This Hanskin Vitamin C serum is is a light champagne color, which indicates that it's still fresh. With age, it will eventually turn orange or brown. It absorbs well and doesn't leave a sticky residue. It is packaged in an opaque white bottle, which is good because Vitamin C in the form of ascorbic acid is unstable, and deteriorates and becomes less effective with exposure to both light and air/oxygen. It's dispensed with an eyedropper, which is pretty good, although a pump dispenser would have been even better, since reducing air exposure keeps the product fresh for longer. Vitamin C is excellent for skincare because it's a potent antioxidant, and has brightening effects because it stimulates collagen production. There's also niacinamide at the end of the ingredient list, and it also brightens skin and encourages cell turnover/renewal. On the potential drawback side, the ingredients also contain grapefruit peel oil, which gives the serum a citrus scent. However, citrus oils are often irritating for those with sensitive skin. It's made in Korea. The full ingredient list actually printed on the box
