C-firma contains a powerful antioxidant complex of 15% L-ascorbic acid, 0.5% Ferulic acid, 1% Vitamin E. C-Firma has a pH level of 3.3 and other cool things C-firma has a reservoir effect, which means it will stay active on skin for up to 72 hours and cannot be washed or scrubbed.
As for the packaging there is no doubt that I think all DE packaging is dazzling with bright colors that are pleasing to the eye. I love how innovative this brand. Their serum comes in an airtight bottle to keep the product fresh and not easily contaminated.
The texture is indeed a bit sticky because the ingredient from L-ascorbic acid is naturally sticky. But I have no problem with that I can mix it with B-hydra serum. For the smell, it is typical, many say it smells of hotdogs but I think it smells like traditional heated palm sugar like what I often see in my grandmother's house haha. But don't worry, the smell will disappear for a few moments when you apply it. The color of C-Firma will range from a pale yellow to an amber-orange. I always keep my serum in the mini fridge. The DE products doesn't use fragrances or essential oils.
(I love their concept " Suspicious six " without using essential oils, drying alcohols, silicones, chemical sunscreens, fragrances / dyes, SLS)
I use this serum in my AM routine. Usually I take 1-2 pumps and sometimes mix it with B-hydra. I like the performance of this serum to absorb quite quickly and give a glowing effect and make the pores look smaller. After months of using it I can say this is my favorite vitamin C serum. I have used my second bottle, this serum really makes my skin look brighter, smoother and make my skin look healthier and shiny. I saw some of the blemishes on my face disappear since using this serum. I really love this serum. Definitely my holy grail.
