Pure VC Mellight Boosting Essence

product review positives
*I received this product for free from Picky and Dr. Ceuracle in exchange for my honest review. To put it succinctly, this vitamin C bubble Essence is faaaantastic!! Another freakin home run from Dr. Ceuracle 😻 [Texture] It does not sting (though sometimes stings on active acne), it doesn't have a strong scent, and the bubbles are fun!! It is not a dense foam at all, it actually melts down into a liquid pretty quickly. It remains feeling slightly tacky, but once it dries down there's no sticky feel. [Price] Depending on the site and sale, this can go for around $12-$30, but even at full price, I'd say it's worth it because it's powerful. And due to the bubbles, you actually only need about 1 pump, maaybe 2 for the entire face. [Packaging] I'm able to get smaller amounts out by only partially pressing the applicator lots of little times. It's not a great, super smooth component, but I've figured out how to get it to workfor me. Contains: •21.2% vitamin C (pure ascorbic acid, derivative 3-O-ethyl ascorbic acid, and plant-derived hippophae rhamnoides water) •niacinamide - brightens, minimizes pores temporarily •vitamin E - synergistically strengthens with vitamin C •ferulic acid - synergistically strengthens with vitamin E and C •idebenone - targets free radicals that damage DNA/RNA/proteins •glutathione - reduces melanin production, improves elasticity 🤦🏻‍♀️Story Time! I would have awesome before and after photos from where else I've been applying it, but they'd look like the medical pics you can find through a google search. 😬 What I mean by that is . . . I've been dealing with a horrible season of bug bites. Right now, I have 6 scars from bites on my left ankle, 3 on my right thigh, 3 on my right arm, 2 on my right breast, and 5 on my left arm. Most of these bites swelled to a ridiculously large mound that was hot to the touch and one even pressed on my knee cap that made it hurt to bend my leg. Of course I scratched them . . . a lot . . . and that made them oh so worse.👍 💖But this Essence has helped tremeeendously!! All the scars have very significantly faded, and the ones on my thigh that bruised from my aggressive scratching actually just look like my normal leg again! I will absolutely be repurchasing this vitamin C. I have such an even skin tone now on my face that when I cleanse off foundation, I don't look that different from when I had it on 👀 it's really weird in the best way possible 😆
product review negatives
⚠️ it is recommended you consult a doctor if pregnant ⚠️ Lavender oil, bergamot oil, rosemary leaf oil, Roman chamomile oil ⚠️21% is strong, so if you're not sure what your skin can tolerate, patch test at your jaw. I personally avoid using strong actives on my neck, because the skin is very thin there and can be much more sensitive than your face (mine definitely is), but I have used this down my neck a few times and it was okay. I did sometimes feel mild itching, but moisturizing on top helped that.

@MMtrynew Do you mean sun damage? It's hard for me to say what works on the sun spots on my cheek bones because I also use Tretinoin. So, I can't say about that, unfortunately.

Sounds really amazing! Does this work on normal dark spots?
