortable use, but it's impossible to achieve extremely high L-Ascorbic Acid potency with this solution. Aside from the general benefits of direct Vitamin C, Ascorbyl Glucoside has been shown to offer specific skin brightening benefits.

Best way to fade scars!

I use this product after my prescription acne product in the morning, and before my SPF. This serum has faded my once-prominent acne scars, and my skin tone is even. Powerful, but doesn't irritate my skin at all. I hope they never stop making it!

Obsessed with Ordinary skin care line is an understatement! I am in my early 30’s and have recently developed aging spots. Pair that with acne scars and my skin is looking less than youthful. I’ve noticed a drastic difference in the appearance in my skin after just a short few weeks using this and I cannot wait to see the long term usage results.
Great product!

Definitely helps eliminate redness & evens my skin tone. I keep mine in the fridge, not sure if you're supposed to, but i think it being cold helps with my skin. I noticed a difference after 2 days. I apply it every morning & it lasts about 2 months for me
Love it!

I've been using this serum for a few weeks, and it's fantastic! My skin looks brighter, more even-toned, and feels great. It absorbs quickly and layers well with other products. A great, affordable option for a vitamin C boost!

I mean it's affordable it's just too strong for my 54 year old Latino combination post menopause skin. I wish I could use this affordable reputable product however I am sticking with cosrx thanks to Laura sales associate at elmwood location in harahan Louisiana… she's awesome she tested recommended products on my skin… it sunscreen, Clinique moisturizer, Cosrx too.. very happy with level of customer service
Works wonders on VERY acne prone skin

I use this almost every night after experiencing a HORRIFIC month long breakout episode. I had very textured, discolored, acne prone (cystic & hormonal), oily skin and this product has helped with every issue. My acne scars have faded in the past 3 weeks of consistent use, and I havent had another breakout even during my cycle. This is an amazing gentle exfoliatiant if your skin isnt too sensitive or dry. I only use this once a day at nighttime combined with the Ordinary's skin barrier serum and salacylic acid serum for the daytime. Ive never found anything thats able to do what this product has done for my skin. With these 3 products, my skin has completely been renewed and I hope this never gets discontinued!

Love this product. Will never stop using it. After only 3 days of using it day and night, my skin is starting to glow and look less dull. It's very subtle but I can tell. Can't wait to see results after a couple of weeks. My skin is stubbornly dehydrated, dull and sensitive. I use this as a 3rd step in a 4 step routine: cleanse, hydrating serum, then this product and lastly, a moisturiser. Try it for yourself and in case you are experiencing skin issues/ breakouts, simplify your routine and take off products from your routine, until you figure out which one does not mix well with others.

I've tried many different vitamin c serums and this is definitely one of my tops ones! I'd say it compares to the vichy vitamin c and this one is cheaper. definitely prefer this over la Roche posay's vitamin c.
Absolutly love the products

I wanted to try this to even out my skin tone, I have combination skin, but I was unable to use it all over my face, so I decided to try it just around my eyes alone with the caffeine serum for undereye bags. And it absolutely is helping to brighten that area. I will continue to use it. I've been using it now for about 6 months of with no adverse side effects. I recently had a bad reaction to some meds I was taking for my allergies that took the color out of the skin around my nose and had to stop using the product while I used the cream to clear up the rash. I just started back using the vitamin c serum about 2 weeks ago and it is already helping to return my skin to it's natural color. So it truly works.
Please keep making this product

I’ve used several high end as well as budget friendly vitamin C serums but this one is my number one choice. I noticed a significant difference in my skin after using daily for about 3 weeks. The most noticeable effect on my skin was brightness and an even skin tone.

I like that this serum has no strong smell and you only need 2 drops to cover your entire face. I used to use another Vitamin C serum but this one gives me a radiant glow. I love it ao far.

This quickly became one of my holy grail skincare items! Within a few weeks of using I noticed my dark spots fading (and I had a good number of them due to acen) and my friends were commenting on how dewey and glowing my skin was looking. I apply every morning after a hyaluronic toner and right before my moisturizer. I have had no issues with lack of absorption or pilling. 10/10!
really good

i've been using this about six weeks now, i thought vitamin c was a scam (which is why i went for this affordable one) but it's definitely making a difference lol. my acne dark marks are fading much faster than usual and my skin just looks happier overall. i do 3 drops every morning, my only issue is that it leaves my skin kind of tacky/sticky and i have to wait a little while to put on moisturizer or else it doesn't rub in at all. but overall quite satisfied and will repurchase

Texture is easy to spread. No scent, not sticky after feel. My moisturizer SPF lotions spreads smoothly. Just started using this specific product, will await to see any results. Have been using this brand (different products) for about 2 years.
