#ChamisThoughts
You can tell by the list of ingredients that this serum is special! It has Niacinamide plus Vitamin C extracts! Talk about double brightening in one!
~Love the smell (a very subtle orange smell) Some vitamin c smells like medicine but this one is refreshing.
~Consistency is a bit thick and color is milky white.
~Packaging is a cute sparkly white opaque bottle which I think is better for a vit c because it’s sensitive to light and temp.
~Seems like I don’t need too much effort to store this in the fridge coz I’ve had it just sitting in my desk and it hasn’t oxidized yet. But to prolong its life, do store it in a cool place and away from sunlight just like normal vitamin serums are stored.
~Feels tacky on first application but once fully absorbed, it’s not sticky at all. It’s actually the first time I enjoyed a Vit C serum that is not tacky.
~So far this is the gentlest Vit C I used, kudos to the team for the effort of having the ingredients 90% natural or natural-origin. It doesn’t sting at all. I can’t vouch if this is great for sensitive skin because I don’t have a sensitive skin but it doesn’t feel hot and no tingling sensations.
~It did brighten my skin and lighten my dark spots but results are not immediate. I used this for 2-3 weeks and you can see in the picture that it lightened.
