My Take:
Once you get over the smell, I’m quite liking this serum. It has a mid weight texture. It absorbs without any problems and my skin tolerates it quite well. I don’t comment on dark spot fading properties anymore since no vitamin c works for me for that, but it works well on the brightening aspects.
This comes in a 20ml dropper bottle so it is easy to finish before any oxidization occurs, although the brand says that this is shelf stable.
This is the most pungent Vitamin C serum, and maybe the most pungent skincare product, I’ve ever tried (tamanu oil is also up there). Be prepared for your face and hands to smell for awhile afterwards.
